Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify the factors affecting the mental health of high school students. The participants comprised 216 students in general high school. Data collection was conducted from May 1, 2020 to May 20, 2020. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and a multiple regression analysis. The average score for self-esteem was 3.75±0.64(1-5), perceived stress was 2.86±0.58(1-5), emotional regulation ability was 3.43±0.65(1-5) and mental health was 1.91±0.71(1-5). Mental health had a statistically significant relationship with self-esteem(r=-.64, p<.001), emotional regulation ability(r=-.61, p<.001) and perceived stress(r=.54, p<.001). The factors affecting mental health were self-esteem(β=.46, p<.001), emotional regulation ability(β=-.37, p<.001), negative perceived stress(β=.17, p=.001) ; the explanatory power of the model was 60.0%. Therefore, it will be necessary to develop a program that can help high school students improve their self-esteem and control their negative emotions in order to promote their mental health.

본 연구의 목적은 고등학생의 정신건강에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위함이다. 연구대상은 B시 소재 인문계 고등학교 3학년에 재학 중인 학생 216명을 대상으로 하였으며, 자료수집은 2020년 5월 1일부터 5월 20일까지 시행하였다. 자료분석은 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's corelation coefficient, Scheffe's 사후검증과 다중회귀분석을 이용하였다. 연구결과, 자아존중감은 5점 만점에 평균 3.75±0.64점, 지각된 스트레스는 5점 만점에 평균 2.86±0.58점, 정서조절능력은 5점 만점에 평균 3.43±0.65점, 정신건강은 5점 만점에 평균 1.91±0.71점이었다. 정신건강은 자아존중감(r=-.64, p<.001), 정서조절능력(r=-.61, p<.001)과는 음의 상관관계를 보였으며, 지각된 스트레스(r=.54, p<.001)와는 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 정신건강의 영향요인은 자아존중감(β=-.46, p<.001), 정서조절능력(β=-.37, p<.001), 지각된 부정 스트레스(β=.17, p=.001)이었으며 설명력은 총 60.0%로 나타났다. 그러므로 고등학생의 정신건강 증진을 위해 자아존중감을 향상시키고 부정적 정서를 잘 조절할 수 있도록 도움을 줄 수 있는 프로그램 개발이 필요할 것이다.
