The purpose of this study is to understand the life experience of youth who discharged from out-of-home-care and lived as the unemployed NEET(Not in Education, Employment or Training) youth not established in life. For this study, we collected in-depth interviews with five youth in career moratorium or early discharge from out-of-home care. The results of the study were as follows: we divided into six themes such as "I cannot lean on family of origin", "unstable life", "strayed by wandering and prejudice", "I need someone to rely on", "belated regrets", and "constantly dreaming of resurgence"; and the six themes were analyzed separately in the sub-categories. As a result, we found out that the youth in career moratorium lived a life of regret and recovery in the unstable life journey. Based upon the results, we suggested social welfare practice and policy implications in order to systematically support the NEET youth after discharge from out-of-home-care.

2004년 7월 29일부터 담배자동판매기를 이용하여 담배를 구매하기 위해서는 주민등록증 또는 운전면허증을 소지하거나, 신용카드와 같은 금융카드를 소지해야 한다. 현재 $\ulconer$청소년보호법$\lrcorner$에 따라 19세 미만의 청소년에게는 담배를 판매할 수 없도록 하고 있으나, 실제로 청소년들은 무인자동판매기를 통해 담배를 쉽게 구매할 수 있었다. 이에 대한 대안으로 담배자동판매기에는 보건복지부장관이 정하는 성인인증장치를 의무적으로 부착토록 지난해 $\ulcorner$국민건강증진법$\lrcorner$이 개정되었고(`03.7.29), 보건복지부는 주민등록증 또는 운전면허증과 같은 신분증을 이용하거나, 신용카드와 같은 금융거래카드를 이용하는 방법이 법에서 정하는 성인인증장치라는 내용의$\ylcorner$국민건강증진법시행규칙$\lrcorner$을 개정, 2004년 7월 29일 공포하였다. 이러한 제도개선으로 청소년에 대해 담배를 판매하는 불법행위는 줄어들 것으로 예상되며 , 청소년 흡연을 억제하는데도 긍정적인 효과가 기대된다. 담배자동판매기에 성인인증장치를 부착하지 않고 담배를 판매하면 200만원 이하의 과태료를 처분이 내려진다. 우리나라 담배자동판매기는 금연운동의 강화와 규제 등으로 계속 감소하는 추세에 있으며 , 2003년말 현재 약 3천여대가 운영되고 있는 것으로 파악되고 있으며, 이번 조치로 그 수는 더욱 줄어들 것이 예상된다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of adolescents' mobile phone dependency on depression and aggression and to identify mediating effects of parenting attitudes and peer relationships. This study used data from the 4th and 5th waves of 2010 KCYPS (Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey). Structural Equation Model(SEM) was conducted to examine the mediating effects of parenting attitudes and peer relationships. The results showed that adolescents' mobile phone dependency had positive effects on depression and aggression. In addition, the relationship between adolescents' mobile phone dependency and depression was partially mediated by parenting attitudes and peer relationships. The relationship between adolescents' mobile phone dependency and aggression was also partially mediated by parenting attitudes and peer relationships. Based on these findings, further suggestions are provided to reduce adolescents' depression and aggression by decreasing mobile phone dependency and improving parenting attitudes and peer relationships.

청소년 활동은 극기훈련과 모험훈련의 정도로만 여기고 있었다면 본 연구를 통하여 새로운 페러다임의 변화를 모색 할 수 있으며 지역복지 시설의 유휴시설 공간 활용을 통해 맞춤형 청소년 프로그램을 새롭게 개발하는데 도움이 됨과 동시에 청소년활동의 영역을 활성화하는 체계를 마련하는데 목적이 있다.

The purpose of this study is to 1) investigate the prevalence rate of the abuse of parents by their teenage children and the effect of child abuse on parent abuse, 2) examine moderating effect of positive friend relationships on violence toward parents, and 3) provide the implication to the adolescent-to-parent abuse. In order to accomplish these purposes, a total of 1,601 who are middle and high school students in Seoul and Gyeonggi province were utilized. Data were analyzed by frequency analysis, and Poisson regression model analysis with SPSS 21.0. The main results of this study are as follows. Frist, prevalence of parent abuse were 12.8%. Second, 40.6% of adolescents have childhood experience of abuse, and this experience has significant relationships with perpetrating behavior toward parents. Lastly, adolescents' positive relationships with friends play an important role in moderating parent abuse. These findings suggest that there is a strong need to formulate the multilateral approaching system to the parent who are victims of abuse and perpetrating adolescents in order to understand the characteristics adolescent-to-parent violence problems and intervene effectively in diverse systems. Political and practical implications on parent abuse preventive programs and coping strategies are discussed.

This study focuses on adolescent prosocial behavior as one of the necessary elements for youth to grow as a healthy member of the society. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of peer group on adolescent prosocial behavior by comparing the peer influence model and the individual characteristics model. For the study, we conducted hierarchical multiple regression analyses using the data from the Korean Youth General Survey 2008, administered by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Results show that friends' prosocial behavior had a positive impact, but friends' antisocial behavior had a negative impact on adolescent prosocial behavior. When individual characteristics including self-esteem and empathy were analyzed simultaneously, empathy, self-esteem, friends' prosocial behavior, and friends' antisocial behavior were found to be statistically significant. The strength of association between individual characteristics and adolescent prosocial behavior was greater than that of friends' behaviors. Also, significant moderating effects of individual characteristics on the relationships between adolescent prosocial behavior and friends' behaviors were found. For example, the positive effect of friends' prosocial behavior on adolescent prosocial behavior increased as adolescent's level of self-esteem increased. On the other hand, the negative effect of friends' antisocial behavior on adolescent prosocial behavior decreased as adolescent's level of empathy increased. Based on the findings, both the peer influence model and the individual characteristics model were considered valid in explaining prosocial behavior of Korean adolescents. Finally, implications of this study for positive youth development were discussed.

This study is a literature review analyzing the characteristics of biophilic design in health and welfare facilities for the elderly, children, and adolescents. Studies on biophilic design in such facilities were selected from two Korean databases. Eight studies were analyzed based on biophilic design elements, and the characteristics of biophilic design were compared between facilities for the elderly and those for children/adolescents. Elderly facilities exhibited more patterns of 'direct experience of nature' than their counterparts, while children/adolescents' facilities displayed more patterns of 'space and place experience' compared to facilities for the elderly. The pattern of 'indirect experience of nature' was similar for both the elderly and children/adolescents. We suggest utilizing more 'direct experience of nature' patterns, such as natural light and water, to reduce stress in vulnerable children and younger individuals. Additionally, incorporating more 'experience of space and place' patterns may help reduce stress and enhance the cognition of older individuals.

This study used laten class growth analysis to identify discrete developmental patterns of delinquent behaviors in adolescence. This present article also examined associations among these trajectories to determine how the development of delinquent behaviors relates to protective and risk factors, which include parental monitoring, attachment with parent, association with deviant peers, self-control, and negative stigma from others. Four-wave panel data from a Korea Youth Panel Study were used for the latent class growth model analysis. The sample consisted of 3,446 adolescents who were assessed at 4 measurement waves with approximately 1-year interval. Four trajectories of delinquent behaviors emerged: delinquency persistence, delinquency increaser, delinquency decreaser, normative group(almost no delinquent behaviors). Association with deviant peers had the most proximal strong influence on the probability of being in the delinquency increaser and delinquency persistence group compared, noed to the normative group. Parental monitoring, self-efficacy and negative stigma also differentiated the four delinquent behavior trajectories from one another after controllig for socio-demographic variables. The study suggested that there is a significant heterogeneity in the timing and change rate of delinquency progression. Adolescent delinquency prevention and intervention programs will need to consider this heterogeneity and enhance attention to protective and risk factors depending on the subpopulation.
