Purpose: The leading cause of death among teenagers in Korea is suicide. Also, it is known that mental health of Korean adolescents identified based on the levels of perceived stress or depression is very poor. The purpose of this study was to examine the current status of student mental health programs in Korea and the associated problems and to explore ways to make the programs more effective. Methods: The subjects of the study were a total of 115 school nurses and school counselors in elementary, middle and high schools. The study examined the current status and the associated problems of school mental health programs as well as the needs for teacher training programs related to student mental health. Results: Few mental health programs other than counseling for at-risk students were being carried out. The problems associated with student mental health management were, in terms of management, 'accountability in case of incidents such as student suicide' and 'parents uncooperative in their kid's mental health management (visit to hospital, etc.)' and, in terms of manpower, 'unclear R&R between school nurses and school counselors' and, more fundamentally, 'the lack of human resources.' The needs for teacher training programs related to student mental health were very high and the content required most was 'ways to manage stress of students and teachers themselves,' followed by 'interpersonal conflicts management & conservational skills,' and 'ways to manage student mental illness.' Conclusion: In conclusion, to increase the effectiveness of student mental health programs, we should move on from the current system which focuses only on early discovery and intervention to a more comprehensive system that includes preventive approaches, while having clearer R&R and more workforce dedicated to student mental health programs and attracting more parental cooperation and support.

Objectives: This study investigated the association between perceived ethnic discrimination and depressive symptoms among biethnic adolescents in South Korea. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of 4141 biethnic adolescents using data from the 2012 National Survey of Multicultural Families. Perceived ethnic discrimination was measured using the question "Have you ever been discriminated against or ignored because either of your parents is not a Korean?" with an assessment of depressive symptoms over the past 12 months. Logistic regression was applied to examine potential associations between perceived ethnic discrimination and depressive symptoms. Results: Among 4141 biethnic adolescents, 558 (13.5%) reported having experienced ethnic discrimination. The most common discriminatory perpetrators were friends (n=241, 5.8%), followed by strangers (n=67, 1.6%). Depressive symptoms were related to experience of ethnic discrimination (odds ratio [OR], 3.80; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.89 to 4.98) after adjusting for potential confounders. In an analysis focusing on the perpetrators of discrimination, depressive symptoms were found to be associated with perceived ethnic discrimination from friends (OR, 3.95; 95% CI, 2.75 to 5.68), teachers (OR, 4.53; 95% CI, 2.16 to 9.51), family members and relatives (OR, 3.89; 95% CI, 1.59 to 9.48), neighbors (OR, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.14 to 5.38), and strangers (OR, 2.49; 95% CI, 1.30 to 4.79). Furthermore, the OR for depressive symptoms among those exposed to 1, 2, or 3 or more discriminatory perpetrators were 3.61 (95% CI, 2.49 to 5.24), 3.61 (95% CI, 1.68 to 7.74), and 6.69 (95% CI, 2.94 to 15.22), respectively. Conclusions: According to our findings, friends were the most common perpetrators of discrimination and the experience of ethnic discrimination was associated with depressive symptoms among biethnic adolescents in South Korea.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to verify the relationship among depression, school adjustment, parent-child bonding, parental control and smartphone addiction, and to identify factors which influence smartphone addiction in adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used, with a convenience sample of 183 middle school students from 3 middle schools. Data collection was conducted through self-report questionnaires from April to May, 2017. Data were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$ test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation coefficient analysis, and binary logistic regression with SPSS Ver. 21.0. Results: The mean score for smartphone addiction was 29.40. Of the adolescents, 21.3% were in the smartphone addiction risk group. Logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=7.09, 95% Cl: 2.57~19.52), school life (OR=0.86, 95% Cl: 0.79~0.93), smartphone usage time (OR=1.32, 95% Cl: 1.04~1.66), and parental control (OR=4.70, 95% Cl: 1.04~21.29) were effect factors for the smartphone addiction risk group. Conclusion: Findings indicate that school satisfaction was an important factor in adolescents' smartphone addiction. Control oriented parent management of adolescents' smartphone use did not reduce the risk of smartphone addiction and may have worsen the addiction. Future research is needed to improve understanding of how teachers and parents will manage their adolescents' use of smartphones.

The aim of this study is having the status, knowledge and attitude of the high school attendees toward smoking be analyzed, helping to make effective health education methods to diminish adolescent smoking habits. The field self-questionnaire investigation has been performed from Oct 10th through 23rd in 1999. The whole 427 cases were distributed to 1st and 2nd grade students of randomly selected men's high school in Seoul. And 414 cases (97%) were finally selected for analysis after exclusion of cases with insufficient information. The main contents of questionnaire are composed of several sectors; the general characteristics of the interviewees, the relationship with parents, the life style and the peer relationship in school. And smoking-related characteristics are taken into consideration, too. The major findings of the study are as follows: The smoking/non-smoking related factors are, in socio-demographical terms, the grade, average spending per month of the interviewees. And the degree of satisfactory relationship with parents is significant on smoking behavior. The higher, the degree of satisfaction on school life and relationship with designated teacher, the more chances of non-smoking habit. Poor academic grades and peer group dependability of interviewees cause higher smoking habit rate in other way. The self-interviewees grade and cohabitation with parents are also significant on both the attitude toward smoking habit and the knowledge on smoking statistically. The academic history and vocations of the parents and the academic grades of interviewees are also effective variables, but don't make any gap between groups knowledge on smoking. Smoking groups used to have positive attitude toward smoking habit. Both the attitude and knowledge on smoking by the consideration of Quit-smoking have statistically significance. The groups which have negative attitude and high knowledge on smoking quit-smoking into consideration. And the primary cause of quit-smoking is on health by smoking. Depression, stress, adult smoking in the house, peer group pressure, cigarettes advertisements on papers and magazines and smoking scenes on TV have positive correlation on forming smoking habit (p〈0.001) But the knowledge on diseases triggered by smoking has negative correlation on forming smoking habit. (p〈0.05, p〈0.001). Social factors as monthly spending, relationship and communication with parents, the degree of satisfaction in school life, academic grades and student-teacher relationship have crucial negative correlation on smoking habit. That is to say, the higher, the monthly spending is, the worse, the relationship with parents and teachers is, the lower, the academic grades of the student is, the percentage of the interviewees who have smoking habit seems to get higher.

2000년대를 전후로 급증한 청소년들의 학업중단을 실태와 기존의 연구들을 통해 종합적으로 조망하였다. 용어, 실태, 원인과 과정 및 학업중단 이후 과정으로 나누어 우리나라 청소년의 학업중단을 이해하고, 이를 다시 12가지 특성으로 정리하였다. 그리고 이러한 특성들을 생태학적 모형으로 재구조화하였다. 1990년대 중반에 시작된 사회적 안정구조의 흔들림과 1998년의 IMF 사태는 청소년들의 1차 환경인 가정과 학교에 영향을 미쳤다. 가정은 이혼 등의 갈등이 표면화되면서 청소년에 대한 심리적 지지와 경제적 지원을 약화시켰고, 학교에서는 교권과 교칙이 약화되면서 교사와의 갈등, 학업의 목적과 흥미 상실로 나타났다. 청소년들은 우울, 무력감, 공격성과 같은 정서적 반응, 미래의 불투명성, 학업적 의미 상실과 같은 인지적 반응 및 부적절한 성행동, 폭력과 같은 표면화된 비행행동반응을 보였다. 이러한 심리적 상태는 가출과 학업중단이라는 표면화된 행동으로 드러나게 되었고, 이후 이들의 학업 유지 의도에도 불구하고 준비되어 있지 않은 사회에 의해 비행화가 가속되었다. 이들에 대한 국가적 대처에 대한 제안과 제한점들이 논의에 첨가되었다.

본 논문은 주의산만이나 과잉운동을 주소로 대학병원 정신과에 내원한 5세에서 13세 사이의 환아들을 대상으로 인구학적 특성과 주진단 및 공존질병에 대해서 조사하였고, 그 중에서 주의력결핍 과잉운동장애(ADHD)로 진단 받은 환아들의 인구학적 및 임상적 특성을 조사하였으며, 공존질병이 있는 집단과 ADHD만 있는 집단을 비교 분석하였다. 또한 ADHD군과 외향적장애군 및 내향적장애군 등 세집단간의 임상특성과 심리검사상의 차이를 알아보았다. 주진단은 ADHD가 가장 많았고. 불안장애, 정신지체, 우울증, 반항장애, 발달성언어장애 등의 순이었다. 두 가지 이상의 진단이 내려진 경우가 48.9% 이었고, 부진단으로는 유뇨증, 품행장애, 발달성언어장애 등이 있었다. 주진단을 ADHD로 받은 환아들에서 공존질병이 있는 경우가 55.3%에 달했고. 공존질병은 특수발달장애, 품행장애, 반항장애, 불안장애 등의 순이었다. 순수 ADHD군에 비해서 공존질병 수반군에서는 동작성 지능검사와 연속과제수행검사에서 저조한 수행을 보였다. 외향적장애군은 ADHD군에 비해 지능검사의 상식 소검사 및 같은 그림찾기 검사와 연속과제수행검사에서 수행의 저하를 보였다. 내향적장애군은 ADHD군에 비해 교사 평정척도 점수가 낮았고, 아동행동조사표의 소통불능요인이 높았으며 연속과제수행검사에서는 카드 오류수가 낮았다. 본 연구의 결과를 볼 때 주의산만이나 과잉운동이 주증상으로 나타날 경우 각종 평가 및 신경심리검사도구를 광범위하게 사용하여 ADHD 외에도 외향적 및 내향적장애군 등 다양한 질환을 감별하여야 하며, ADHD 진단을 내리는 경우에도 수반된 공존질병의 유무를 확인하여 이를 치료계획에 반영하여야 할 것으로 생각된다.
