This study examined the effects of family climate, peer support and self-esteem on children's self-regulation. The participants in this study were 369 children (M=11.78 year) who completed questionnaires regarding family climate, peer support, self-esteem and self-regulation. Data were analyzed means by of a Structural equation model using AMOS 7.0. Our results indicated that (1) family climate, peer support and self-esteem were directly linked with children's self-regulation (2) the associations between family climate or peer support and children's self-regulation were mediated by children's self-esteem. These results imply that family climate and peer support are important antecedent variables in predicting children's self-regulation as well as their relative levels of self-esteem.

This study examined the effects of mother's support and peer acceptance on children's domain specific self-esteem and the moderating effects of best friend's support. The subjects were 272 $4^{th}$ and 349 $8^{th}$ grader in Chin-ju. Data were analyzed by the SAS/PC+ program, including Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, Pearson's correlation, multiple regression and two-way ANOVA. Findings were that peer acceptance had a higher influence on academic-general self, peer-related self, physical-appearance self, personality self and physical-competence self than did mother's support. Mother's support had a higher influence on home self than did peer acceptance. Best friend's support and mother's support interacted with children's physical-appearance self and physical-competence self. Best friend's support and peer acceptance interacted with student's peer-related self.

This study examined effects of children's emotionality and emotion regulation, and maternal parenting behaviors on children's peer competence. Subjects were 222 4- and 5-year-olds children and their mothers. Classroom teachers rated each child's peer competence and emotion regulation; mothers responded to questionnaires on their child's emotionality and on their own parenting behavior. Results of this study were : (1) children's positive and negative emotionality and emotion regulation influenced children's peer competence. (2) Mother's warm and encouraging behaviors were also associated with children's peer competence. (3) Children's emotion regulation rather than negative emotion and mother's warm and encouraging behaviors predicted peer competence. Child characteristics were stronger predictors than parenting behaviors.

The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of the reciprocal peer tutoring in high school students' affective characteristics with respect to mathematics. The study was conducted with 111 first graders in one high school located in Gyeonggi-do, and the study lasted for 1 year in regular mathematics classrooms. According to the results, reciprocal peer tutoring was very effective in improving students' interest and self-efficacy toward mathematics and reducing mathematics anxiety. Especially, in high and low performing student groups, there were statistically significant improvements in affective factors such as interest, self-efficacy toward mathematics, and mathematics anxiety after reciprocal peer tutoring. However, average performing student group showed statistically significant improvements in affective factors of interest and self-efficacy toward mathematics.

This study analyzed variables associated with peer competence of negelcted children. Participants were made up of 180 preschoolers and their mothers. Neglected children's peer competence was measured by the Peer Competence Scale(Park & Rhee, 2001) and data were subjected to descriptive analysis, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression analysis. Results showed that neglected children's peer competence was partly associated with the child's temperament and emotional regulation, parenting styles and involvement strategy, and teacher-child relationship. In particular, closeness in teacher-child relationship was the strongest predictor for both children's peer competence in leadership and sociability. Furthermore, a child's ability to regulate emotion was the strongest predictor of their peer competence in prosocial environments.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how parenting and peer relationships influence the development of adolescent self-concept by using Structural Equation Modeling(SEM). The subjects were 198 first graders (94 male and 104 female) from four high schools within the Seoul area. Descriptive and comparative statistical analysis was conducted with SPSS (Version10.0), while AMOS (Version 4.0) was used to assess structural equation modelling of parenting, peer relationship and the self-concept. Results showed that, in terms of correlation, more positive parenting behaviors induced more positive self-concept. In addition, better peer relationships demonstrated more positive self-concept. Regression analysis showed that peer relationships explained the variance in adolescents' self-concept more effectively than parenting behavior. This was confirmed by the SEM.

인터넷과 웹이 일상생활의 일부가 되면서 온라인상에는 방대한 양의 정보가 쌓이게 되었다. 이러한 흐름 속에서 정보의 양은 급속도로 늘어나는 현상을 보이며, ‘개인화’ 를 통해 수많은 데이터들 사이에서 원하는 정보를 자동으로 찾아내는 기술의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 이를 ‘추천시스템’ 이라 부르며, 내용기반 필터링과 협력적 필터링 등의 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 사용자에게 가장 중요한 영향을 미치는 또래의 선호도, 지역, 시대 등의 복합적인 환경을 반영하는데 아직까지 어려움을 지니고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 필터링들을 조합하고 좀더 편리하게 정보를 공유하고 학습할 수 있는 시맨틱 웹에서 연관 이웃 마이닝 기법을 통해 개인화된 추천 시스템을 설계한다. 생활에서 흔히 접할 수 있는 의상을 다양한 사용자에게 특화되어 코디해주는 시스템을 웹에서 제공한 결과 불필요한 검색시간이 줄어들고 사용자의 피드백을 통해 점차 만족도가 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

Influence of parenting, peer relationship, and teacher's support on the development of children's self-concept was assessed in Korean and Korean-Chinese elementary school students. Subjects were 280 Korean children in Korea and 210 Korean-Chinese children in Shenyang, China. The Self-Perception Profile for Adolescents(Harter, 1988), Parenting Practice(Cho et al., 2001), and 4 items from Social Support(Koo, 2000) were used to measure self-concept, parenting, and peer relationships, respectively. Data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation, factor analysis, and multiple regression. Results revealed differential influences between the two cultures : Korean children's self-concepts were significantly influenced by his/her peer relationships and teacher's support while Korean-Chinese children's self-concepts were influenced by teacher's support and parenting.
