Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of peer attachment and parental abuse on adolescents' dependence on mobile phones and the mediating effect of self-esteem. For this study, I used the panel data of the 7th year of the 1st grade of the elementary school for the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey provided by the Korea Youth Policy Institute. A total of 1,937 adolescents were selected to analyze causal relationship among variables, and SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 26.0 were used to verify research problem. As a result of the study, First, the better the relationship with peers, the higher the self-esteem and the less the dependence on their mobile phone. On the other hand, the more severe the abuse, the lower the self-esteem and the higher the dependence on mobile phones. Second, Self-esteem was found to have a significant effect on peer attachment and abuse on mobile phone dependence. Based on these results, I would like to provide them as basic data for helping positive development of adolescents.

본 연구는 또래애착과 부모 학대가 청소년의 휴대폰 의존도에 미치는 영향과 이들의 영향관계에서 자아존중감의 매개효과를 검증하기 위해 실시하였다. 이를 위해 한국청소년정책연구소에서 제공한 한국아동·청소년 패널 조사, 초등학교 1학년 7차 연도 패널 데이터를 활용하였다. 총 1,937명의 청소년을 대상으로 변인간의 관계를 분석하였으며, 연구문제 검증을 위해 SPSS 26.0과 AMOS 26.0을 활용하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 또래와의 관계가 좋을수록 자아존중감이 높아지면서 휴대폰 의존도는 낮아졌으나, 학대가 심할수록 자아존중감이 낮아지고 휴대폰 의존도는 높아졌다. 둘째, 또래애착과 학대가 휴대폰 의존도에 미치는 영향관계에서 자아존중감은 의미 있는 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이런 결과를 토대로 청소년의 긍정적인 성장·발달을 돕기 위한 기초자료로 제공하고 싶다.
