Abstract

This study aimed to identify factors that influence depression in juvenile offenders. A cross-sectional study design was used. The participants were 275 juvenile offenders from D city. The collected data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. Of the participants, 32.4% and 52.0% were in the clinical group for ADHD and depression, respectively. ADHD symptoms and self-esteem were significantly correlated with depression. The final model showed that depression among juvenile offenders was significantly influenced by perceived health status, ADHD symptoms, and self-esteem. These variables accounted for 37% of the variance of depression.

본 연구는 비행청소년의 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하기 위한 서술적 조사 연구이다. 연구대상은 D광역시 소재 의료 소년원에 입소한 비행 청소년 275명이었으며, 자료 수집기간은 2011월 5월에서 8월까지였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 20.0 통계프로그램을 이용하여 서술적 통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 대상자의 32.4%와 52.0%는 임상적 수준의 ADHD와 우울로 나타났다. 비행소년의 ADHD 증상 및 자아존중감은 우울과 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 비행청소년의 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인은 자아존중감, ADHD증상, 지각된 건강상태로 나타났으며 이들 전체 변수의 설명력은 37%였다. 따라서, 비행청소년들의 건상상태를 증진시키고 ADHD증상을 치료하고 자아존중감을 향상시킴으로써 우울을 예방하고 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.
