The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of attachments to parents, teachers, and friends on delinquencies among elementary school students. Participants were 2844 elementary school students from the 2004-2006 panel 2 data of the Korea Youth Panel Survey(KYPS). For analyses of research questions, frequencies, descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, Pearson correlations and multiple regression analysis were used with SPSS 12.0. Results of the study indicated that : (1) For boys, attachments to parents reduced delinquencies more than for girls. However, for girls, attachments to teachers reduced delinquencies more than for boys. (2) Attachments to friends influenced delinquencies negatively in the 4th grade, but influenced delinquencies positively in the 6th grade. (3) When boys and girls kept in touch with delinquent peers, attachments to parents largely influenced delinquencies.

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effect of self-esteem on the effect of family relationship satisfaction on depression among the elderly and to draw implications for the social welfare field. For this study, raw data from the 16th Korean Welfare Panel Survey were used for analysis, and a sample of 4,310 elderly people aged 65 years or older was selected as respondents. The collected data were subjected to frequency analysis and correlation analysis using IBM SPSS 24.0, and the Process Macro of SPSS proposed by Hayes (2018) was used to examine the mediating effect. The results of the significance test of family relationship satisfaction on depression showed that family relationship satisfaction was significant, i.e., the higher the level of family relationship satisfaction, the lower the depression. In addition, the results of the significance test of the effects of family relationship satisfaction and self-esteem on depression showed that family relationship satisfaction had a significant effect, and the mediating variable, self-esteem, had a significant effect on depression. Therefore, this study aims to identify the characteristics of family relationship satisfaction among the elderly and provide policy suggestions and social work practice directions to reduce the level of depression among the elderly.

Objectives : Using several waves of the Panel Study of Worker's Compensation Insurance(PSWCI), this study analyzed the effect of female workers on the health and lifestyles of korean workers in the sample year of 2014 (The first survey was completed in August-October 2013;, the second survey was completed in August-October 2014.) Methods : The research subjects were 24,672 women among workers who responded to the 2014 PSWCI panel report. Statistical analyses were performed with SAS version 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). Results : According to the results of the analysis, women showed differences in female temporary workers, working conditions, classification of occupation, working period, and health conditions based on work-time conditions. The results show that female workers with disabilities have a direct positive effect on life satisfaction as we anticipated in the hypothesis. Conclusions : Female workers should focus on factors identified in this study when developing employment interventions to improve a health promoting lifestyle for their work environment.

This longitudinal study investigated the causal relationships between academic achievement and self-esteem using data from a 4-year investigation(2003-2006). Academic achievements and self-esteem were assessed for a sample of adolescents (male 187, female 201) in KYPS (Korea Youth Panel Survey). Cross-lagged autoregressive analyses indicated that for academic achievement and self-esteem, these two variables were reciprocally interrelated in middle school. However, thereafter, middle school 3rd grade students' self-esteem influenced high school 1st grade students' academic achievement, while high school 1st grade students' academic achievement influenced high school 2nd grade students' self-esteem.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep duration and school adjustment of elementary-, middle-, high-school youth and to verify the mediating effects of parenting behavior. Methods: We analyzed the data from Wave 4 of the first-grade panel of elementary school and Waves 1 and 4 of the first-grade panel of middle school in Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS), including 1,703 fourth graders, 2,119 seventh graders, and 2,108 tenth graders. Multiple regression was used for the data analyses. Results: The results of this study were as follows. First, longer sleep duration was associated with a higher level of school adjustment in fourth grade. In contrast, longer sleep duration was associated with a lower level of school adjustment in seventh and tenth grades. Second, longer sleep duration was related to a higher level of discipline through reasoning in fourth grade. However, longer sleep duration was related to a lower level of parental monitoring in seventh and tenth grades. Third, the relationship between sleep duration and school adjustment was mediated by parenting behavior. Discipline through reasoning had a mediating effect in fourth grade, but the mediating effect of parental monitoring was found in seventh and tenth grades. Conclusion: These results suggest a differentiated approach on sleep duration in accordance with developmental stage and the need for parent education.

This study was conducted to verify the effectiveness of improving indoor environmental awareness, relieving stress, and improving learning efficiency in school indoor green space, and suggest desirable ways to develop indoor green space in the future. As part of the study, a survey was conducted among 225 individuals across six schools in a metropolitan area with garden and panel-type indoor gardens inside the school building. The survey comprised the current status and use of indoor green spaces, the perception of indoor green spaces, improvement measures in indoor green spaces, and basic properties. Semantic Differential (SD) was used to investigate the impression of school indoor spaces. Resultantly, the more frequent the use of green spaces in the school, the more they feel the positive effects of indoor green spaces, such as improving the school's indoor environment, reducing stress, and improving learning efficiency. In addition, it appears that the more frequent contact with the natural environment, the more they feel the positive effects provided by indoor green space at school. Therefore, it is suggested that educational conditions must be improved by revitalizing various green welfare, including indoor green areas, at the school level.
