Abstract

This study verified the effect of parents' water-saving mind in adolescence on children's water-saving consciousness. The study results showed that parents' water-saving mind in adolescence positively affected one's water-saving consciousness(${\beta}=.627$, p<.001) and one's water-saving mind positively affected children's water-saving consciousness and intention to emphasize water saving for their children(p<.001). Also, education, occupation, type of residence, monthly water rate significantly affected the between-group differences of one's water-saving mind and women's water-saving mind were higher than men's. This study provided implications for confirming the effect of parents' water-saving education for child in home by verifying the effect of parents' water-saving mind in adolescence on children's water-saving consciousness.

본 연구는 청소년기 부모의 절수 마인드가 자녀의 절수 인식에 미치는 영향을 검증하였다. 연구 결과 본인의 절수마인드에 영향을 미치는 요인은 청소년 시기 부모의 절수 마인드(${\beta}=.627$, p<.001)로 나타났으며, 본인의 절수마인드는 자녀의 절수 마인드와 향후 자녀에 대한 절수 강조 의지에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다(p<.001). 또한 대졸이 전문대졸보다, 전문가 및 관련 종사자가 사무 종사자보다, 아파트나 주택 거주자가 빌라 거주자보다, 월평균 수도요금이 4만 원대 이상이 그보다 요금이 낮은 경우보다 부모의 절수마인드 중요성을 높게 인식했으며 여성이 남성보다 절수마인드가 높은 경향을 보였다. 본 연구는 청소년기 부모의 절수 마인드가 자녀에게 미치는 영향력을 검증했으며 이를 통해 가정 내에서 청소년 시기 부모의 물 절약 의식 및 실천행동의 자녀교육 효과성을 입증한 데 그 의의가 있다.
