AB - This study aimed to investigate the differences in the touch patterns to the mother's internal states. 960 mothers of babies aged from 3 to 36 months old were involved. The differences of touch patterns to mother's depression, maternal attitude scale, and parenting stress index, were analysed. According to the results, there are no differences in the touch dimensions to mother's depression. Regardless of the depression, mothers used more nurturing touch than harsh touch. However, more severely depressive mothers used the kissing and the stroking of the nurturing touch than mild depressive mothers. Regarding to the mother's attitude and the parenting stress of their infants, more nurturing touch was used than harsh touch. Moreover, mothers with low parenting stress index used many harsh touch patterns than those with high parenting stress index(especially, they used lifting). In general, although Korean mothers are internally uncomfortable, they affectionately touched their infants. This could be explained with korean culture in which mothers do not usually express their internal uncomfortableness.
