Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of peer attachment on life satisfaction of adolescents and to verify the mediating effects of career identity and smart-phone dependency in the process. For this purpose, the data from the sixth year Korean Child and Youth Panel Survey(2015) on 1,823 middle school students were analyzed by hierarchical regression analysis and path analysis among variables. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, peer attachment of adolescents had a significantly positive effect on their life satisfaction. Second, adolescents' career identity had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between peer attachment and life satisfaction. Third, the effect of peer attachment on life satisfaction of adolescents was partly mediated by their smart-phone dependency. On the basis of above findings, the practical programs to enhance career-identity and life satisfaction and reduce smart-phone dependency were presented.

본 연구는 또래애착이 청소년의 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고 그 과정에서 진로정체성과 스마트폰 의존도의 매개효과를 검증하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 한국아동 청소년패널 조사의 초4 패널 6차년도(2015) 자료를 이용하였고, 조사당시 본 연구에 적합한 중3 재학생 1,823명을 대상으로 변수간의 위계적 회귀분석과 경로분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과를 살펴보면. 첫째, 청소년의 또래애착은 삶의 만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 청소년의 진로정체성은 또래애착이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향에 있어 부분매개효과를 보여주는 것으로 확인되었다. 셋째, 스마트폰 의존도는 또래애착이 삶의 만족도 사이에서 부분매개 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과에 기초하여 청소년의 진로정체성과 삶의 만족도를 향상시키고 스마트폰 의존도를 완화할 수 있는 실천적 방안을 모색하였다.
