최근 급증하고 있는 다문화사회에서 다문화 가정의 가족 구성원의 안정적인 상태로의 정착과 특히 그 자녀들이 '건강하고 행복한 한국인'으로 동반 성장할 수 있는 방안 마련이 현재 주요 과제 중 하나라고 할 수 있다. 무엇보다도 한국의 저출산율은 사회를 구성하는 문제와 인구 노동력 감소로 이어져 국력까지 약화시킨다. 이를 해소할 방안 중 하나로 외국인들을 부족한 한국사회의 인구로 보충하는 것이다. 다문화 가정을 통한 자녀 출산과 그 자녀들로 하여금 성인인구를 늘리는가 하면 다문화가정의 자녀들이 사회의 구성원으로서 올바른 성장과 건강하고 행복한 한국인이 될 수 있도록 돕는 일이 우리 한국의 심각한 사회적 상황을 안정적으로 잘 지탱할 수 있는 길이다. 무엇보다도 감정의 기복이 심한 청소년기를 겪고 있는 다문화 가정의 청소년들의 학교생활적응과 관련된 연구의 필요성은 매우 중요한 역역이라고 볼 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 학교생활적응에 중요한 작용을 하고 도움을 줄 수 있는 연구들의 필요성에 관한 방안들을 모색하고 향후 연구에 적용함으로써 학교생활에 대한 적응력을 높일 수 있는 기초적인 자료가 제공될 수 있도록 하는데 목적이 있다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the predictors of impulsive behavior, self esteem, and depression on school adjustment of adolescents. The original data were collected using questionnaire from the sample of 415 middle school students selected by convenient sampling. The data were collected from October 1 to November 30, 2010. The data was conducted by using a correlations coefficient and the hierarchical regression. The major findings of this study were as follows. Firstly, the school adjustment correlates with the impulsiveness(r= -.53), the self esteem(r= .51), and the depression(r= -.56). Secondly, the school adjustment was significantly associated with academic performance, impulsiveness, self esteem, and depression, which explained 51.8% of variance in school adjustment. These results may contribute to a better understanding of impulsiveness, self esteem, depression, and school adjustment of adolescents. Therefore, programs for prompting adolescents's school adjustment should be a planned based on results of the study.

This study aims to verify mediating effect of ego-resilience and mental health between psychological home environment and adaptation to school of early adolescents in schools with Educational Welfare Priority Project(EWPP). For this purpose, multiple regression analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were conducted on the relationship between psychological home environment and adaptation to school, ego-resilience and metal health of 310 male and female students in fifth and sixth grade in four elementary schools on EWPP located in Busan area. As the result of analysis, three major variables affecting adaptation to school life turned out to be in the order of ego-resilience, home environment and mental health and both ego-resilience and mental health were confirmed to play partial mediating role in the relationship between home environment and adaptation to school life. Since home environment as a psychological variable of adolescents from poor families have an effect on adaptation to school in connection with ego-resilience and mental health as personal variables, this study can be used as base materials for the development of programs to strengthen psychological home environment, ego-resilience, and mental health. In addition, in terms of practical implications, educational welfare policies for alienated class can be practical policy alternative to mitigate social polarization.

In this paper, we intend to examine the mediating effects of self-esteem and school life adaptation in the path between cultural adaptation stress and life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents, and propose ways to improve the life satisfaction level of multicultural adolescents. As analysis data for this purpose, the 4th, 5th, and 6th panel data of multicultural youth of the Korea Youth Policy Research Institute were used, and multivariate potential growth model analysis was performed using the statistical programs SPSS 23.0 and Amos 23.0 version. In addition, the individual mediating effects of self-esteem and school life adaptation were verified using phantom variables. As a result of the analysis, it was possible to confirm the longitudinal mediating effects of self-esteem and school life adaptation, which suggests that multi-dimensional efforts are needed to improve self-esteem and school life adaptation level to improve the life satisfaction level of multicultural adolescents. Therefore, based on the results of this study, practical measures to improve the life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents were presented in detail.

This study explored the longitudinal relationships between school life adjustment and the parents' neglect/abuse as perceived by children according to gender. The participants were 5th and 6th grade children and the instruments were parents' neglect/abuse scale and school life adjustment scale. Using Korea Youth Panel data of Child Youth Policy Institute of Korea, 5th and 6th grade data were analyzed. The results were as follows: Neglect/abuse as perceived by children were different according to their gender and grade. Children who had perceived more parents' neglect/abuse were more likely to have difficulty in school life adjustment. The results of this study suggest that the appropriate interventions for the parents' neglect and abuse is needed by showing the stability of the child's perception of the parents' neglect and abuse during the 5th-6th grade.
