In South Korea, the number of multicultural families is steadily increasing. The purpose of the study was to examine and identify the process of adaptation of elderly women to foreign daughters-in-law in multicultural families in rural settings.
This is a qualitative study and applies a grounded theory method. Data were collected through individual in-depth interviews between February and April 2019, involving 15 elderly women with foreign daughters-in-law, and analyzed employing Corbin and Strauss's grounded theory.
The results are demonstrated through the "Chaotic," "Resistive," "Exploratory," "Transitional," and "Receptive" periods, based on the flow of time.
The findings contribute to the practice and intervention of multicultural nursing by examining the adaptation process and providing future direction on the adaptation of elderly women who are part of multicultural families.
在韩国，多元文化家庭的数量正在稳步增加。本研究的目的是检验和确定农村地区多元文化家庭中老年妇女对外国儿媳的适应过程。
这是一项定性研究，采用扎根理论方法。数据收集于 2019 年 2 月至 4 月期间通过 15 名与外国儿媳同住的老年妇女的个体深入访谈进行，采用科宾和斯特劳斯的扎根理论进行分析。
根据时间的流动，结果通过“混沌”、“抵触”、“探索”、“过渡”和“接纳”阶段展示。
这些发现通过检验适应过程，为多元文化护理的实践和干预做出了贡献，并为多元文化家庭中老年妇女的适应提供了未来的方向。
