The purpose of this paper is to improve academic understanding of middle school students' academic problems by examining their impact on Academic Engagement and Academic Burnout, and to provide basic data to them in preparing various solutions. The Multiple Regression analysis was conducted on 388 middle school students to check the degree of influence on Academic Engagement and Academic Burnout, environmental Variables (parent relationship, friend relationship, teacher relationship) and individual Variables (life satisfaction, happiness, Self-Esteem, autonomy, Attention focused, Grit, depression). According to the analysis of 388 middle school students, the factors affecting Academic Engagement were: attention concentration, teacher relationship, persistence, self-respect, life satisfaction, parent relationship, depression and happiness. Second, the factors affecting Academic Burnout were depression, teacher relationships, friend relationships, parent relationships, persistence, self-respect, and attention. Since then, these findings have suggested directions and implications to prevent Academic Burnout, of middle school students in Korea and to them to Academic Engagement.

This study intended to analyze the early childhood education freshmen's academic interest. For this study relationship among academic self-efficacy, character strength and learning motivation. The study subjects were 144 early childhood education freshmen at K-college in Deagu. They answered the survey regarding academic self-efficacy scale, VIA-IS(Values in action inventory of strength) short form scale, school learning motivation scale. The collected data were analyzed by frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 18.0 program. The study finding are as follows. First, the average of academic self-efficacy, character strength and learning motivation of students were near at the intermediate-level. Second, academic self-efficacy, character strength and learning motivation were significantly positive correlated. Third, when examining the relative effect of early childhood education freshmen's academic self-efficacy and character strength on learning motivation, self regulatory efficacy among the sub-factors for academic self-efficacy and courage among the sub-factors for character strengths.

The purpose of this study is to examine the variables related to the students' e-learning participation that have an effect on learning achievement in e-learning environment of cyber universities. Based on the related research, the followings are derive. First, students' attendance and participation in discussion showed higher correlation with the learning achievement than other participation variables. However, the total studying time in online classes showed lower correlation with the learning achievement. Second, the variables that have an effect on the learning achievement were in the order of students' attendance, participation in discussion, access frequency to online classes, learning progress and number of data uploads. Third, by the learners' background, the difference among the variables that have an effect on learning achievement were found. Based on the results above, this study suggests considerations about participation variables to enhance the learning achievement in cyber universities.

This study investigated the relationship of self-esteem, academic stress, social support, and parenting attitudes with depression of Korean children and adolescents using a meta-analysis. A total of 86 studies, both published and unpublished manuscripts, were included. The results showed that depression of children and adolescents were positively associated with self-esteem, social support, and functional parenting attitudes, and negatively related to academic stress. The largest effect size was found in the relationship with self-esteem, followed by the relationships with academic stress, social support, and functional parenting attitudes, all in the range between moderate and large effect size. As the analysis indicated the heterogeneity of the results, subsequent analyses were performed to test the moderating effects of instrument and age. The significant moderators were the types of instruments used to measure self-esteem, academic stress, parenting attitudes, and depression. Age was also a significant moderator.

This study identified the latent groups according to smartphone addiction tendency and examined the factors affecting the latent group identification. The best-fitting LCA solution had three classes. The first group was 'non-academic stressed group, immersed in smartphone' It was characterized low scores on academic stress and average scores on smartphone addiction tendency. The second group was 'medium level academic stressed group, immersed in smartphone' which scored slightly above average in academic stress and smartphone addiction tendency. The third group was 'medium level academic stressed group, non-immersed in smartphone'. It showed higher scores than average in academic stress, but students with far lower scores in smartphone addiction tendency. Logistic analysis result showed that gender and grade were significant. This study is meaningful in analyzing academic related variable(academic stress) and mental health related variable(smartphone addiction tendency) to classify the groups according to patterns between the two variables and suggest appropriate intervention for each group in a convergence way.

This study investigated the ecological factors influencing second-year middle school students' academic motivation. A total of 371 students were surveyed for this study and data were analyzed for descriptive statistics using SPSS Win 21.0. The results of this study revealed that female students showed higher academic motivation than male students. However, school life satisfaction was strong for both male and female students. Finally, the introduction of parent education programs that target children to improve learners' self-identity and parent-child or teacher-student communication programs are necessary to enhance academic motivation.

This study is to verify relative influence of individual, parent, peer, teacher-related variables as protective factors and risk factors of academic hatred. Surveys were conducted with 1,015 (women, 57.3%) high school third grade students across eight schools where are located in Seoul, Incheon, and Geyonggi province. Correlation analysis and hierarchical multiple regression analysis were performed. The findings are summarized as follows. Teacher's academic pressure did not have significant correlation with student's basic psychological needs, teacher's autonomy support, teacher's support, and peer support whereas other variables showed significant correlation each others. The hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that student's individual competence and autonomy, parent's academic support, and teacher's emotional support work as protective factors and that parent's academic pressure functions as a risk factor. The effects of peer support disappeared when teacher-related factors were included. In addition, the effects of teacher's autonomy support disappeared, while the effects of teacher's support strengthened when learner's basic psychological needs were input. This study is meaningful in that it clarified academic hatred which had not been studied in other research and that it provided theoretical foundation for subsequent studies on academic hatred by examining relative influence of related variables. Lastly, it presented its limitation, implications on intervening strategies in school counseling, and suggestions for later studies.

The study explored differences in variables related to academic achievement by profiles of learning strategies. The Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (Pintrich & DeGroot, 1990), the Test of Beliefs on Intelligence (Cho et al., 2004), the School Satisfaction Scale (Son, 1993; Taft, 1979) and Scales for Rating the Behavioral Characteristics of Superior Students (Renzulli et al., 2002) were administrated to 221 subjects in grade 6 (107 girls, 114 boys). Data were analyzed by cluster analysis and ANOVA. Results identified six different clusters; significant differences of variables related to academic achievement were found among the six clusters. Frequent use of various cognitive strategies plays an important role in higher academic achievement.
