The benefits of teaching learning materials to others have been shown on learning achievement. Anxiety is one of the obstacles in learning and it has been shown that math anxiety is strongly associated with math achievement. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate whether teaching others benefits math anxiety when university students learn statistics. 59 students who enrolled in statistics class participated and 30 students performed group assignment of teaching peer in a group and 29 students did not. Other than group assignments, the instructor, lectures, assignment of solving the problems, and exams were all the same. The results showed that the math anxiety of students who did group assignments of teaching was decreased at the end the semester. Increased math anxiety yielded negative attitudes toward learning statistics, resulting in poor learning performance. Furthermore, the relationship between math anxiety and the attitudes toward leaning statistics was moderated by teaching others. The results suggest that teaching others has an effect on reducing math anxiety and thus, possibly yield persistent learning gains.

이 연구는 가족의 불안정성이 노인자살에 미치는 영향을 확인하고 시간의 흐름에 따른 변화추이를 살펴보기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 입지조건 가족불안정성 사회경제적 수준을 설명변수로 인과구조의 분석모형을 만들었다. 자료는 1995년, 2000년, 2005년의 사망원인통계와 시 군 구 지역단위통계를 활용하였다. 이혼을 통해 가족불안정성을 측정하였으며, 이혼이 미치는 영향을 자세히 살피기 위해 노인과 20-50대, 그리고 남자노인과 여자노인자살률을 분석에 같이 사용하였다. 이 논문은 GIS를 이용하여 세시점의 자살률을 제시하였고, 입지조건 및 이혼에 따른 노인자살률의 차이를 검증하기 위해 분산분석과 회귀분석을 실시하였다 일부 지역에서만 높은 수치를 보이던 노인자살률이 시간의 흐름에 따라 높아져, 최근에는 남서해안을 제외한 대분 지역에서 높게 나타나고 있다 또한 노인의 자살이 높은 지역이 대도시에서 농촌지역으로 변화해 농촌지역에서의 노인자살이 심각한 것을 알 수 있다. 경제위기를 겪으면서 급증한 이혼은 가족불안정성으로 이어져 자살률을 높이는 효과를 보여준다. 노인자살률과 20-50대 자살률에 미치는 이혼의 효과는 동일하게 나타나고 있으며. 노인의 경우 더 강한 정적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 이혼이 자살에 미치는 효과는 성별에 따른 차이를 보여주는데, 여자노인보다 남자노인자살률을 높이는 방향으로 작용하고 있다 이러한 결과들을 보면 가족불안정성이 특히 남자노인자살에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있다.
