Abstract

The purposes of this study is to analyze the effects of repeated mountain trekking experience in adolescent sociality. Fifty-eight adolescents who took part in Baekdu-daegan trekking program were analyzed as research subjects. The subjects were divided for comparative analysis. Those who participated 40 times or more from 2014 to 2015 were designated as repetitive participants, and those who participated 5 times or fewer from March 2016 to April 2016 were designated as temporary participants. The general attributes of the subjects were examined by using descriptive analysis. A correlation analysis was carried out to compute the correlation coefficients between the five sub-components of sociality, and an independent sample t-test was executed for comparative analysis of sociality. The results of the analysis showed that sociality was higher in adolescents who repeatedly participated in trekking. Repetitive participants scored higher than temporary participants in all measures of the sub-components of sociality: autonomy, lawfulness, diligence, cooperativeness, and interpersonal relationships. We have verified positive influence of repetitive trekking experiences based on the research results thus far. Therefore, it supports the need of forest education as a fundamental approach to solving adolescent problems.

본 연구는 반복적 산행경험이 청소년의 사회성에 미치는 영향을 분석을 위한 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 백두대간 산행 프로그램에 참여한 청소년 58명을 대상으로 분석하였다. 대상자는 2014년부터 2015년까지 40회 이상 참여한 대상자를 반복적 참여자로 선정하고, 2016년 3월부터 4월까지 5회 미만 참여한 대상자를 일시적 참여자로 선정하여 비교분석하였다. 대상자의 일반특성은 기술통계분석을 실시하였으며, 이변량상관분석을 실시하여 사회성의 5개 하위요인 간의 상관계수를 산출하고, 독립표본t검정을 실시하여 사회성을 비교분석하였다. 분석 결과 반복적으로 산행에 참여한 청소년의 사회성이 높게 나타났다. 사회성 하위요인인 자율성, 준법성, 근면성, 협동성, 대인관계 모든 척도에 대해서 반복적 참여자가 일시적 참여자 보다 높게 측정되었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 토대로 반복적 산행경험이 청소년의 사회성에 긍정적 적인 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였으며, 청소년문제 해결에 있어 근본적인 해결접근방법으로 청소년 대상 산림교육이 필요하다.
