This study analyzes the effect of poverty on child development outcomes including academic achievement, self-esteem, depression/anxiety, attention problems, aggression, and delinquency. The poverty experiences among elementary school children are longitudinally observed during 3 years between the 4th grade and the 6th grade. When development outcomes are compared among persistently poor children, transitory poor children, and non-poor children, academic achievement is found to be significantly different. The analyses of the relationships between the poverty status and developmental trajectories show that academic achievement among non-poor children has improved over time, while the level of poor children's achievement has decreased. The result also shows that problematic behaviors such as attention problems, aggression, delinquency has improved over time among all the children. Yet, the gap between poor and non-poor children has not decreased. The multivariate analyses indicate that the effect of poverty remains statistically significant only for academic achievement after children's individual and familial characteristics are controlled. Past experiences of poverty in addition to the current poverty affect academic achievement and persistent poverty has a stronger effect than transitory poverty on academic achievement, although the findings are not consistent across all the estimated models.

우리나라 영재교육에 대한 연구들은 대부분 영재아의 개념정의와 판별도구 개발, 영재발굴, 선발 및 그들의 교육에 편중되어 있는 반면 영재아들의 적응, 자기지각, 또래관계등 사회정서발달에 관련된 연구는 거의 이루어지지 못하고 있다 이에 본 연구는 과학영재아동의 개인 및 일상생활에서의 적응수준 및 성별에 따른 적응, 자기지각 및 사회적지지의 차이를 파악하며, 그들의 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 자기지각 및 사회적 지지 수준을 살펴보고 영재아의 사회적 성취나 적응에 도움을 줄 수 있는 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 본 연구의 연구문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 과학영재아동과 일반아동의 적응(개인적응, 사회적응, 부적응), 자기지각 및 사회적 지지는 차이가 있는가\ulcorner, 둘째, 과학영재아동의 적응, 자기지각 및 사회적 지지는 성별에 따라 차이가 있는가\ulcorner, 셋째, 과학영재아동의 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 자기지각, 사회적 지지 수준은 어떠한가\ulcorner 본 연구의 대상은 전라북도에 위치한 중학교 1학년 100명의 아동이며, 이들은 교사추천 및 전북대학교 과학영재연구소의 과학과 수학시험을 통해 선발된 과학 영재아동이다. 설문결과 불성실한 응답자를 제외한 총 39명(남아 59명, 여아 30명)이 최종 연구대상이 되었다. 본 연구의 측정도구로 아동의 적응능력검사도구는 한국교육평가센터(KETC)에서 1998년 개발하여 표준화과정을 마친 종합적응능력검사를 사용하였으며, 개인적응영역(자아개념 12문항, 성취동기 10문항, 자기기획 15문항), 사회적응영역(사교성 15문항, 애착 9문항, 사회적 긍정성 10문항), 부적응영역(스트레스 20문항, 욕구좌절 10문항, 편견 12문항) 총 113문항으로 구성되어 있다. 아동의 자기지각검사도구는 Harter(1985)의 Self-Perception Profile이며, 학업역량, 사회적역량, 운동역량, 신체외모역량, 행동품행역량, 자기가치감 각각 6문항씩 총36문항으로 구성되어 있다. 아동의 사회적 지지검사도구는 한미현(1996)이 제작한 척도를 사용하였으며 부모지지, 교사지지, 학교친구지지, 친한 친구지지 각각 6문항씩 총 24문항으로 구성되어 있다.

This study was to know the influence of familial environment and moral development on conduct disorder. Subjects were composed of 47 male and female patients with conduct disorder(patients group), 113 general male and female students(normal group), and 173 juvenile prisoners(JP group). The Korean Form of the Family Environment Scale(FES) was used to assess the family environment of the subjects and the Korean Defining Issues Test(DIT) was used to assess the moral development. Conduct disorder was diagnosed with the DSM-III-R criteria for conduct disorder. The influence of familial environment and moral development on conduct disorder was analyzed with ANOVA and the differences among groups were verified with Scheffe test. There was no difference in the socioeconomic status and the physical abuse by the parents among the three groups. But the rates of divorce or separation of the parents were significantly highest in the JP group and higher in the patients group than in the normal group. Especially the subjects of the JP group experienced the divorce or separation of their parents during the preschool or the elementary school periods. In regard to the family environment, there was no difference among the three groups in the Subscales of Expressiveness, Independence, Intellectual-cultural orientation, Moral-religious emphasis, Organization, and Control. ‘Cohesion Subscale’ was significantly higher in the normal group than in the JP group. ‘Conflict Subscale’ was significantly higher in the JP and patients groups than in the normal group. ‘Achievement orientation Subscale’ was significantly lower in the JP group than in the patients and normal groups. ‘Activerecreational orientation’ was significantly lower in the normal group than in the JP and patients groups. In gegard to the moral developmental stage, the lower moral developmental step was higher in the JP and patients groups than in the normal group. The higher steps were significantly higher in the normal group than in the JP group. There was no significant correlation between the degree of ‘Moral-religious emphasis Subscale’ and the moral development. The clinical implication and limitation of present study were listed and discussed.

This study aims to explore the effects of the parenting education program for high-school maladjusted students. To this purpose, a parenting education program for adolescents developed by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family(MOGEF) was applied to ten high-school maladjusted students in an alternative(Dae-an) class in Jeju. Findings from class observations and interviews with participants are as follows. First, students with school maladjustment recognized importance and necessity of positive self-concepts and had an opportunity for self-growth through parenting education program. Second, students with school maladjustment obtained understanding about their family of origin and confidence for forming their future families. Third, advance learning about meanings and roles of being a parent provided students with opportunities to know importance of responsible sexual behavior. Fourth, practices of basic care with a replica of a new-born baby enhanced participation and concentration level of students with school maladjustment which became extremely effective in obtaining necessary knowledge for the basic care. Fifth, information provision for parent roles according to children's different developmental levels let students recognize that parent's roles change as their children grow and opened a way to grasp the need of parent education. Sixth, education and repetitive practices on reflective listening helped students enhance communication skills which entailed expanding their human relations. Seventh, passing-down of emotion and understanding on child abuse allowed students recognize risks of child abuse as well as the importance and need of skills for controlling emotion. This study sheds lights on the feasibility and effectiveness of a parenting education program for maladjusted or vulnerable students as an effective program for school drop-out prevention.
