가정의 위험요인, 자아탄력성 및 또래관계의 질이 청소년의 문제행동에 미치는 영향

This study examined the influence of family risk factors, ego-resilience, and quality of peer relationships on adolescent problem behaviors in a sample of 335 8th grade students (178 boys and 157 girls). They responded to four kinds of questionnaires. Data were analyzed by independent t-tests, correlations, and multiple regressions. Results showed that family risk factors had direct effects on ego-resilience which directly affected quality of peer relationships. Family risk factors, ego-resilience and quality of peer relationships had direct effects on internalizing problem behaviors. Family risk factors and quality of peer relationships had direct effects on externalizing problem behaviors. Family risk factors indirectly influenced adolescent internalizing/externalizing problem behaviors through ego-resilience and quality of peer relationships.
