Abstract

Because a variety of factors affects children in the development process in order to act practice of life safety behaviors aggressively, this study examined the relationships among academic stress, self-esteem and practice of life safety behaviors of school-age children. Data was collected through a self reported structured questionnaire from 510 Korean school-age children using convenient sampling methods from April 1 to 30, 2013. Stepwise multiple regression revealed the Help of safety education (${\beta}=.254$, p<.001), academic stress (${\beta}=-.222$, p<.001), grade(${\beta}=.201$, p<.001), gender(${\beta}=-.180$, p<.001) to be significant predictors of practice of life safety behaviors of school-age children. These variables accounted for 23.9% of practice of life safety behaviors. Therefore, to facilitate the practice life safety behaviors in school-age children, academic stress needs to be decreased by efficient management and intervention.

다양한 요인들이 발달과정에 있는 아동이 안전생활 실천행동을 적극적으로 실천하는데 영향을 주므로, 본 연구는 학령기 아동을 대상으로 학업스트레스, 자아존중감, 안전생활 실천행동 간의 관계를 파악하기 위해 실시되었다. 서울, 경상도, 경기도, 충청도, 전라도 소재의 초등학교 5, 6학년 510명을 대상으로 2013년 4월 1일부터 4월 30일까지 설문조사를 시행하였다. 연구결과, 안전생활 실천행동 영향요인은 안전교육 도움정도(${\beta}=.254$, p<.001), 학업스트레스(${\beta}=-.222$, p<.001), 학년(${\beta}=.201$, p<.001), 성별(${\beta}=-.180$, p<.001)로 나타났고, 이 변수들의 설명력은 23.9%였다. 그러므로, 학령기 아동의 안전생활 실천행동을 고취시키기 위해 학업스트레스 수준을 낮추기 위한 효율적인 관리와 중재가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
