This study examined the longitudinal effects of appearance satisfaction and Korean language skills on the self-esteem and school adjustment of multicultural adolescents. The study used data from 1,151 multicultural adolescents from the $3^{rd}$, $4^{th}$, and $5^{th}$ waves of the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study (MAPS). Data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha, correlation, and structural equation modeling. The results are as follows. First, appearance satisfaction and Korean language skills at grade 6 significantly predicted higher self-esteem at grade 7. Second, there was a significant influence of high levels of self-esteem at grade 7 on positive school adjustment of grade 8. Last, the self-esteem at grade 7 had a significant mediating effect in the relationship between appearance satisfaction and Korean language skills at grade 6 and school adjustment at grade 8. The results of this study highlighted the importance of self-esteem as a mediating factor in the connection between appearance satisfaction and Korean language skills as well as the level of school adjustment. This provides supporting evidence to many educators and parents for the implementation of effective support practices for multicultural adolescents to enhance their school adjustment. Other related implications of these findings and suggestions for future research are also discussed.

Image-oriented information is becoming increasingly important on social networking services (SNS); the background of this trend is the popularity of selfies. Currently, camera applications using augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are gaining traction. An AR camera app is a smartphone application that converts selfies into various interesting forms using filters. In this study, we investigated the change of keywords according to the time flow of selfies in Goolgle News articles through semantic network analysis. Additionally, we examined the effects of using an AR camera app on appearance satisfaction and self-esteem when taking a selfie. Semantic network analysis revealed that in 2013, postings of specific people were the most prominent selfie-related keywords. In 2019, keywords appeared regarding the launch of a new smartphone with a rear-facing camera for selfies; in 2020, keywords related to communication through selfies appeared. As a result of examining the effect of the degree of use of the AR camera app on appearance satisfaction, it was found that the higher the degree of use, the higher the user's interest in appearance. As a result of examining the effect of the degree of use of the AR camera app on self-esteem, it was found that the higher the degree of use, the higher the user's negative self-esteem.

본 연구는 청소년의 심리적 불안감과, 외모지향태도, 자아존중감과 이들의 문제행동 간 구조적 관계에 대해 분석하고, 이 구조적 관계가 성별, 학교 급별로 어떻게 나타나는지 실증적으로 밝히고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국 아동 청소년 데이터 아카이브에서 제공하는 NYPI횡단조사 중 2013년 '청소년 문제행동 저연령화 실태 및 정책과제 연구'를 위해 수집된 자료를 SPSS 22.0프로그램과 AMOS 22 통계프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 심리적 불안감이 높을수록 자아존중감은 약해지며 문제행동의 수준은 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 외모지향태도가 강할수록 자아존중감은 강해지며 문제행동의 수준은 높아지는 것으로 나타났으며, 자아존중감이 강할수록 문제행동의 수준은 완화되는 것으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 청소년의 심리적 불안감과 외모지향태도가 자아존중감을 통해 문제행동에 미치는 영향에 관한 간접효과를 검정한 결과, 심리적 불안감과 문제행동과의 관계에서 자아존중감은 정적 매개효과를, 외모지향적 태도와 문제 행동과의 관계에서 자아존중감은 부적 매개효과를 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 청소년의 외모지향태도와 문제행동 간의 인과관계의 영향력 크기는 성별 및 학교급별에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 청소년의 문제행동 예방 및 완화를 위한 이론적, 실천적 함의와 제언을 하였다.

When women are exposed to images of other attractive women such as media models, it is known that many go through a social comparison process and a contrast effect occurs which results in unfavorable perception and attitudes toward the self. This paper suggests women's perception of control over their appearance as one of the factors that may moderate the contrast effect of a social comparison with attractive media models. An experiment with 211 women was conducted to examine the differential effect of viewing attractive models versus non-human images on the responses of women with high/low perceived control over appearance. A two(Stimuli Type: attractive-model image vs. non-human image) by two(Perceived Control over Appearance: High vs. Low) MANCOVA model was tested with physical appearance anxiety, self-esteem, and body satisfaction as dependent variables and appearance orientation, body mass index, age, years of schooling, ethnicity, and marital status as covariates. A significant Perceived Control main effect on Physical Appearance Anxiety and Self-Esteem and a significant Stimuli Type by Perceived Control interaction effect on Physical Appearance Anxiety and Self-Esteem were found. Those who perceived high control over their appearance were more likely to have higher self-esteem and lower appearance anxiety. However, among those who saw attractive model's images, women perceived low appearance control showed less anxiety and higher body satisfaction than those perceived high appearance control.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors affecting body image among undergraduate students. Method: The research design for this study was a descriptive survey design using a convenience sampling. Data collection was done using self-report questionnaires with 319 undergraduate students located in 3 cities, Seoul, Gangneung and Seosan. Pearson correlation coefficients and hierarchical multiple regression with the SPSS Win 12.0 Program were used to analyze the data. Results: In the hierarchical multiple regression analysis, gender, height, weight and college major were controlled. Body surveillance and body shame significantly predicted 72.3% of appearance orientation. Sociocultural attitudes toward appearance and self-esteem significantly predicted 33.5% of appearance evaluation. Self-esteem and body surveillance significantly predicted 15.9% of health orientation. Self-esteem significantly predicted 23.3% of health evaluation. Conclusion: Findings from this study provide a comprehensive understanding of body image and related factors in undergraduate students in Korea. However, further study with a larger random sample and more a detailed research design is necessary.

남녀 대학생을 대상으로 청소년기 부모의 외모관련 양육유형과 자신의 자기존중감이 외모만족도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 아버지의 외모관련 양육유형은 무관심형(45.5%), 보수적 규제형(32.0%), 외모추구형(22.5%)으로 분류되었으며, 어머니의 경우에는 의견존중형(39.5%), 보수적 규제형(32.6%), 외모추구형(27.9%)으로 분류되었다. 또한 부모의 양육유형과 대학생 자녀의 자기존중감에 따른 외모만족도와의 관계를 살펴본 결과, 남학생에게 있어서는 부모의 외모관련 양육태도보다는 자녀의 자기존중감이 그들의 외모만족도에 영향을 미쳤다. 이에 비하여 여학생들은 부모의 양육유형에 따른 외모만족도 면에서 차이가 있었는데, 자녀의 의견을 존중하는 어머니를 가진 여학생의 경우 외만족도와 신체만족도가 높았으며, 아버지가 외모추구형인 여학생의 경우 오히려 자녀의 신체만족도가 낮았다. 또한 자녀들은 의견존중형을 가장 이상적인 양육유형으로 인식하고 있었고 전반적으로 자기존중감이 높은 학생의 경우 외모만족도도 높았다. 이것은 부모들이 자녀의 외모 관련 양육태도로서 자녀의 의견을 존중하고 그들이 자신의 개성을 찾도록 지도하는 것이 자녀의 외모만족과 자기존중감 고양에 도움이 됨을 보여준다.

A questionnaire was distributed to 825 female/male undergraduates in Daegu city and Gyeongbuk province.
