Abstract

This study was investigated the relationship between the stress and suicidal ideation of adolescents from multi-cultural families. For the purpose, the study incorporated data of Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey 2011-2 and attempted to understand factors of their suicide ideation and reasons of stress, targeting 607 boy students and 543 girl students. For a statistical analysis, SPSS version 17.0 was used. During the analysis, the students one of which parents was not born in Korea were considered as those from multi-cultural families and statistical significance was set to be p<0.05, To look into relations between suicide ideation and reasons of stress with the former as a subordinate variable, the study figured out Odds Ratio(OR) through a simple logistics analysis and a complex sample was set for the analysis. Boy students had 2.70 times more suicide ideation due to stress from associates than girl students while girl students had 2.50 times more suicide ideation due to conflicts with parents than boy students. In conclusion, as there were various reasons of stress relating to individuals, families and school life which may affect suicide ideation of adolescents from multi-cultural families, our society should pay attention especially to improvement of relationships with parents and friends to prevent and control their suicide ideation.

우리나라 다문화가정 청소년들을 대상으로 스트레스와 자살생각과의 관련성을 파악하고자 2011년 7차와 2012년 8차 청소년건강행태 온라인조사의 자료를 통합하여 남학생 607명, 여학생 543명을 대상으로 자살생각과의 관련요인을 스트레스의 원인을 중심으로 파악하고자 하였다. 통계 프로그램은 SPSS version 17.0을 이용하였다. 통계분석시 부모 두 분 중 한분이 태어난 곳이 한국이 아닌 학생을 다문화가정 청소년으로 하였고, 통계적 유의성은 p<0.05로 하였다. 자살생각 유무를 종속변수로 하여 자살생각과 스트레스 원인과의 관련성을 알아보고자 단순 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통해 비차비(Odds Ratio, OR)를 산출 하였으며, 복합표본을 설정하여 분석을 하였다. 남학생의 경우 교우들과의 문제로 인한 스트레스를 받은 학생의 자살생각이 2.70배 높았고, 여학생의 경우 부모님과의 갈등으로 인한 스트레스를 받는 학생의 자살생각이 2.50배 높았다. 결론적으로 다문화가정의 청소년들의 자살생각에 영양을 미칠 수 있는 개인, 가정, 학교생활과 관련된 여러 스트레스의 원인 중 부모와 친구들과의 관계개선을 통해 다문화가정의 청소년의 자살 생각의 예방과 관리를 위해 사회적인 관심이 필요하다고 생각된다.
