Abstract

This study aimed to examine the mediating effects of social withdrawal between adolescents' mobile phone dependence and the sense of community, and to secure the evidence data for adolescents' mobile phone dependence intervention. Among the 7th year data for the 4th grade students in the Korean Children & Youth Panel Survey(KCYPS), 1,979 students were included. The results showed that mobile phone dependence had a significant effect on the decrease in the sense of community and influenced the sense of community through social withdrawal. These results imply that positive intervention to reduce social withdrawal is needed and it can improve the sense of community in youth. Also, when we deal with weakening in the sense of community, we should consider convergent intervention in psychological and social aspects which deal with dependency, social withdrawal, and the sense of community.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년의 휴대전화 의존과 공동체 의식 간의 관계에서 사회적 위축의 매개효과를 검증함으로써, 청소년의 휴대전화 의존 개입에 대한 근거자료를 확보하는 것이다. 자료수집은 한국 아동·청소년 패널조사 초등 4학년 패널 자료 중 2016년 7차 연도 자료 1,979명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구결과, 휴대전화 의존은 공동체 의식의 감소에 유의한 영향을 주었으며, 사회적 위축을 경유하여 공동체 의식에 영향을 미쳤다. 따라서 청소년들의 휴대전화 의존 관련 감소된 공동체 의식을 향상하기 위해, 사회적 위축을 감소하는 적극적 개입이 필요함을 시사한다. 또한, 휴대전화 의존 관련 공동체 의식 약화를 다룰 때, 의존과 사회적 위축, 공동체 의식 변인을 함께 고려하는 심리적 사회적 측면의 융복합적 개입이 필요함을 의미한다.
