목적 : 고등학교에 재학중인 청소년을 대상으로 한 우울증 인식개선 프로그램이 우울증 관련 지식과 전문적 도움추구 태도에 긍정적인 변화를 가져오는지 평가하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 방법 : 서울시태 2개 고등학교 12개 학급을 선정하여 무작위로 중재군과 대조군에 각 6개 학급씩을 할당하였다. 중재군에는 학급단위로 1회 50분간 3회의 교육을 주 1회 실시하였다. 교육프로그램의 효과평가를 위해 중재군은 사전, 프로그램 수행 직후, 중재 2개월 후 추적조사를 실시하였고, 대조군은 사전 및 추적조사를 실시하였다. 우울증에 대한 지식 및 전문적 도움추구 태도의 변화를 분석하였다. 결과 : 교육프로그램 수행 직후 중재군에서 우울증에 대한 지식총점이 유의하게 높아졌고, 우울증을 경험하는 친구에 대한 반응 및 전문적 도움추구 태도가 긍정적으로 변화하였다(p<.05). 추적조사에서는 우울증에 대한 지식총점의 경우에서만 두 군 간에 차이가 유지되었다(p<.05). 결론 : 우리나라 고등학생을 대상으로 한 학교기반의 우울증 인식개선 프로그램은 대상자의 지식과 태도에 긍정적인 변화를 가져왔다. 보다 지속적인 효과를 기대하기 위해서는 반복적인 교육이 요구된다.

While the importance of needs and effectiveness of counseling for the gifted and talented has been actively studied, factors that practitioners and researchers have to consider in designing counseling programs less have been studied. The main aim of this study is to establish a foundation of counseling for the gifted and talented research by investigating factors which impede gifted youths' intentions toward counseling and by suggesting structural model which explains the relationships between the factors. The author(s) investigated the effects of parental emphasis on academics, personal emphasis on academics, attitudes toward seeking professional help, surrounding attitudes for consultation on gifted youths' intentions. The result shows that the effects of parental emphasis to academics on gifted youths' intentions toward counseling are mediated by attitudes toward seeking professional help and surrounding attitudes for consultation. Implications, limitations, and future research directions are discussed.

Objective: This study examined the use of mental health helping systems among college students in Korea. A behavioral model of health service utilization was applied to examine factors influencing different types of helping systems. Methods: A total of 454 college students from four universities participated in the survey. A self-administered questionnaire measuring help-seeking behaviors including formal health and mental health services, informal helping system, peer group, and family support was used. Results: Respondents frequently turn to family members and peer group when in need, and age, sex, mental Health status, and attitude and knowledge on mental illness were significant factors affecting help-seeking behaviors of Korean students. While older students and those with more severe symptoms were more likely to seek help from formal resources, students with more severe symptoms were less likely to seek help from informal resources. Male students and those with negative attitude toward mental illness were less likely to ask peer groups for help. Conclusions: Study results indicate that informal resources and peer groups can be significant sources of social support for individuals in their late adolescence and young adulthood, however, their role as gateways to professional help is limited. Student counseling centers should take on a more active role in reaching out; implications for developing peer leaders as counselors and self-help groups are discussed.
