인터넷과 이동전화가 보편화된 오늘날의 청소년들이 소비자로서 획득자, 배분자, 구매자, 사용자, 처분자의 역할을 어떻게 해 나가고 있는지를 알아보기 위하여 경남지역 창원시 중학생 열 명을 대상으로 질적연구 방법을 통하여 살펴보았다. 연구 결과, 중학생은 획득자로서 주로 부모에게 용돈을 획득하는데 정기적이고 타협을 통한 획득이 되지 못하므로 바람직한 획득자 역할을 위하여 중학생과 함께 부모를 대상으로 한 용돈교육이 이루어져야 하겠다. 배분자로서는 대부분이 간식비, 오락비, 교통비, 쇼핑에 많이 배분하고 저축에의 배분은 적었고 부모의 통제를 많이 받는 일부는 용돈사용이 억제되었다. 획득한 용돈의 균형 있고 바람직한 배분을 위해 저축교육이 강조되어야하며 이를 위한 학교와 가정의 연계 교육이 제공되어야겠다. 구매자로서 중학생이 구매하는 물품 및 서비스 비용에 대해 꼼꼼히 검토할 수 있는 능력을 함양시키고, 합리적인 구매자 역할을 위하여 중립적 원천 정보를 이용할 수 있도록 지도하며, 구매와 관련한 문제를 해결할 수 있는 능력을 배양시켜야겠다. 사용자 역할은 매우 미약하므로 중학생들이 많이 사용하는 물품에 대해 환경과 연계한 사용자 교육이 강화되어야겠다. 처분자 역할은 인터넷을 기반으로 하는 N세대의 특성이 그대로 반영되어 인터넷 상에서 교환 및 처분이 이루어지는데 바람직한 처분자 역할을 할 수 있도록 지도가 필요하다. 결론적으로 오늘날의 중학생의 소비자역할에 대한 교육은 학교, 가정, 사회가 서로 연계하여 이루어질 때 더욱 효과적이 될 수 있고, 바람직한 소비자역할을 정립할 수 있겠다.

The objectives of this study are to identify the environmental consumer behavior, to examine the degree of environmental consumer behavior of the junior high school students, and to investigate the educational system of a school which influence the consumer behavior. The data used in this study are 368 male and female students in 9th grade in Anyang City, Kyunggi-do province. Statistics used for data analysis are means, standard deviation, t-test, and Multiple Regression Analysis. The results of the research are summarized as follows : First of all, as a tendency of the environmental consumer behavior of junior high students, the primary factor to the environmental problems was media, and among those, TV and radio was the medium to environmental problems. This implies the fact that the time juveniles interact with mass media is significantly growing, which means that transmitting environmental problems by programs targeted to adolescences through mass media would be effective. Next, the disposal process showed the highest environmental consumer behavior, followed by the consuming and purchasing process. Education on the purchasing process will be necessary to encourage environmental consumer behavior. The route of obtaining environmental knowledge was basically from school and the level of the average environmental knowledge fumed out to be low. This shows the need to produce and distribute media education materials because educating the conclusion of actual experiments will be more effective than that of theoretical studies. The conformity showed general indifference on environmental consumer behavior and the environmental resources were normally collected seperated. Conformity is a cultural bond teenagers think important, therefore education available for students about the same age should be developed. Next, the value intention of the surveyed showed that the ecological intention was highest, followed by economic and convenience intentions. This means the morale of the junior high students to environmental consumer behavior is set sound. Females tended to act more environmentally, while males showed more intention to economic causes. Also, the students of the boys-only or girls-only schools showed higher environmentally sound behavior in disposal processes. Finally, the environmental consumer behavior was influenced most by environmental consumer behavior of the conformity group, followed by ecological morale, frequency of encountering environmental problems, gender, environmental knowledge, whether the school was boys-only or girls-only or not, economical morale, respectively. The largest factor affecting the consumer activity of the purchase, consumption, and disposal process was environmental consumer behavior of the conformity group, along with the ecological morale, and the frequency of encountering environmental problems. This implies that conformity group is a large factor to the juveniles and a plan to entice the environmental consumer behavior of conformity groups are necessary.

The purpose of this study is to understand the reduction of energy consumption and demand level for education relating to the reduction of energy consumption by middle school students. First, the perception of the reduction of energy consumption had a significant relationship with sex and grade. Second, the demand level for education relating to the reduction of energy consumption showed a significant relationship with only sex. Third, regression analysis on the influence of perception of the reduction of energy consumption showed a correlation between theperception of a reduction of energy consumption and the demand level for education relating to a reduction of energy consumption. The research suggests that students want an education that reduces energy consumption at school implemented during experience-centered and activity-centered discretionary activities, rather than duringtheory-centered curricular activities. It also suggests that overcoming limitations of space, that is, implementation of such education at various places besides school, and the application of teaching and teaming methods which use the internet and image media are more effective for education for the reduction of energy consumption.
