The subjects for this study consisted of 301 Korean-American students in grades 6 to 12. Findings of this study showed that most of the risk factors in all domains demonstrated a strong relationship to the use of alcohol, tobacco, and other illicit drugs. In the community domain the most common risk factor was "laws favorable toward drug use"(60.2%); this risk factor increased the odds of substance use by approximately 3 times. The protective factor, "opportunity for positive involvement" in school domain reported by 82% of the sample decreased the probability of substance use by 3 times. The percentage of students "resilient" on all protective factors in the family domain was much lower than that of protective factors in other domains. The strongest predictors of substance use were shown in the peer-individual domain.

본 연구의 목적은 초등학교 고학년을 대상으로 충동성과 자살행동(자살계획, 자살시도) 간의 관계에서 보호요인(개인요인, 가족요인, 또래요인, 학교요인)의 조절효과를 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 서울지역 초등학생 5~6학년 573명을 대상으로 충동성, 자살행동, 보호요인 척도에 대한 설문을 실시하였다. 먼저 자살행동의 실태를 파악하기 위하여 빈도 분석을 하였으며, 변인들의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 상관분석을 실시하였다. 또한 충동성과 자살행동과의 관계에서 보호요인의 조절효과를 알아보기 위해 위계적 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 이를 통한 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연구대상의 29명(5.1%)은 자살계획을 세워 본 적이 있으며, 17명(3.0%)은 자살시도를 해 본 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자살행동을 보고한 학생은 41명(7.1%)으로 집계되었다. 둘째, 초등학생의 충동성과 보호요인(개인요인, 가정요인, 또래요인, 학교요인)은 모두 유의미한 부적 상관을 보였으며, 충동성과 자살행동은 유의미한 정적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 초등학생의 충동성이 자살행동에 미치는 영향에 보호요인 모두 조절효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 충동적인 초등학생이라도 보호요인이 높을수록 낮은 자살행동을 보인다는 것이다. 이렇듯 보호요인은 초등학생의 충동성에 따른 자살행동에 대한 완충제로 작용하기 때문에 이를 강화하기 위한 다차원적인 노력이 필요함에 대하여 논의하였다.

This study examined four ecological systems, namely individual, family, school, and media environments. A series of moderator analyses were conducted to examine variations in effect size estimates across the study characteristics. The current study estimated that the effect size results were gleaned from 360 primary studies, including 90 journal articles and 270 thesis/dissertations, published between 2011 and 2022. The current meta-analysis results supported the ecological framework. That is, the impact of each ecological system on the development of positive and negative peer relationships varies depending on age groups and protective-risk factors. Specifically, for positive peer relationships, the largest effect size of the protective factor was found at the individual level for young and school- aged children, but at the school level for adolescents. Regarding the risk factors for positive peer relationships, the media was the ecological system with the strongest effect size for both young children and adolescents, while the individual-level demonstrating the strongest effect for school-aged children. Results from this meta-analysis allow us to identify some vital intervention areas in terms of healthy peer-relationship development, which should be of considerable interest to the educators and policymakers who are responsible for assessing and intervening with at-risk young children, school-aged children, and adolescents. From a practical standpoint, the current meta-analysis results are expected to contribute to developing effective prevention initiatives by targeting specific protective and risk factors for peer relationship development on the ecological system level.
