Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a group counseling program on high school students' depression and suicidal ideation. Methods: This research was conducted as a quasi-experimental pretest and posttest control and experimental group methodological comparison study. The subjects were 25 high school students (Exp=12, Cont=13) in U City. The depression and suicide prevention program in this study was based on the Ellis' ABC Model. The experimental group participated in the program through eight sessions, but the control group did not receive treatment. Data were collected from November 4 to November 28, 2008, and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN program by frequency, Mann-Whitney, means, standard deviation and Wilcoxon signed rank test. Results: There was statistically significant difference in depression (z=-2.983, p=.003) between the two groups. Suicidal ideation also decreased significantly(z=-2.847, p=.004) in the experimental group. Conclusions: After the eight sessions of the group counseling program for preventing depression and suicidal ideation, it was found that the program was effective to lower the score of depression and suicidal ideation. The results of this study suggest that a school-based prevention program for adolescents should be developed according to depression and suicidal ideation level.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년의 휴대전화 의존과 우울 및 공격성 간의 관계를 부모양육태도와 또래관계의 매개효과를 검증하여 청소년복지 실천적 함의를 모색하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 한국청소년정책연구원의 한국아동 청소년패널조사(Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey, KCYPS)의 초등학교 4학년 4차년도와 5차년도 자료를 이용하여 중학교 1학년 시기의 청소년 휴대전화 의존과 중학교 2학년 시기의 우울과 공격성간의 관계에서 부모양육태도와 또래관계의 매개효과를 구조방정식모형으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 청소년의 휴대전화 의존은 우울과 공격성에 직접적인 정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 부모양육태도와 또래관계의 매개효과를 분석한 결과, 부모양육태도와 또래관계 모두 휴대전화 의존이 우울에 미치는 영향과 공격성에 미치는 영향을 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 휴대전화 의존은 긍정적 부모양육태도를 감소시키며 이는 청소년의 우울과 공격성을 모두 증가시켰으며, 휴대전화 의존은 또래관계를 악화시키며 그로 인해 청소년의 우울과 공격성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 휴대전화 의존과 부모양육태도, 또래관계를 개선하여 청소년의 우울 및 공격성을 완화시키기 위한 실천적 개입 방안을 모색해 보았다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find the factors influencing adolescents' adult media engagement. The study is based on Agnew's General Strain Theory (GST) and a micro-systemic perspective. Methods: The study examined 479 middle school freshmen who participated in the fourth wave of the Korean Children & Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS) conducted by National Youth Policy Institute. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and reliability analysis using SPSS 22.0 Ver. Also, hypothesis testing was performed via covariance-based structure equation modeling (CB-SEM) using Amos 21.0 Ver. Results: Strain factors had positive effects on adolescent depression, and depression had a positive effect on adult media engagement. Also, cell-phone dependency had a positive mediation effect between depression and adult media engagement. Conclusion: The study's result identified the factors affecting adult media engagement. Therefore, we suggest intervention programs considering adolescents' strains, depression and cell-phone dependency to improve their health.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of self-esteem as a moderator of the factors influencing suicidality among middle-schoolers. Methods: Moderated multiple regression analysis was applied to assess the influence of happiness, depression, and hostility on suicidality and to determine the degree to which self-esteem served as a moderator of those relationships. Data were collected from 268 students at a middle school in Busan, Korea, using a self-administered structured questionnaire. Results: Happiness, depression, and hostility had significant direct effects on suicidality. Self-esteem showed no direct effect, but had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between hostility and suicidal behavior. Conclusions: These results suggest that various interventions, such as counseling programs, should be designed to alleviate hostility and depression and to enhance happiness and self-esteem among early adolescents.

Purpose: This study explored the influencing factors on suicide-related behaviors (ideation, plans, and attempts) focusing on mental health problems (anxiety, depression, and loneliness) among Korean adolescents. Methods: A secondary analysis was conducted with data from the 16th Korean Youth Health Behavior Survey collected from in 2020 by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Results: After the adjustment of demographic characteristics and health risk behaviors, the influences of mental health problems on suicidal ideation, plans, and attempts showed the anxiety odds ratio (OR) for severe anxiety vs. minimal (OR 4.65, 4.67, and 3.75), depression (OR 4.27, 3.69, and 4.49), loneliness (OR 2.18, 1.96, and 1.96). Health risk behaviors (violence experience, drug use, stress, smoking, and drinking alcohol) and demographic variables (gender, school record, and socioeconomic status) were also significantly associated with suicide-related behaviors. Conclusion: Anxiety, depression, and loneliness were strong predictors of suicide-related behaviors. Early detection of suicide risks through screening for comprehensive mental health problems was recommended. Suicide prevention that considers the risk factors, including mental health problems and other risk factors, needs to be developed and implemented to reduce suicide risks among adolescents.

본 연구는 중국의 중학생을 대상으로 형제구성 및 성별에 따른 심리적 복지의 차이를 살펴보고, 가족 및 학교환경이 청소년의 심리적 복지에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 중국 산동 성 요성 시내 남녀공학 중학교 2학년을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 최종 분석에 585부의 자료를 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중국 청소년의 형제구성에 따른 심리적 복지의 차이에 대한 분석 결과, 형제아가 외동아보다 우울 수준이 더 높았고 자아존중감이 낮아 형제아의 심리적 복지가 외동아보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 중국 청소년의 자아존중감에 영향을 미치는 요인을 보면, 여자 외동아와 남녀 형제아의 자아존중감에는 교사관계가 가장 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 남자 외동아 청소년의 경우에는 부부갈등이 가장 큰 영향을 미치고, 그 다음이 또래관계, 교사관계 순으로 나타나 형제구성 및 성별에 따라 자아존중감에 영향을 미치는 요인이 다르게 나타났다. 남녀 청소년 모두 학교환경 요인 중 교사관계 요인이 우울에 미치는 영향력이 다른 요인보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 청소년기에는 부모의 보호에서 벗어나 학교에서 교사와 상호작용하는 시간이 증가하므로 교사의 무관심과 거부는 청소년의 학업에 영향을 미치고, 우울, 비행과 같은 문제를 일으킬 수 있기 때문에 청소년의 건강한 발달을 위해서 교사는 청소년에게 지속적인 관심을 가져야 한다. 청소년의 건강한 심리적 복지는 긍정적인 부모양육행동, 낮은 부부갈등 수준, 긍정적인 또래 및 교사관계에 의해 영향을 받는다는 본 연구의 결과를 통하여 청소년의 심리적 복지 향상을 위해서는 가정과 학교의 관심과 노력을 증대시킬 필요가 있다는 것이 강조된다.

Background: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of chronic pain and its contributing factors among teenagers aged 12-21 years in Shiraz, Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on adolescents aged 12-21 years. Demographic variables of the adolescents and their parents as well as the pain characteristics were assessed. Descriptive statistics, multinomial logistic regression, and regression models were used to describe the characteristics of the pain and its predictive factors. Results: The prevalence of chronic pain was 23.7%. The results revealed no significant difference between the male and female participants regarding the pain characteristics, except for the home medications used for pain relief. The results of a chi-square test showed that the mother's pain, education, and occupation, and the father's education were associated significantly with chronic pain in adolescents (P < 0.05). Multinomial logistic regression also showed the mother's history of pain played a significant role in the incidence of adolescents' chronic pain. Conclusions: The prevalence of chronic pain was relatively high in these adolescents. The results also provided basic and essential information about the contributing factors in this area. However, consideration of factors such as anxiety, depression, school problems, sleep, and physical activity are suggested in future longitudinal studies.
