The concern over beauty is increasing as the importance of appearance is becoming more prominent. Accordingly, the importance of studying beauty is now apparent. The purpose of this study is to analyze existing beauty-related research in order to assess current trends in beauty-related studies. Materials were collected from the master's theses and academic journals from 1997 through 2016. In addition, 81 beauty-related papers were selected and classified into 3 categories according to their subjects and content. There were 19 hair attitude papers, 52 papers about make-up and skincare, and 10 papers on cosmetic surgery. Each type was divided into detailed themes according to the study theme and its number was grasped. Consequently it was classified into 9 themes about the attitude toward hair and the relevant variable study, 10 themes about the attitude toward hair style and relevant variable study, 24 themes about the make-up attitude and relevant variable study, 28 themes about the skin care attitude and relevant variable study, and 10 themes about the cosmetic surgery attitude and relevant variable study. The results revealed that academic concern about beauty sharply increased starting in 2005. Moreover, we determined that the methodologies used in hair and make-up studies were sound and detailed, while cosmetic surgery studies were more inconsistent and poorly analyzed. Thus cosmetic surgery should be further researched in a more standardized and thorough manner. This review of attitudes toward beauty will serve as a basis for follow-up studies that employ meta-analyses to draw more quantitative conclusions by aggregating many more study results.

본 연구는 중학생의 자아개념, 즉 일반자아, 학문자아, 중요타인자아, 정의자아개념에 따라 외모관리행동인 의복스타일추구, 화장 및 피부관리, 헤어관리, 성형 및 체형보정, 체중관리행동에 어떠한 차이가 나타나는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 특히 가정이나 학교 등의 생활 지도 현장에서 중학생의 외모관리행동은 세대 간의 의견차가 보이는 영역이므로, 이 연구를 통해 중학생의 외모관리행동을 이해할 수 있는 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였으며, 가정교과교육을 통한 자아개념의 증진 방안을 모색하는데 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 본 연구를 시행하였다. 본 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같았다. 본 연구의 조사대상자인 중학생들은 평균적으로 자아개념이 낮아 자신을 부정적으로 인식하고 있었으며 외모관리 행동 또한 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 자신을 긍정적으로 볼 수 있는 노력과 함께 외모관리행동을 통한 자아개념의 긍정적 증진이 필요하다고 하겠다. 긍정적 자아개념을 가지고 있는 중학생들은 피부를 청결하게 유지하는 것이나 헤어를 아름답게 손질하고 가꾸는 것 등으로 자신을 나타내려하며, 옷, 신발, 가방을 잘 갖추어 입고 깨끗하게 관리함으로써 스스로의 자존감이나 개성을 표현하려고 하였다. 또한 자신을 인식할 때 공부와 학업에 대해 긍정적 태도를 보이며, 중요시되는 타인과의 관계를 원만하게 지각하고, 자신의 신체나 정서에 대해 긍정적인 태도를 보이는 중학생들은 의복에 대해 높은 관심을 가지고 자신이 추구하는 이미지를 나타내려는 행동이 높은 반면, 성형이나 체형 등 자신의 신체를 인위적으로 변경시키려는 행동은 적게 하는 것으로 나타났다. 적절한 외모관리행동은 자신을 긍정적으로 보는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
