Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of socio-demographic, household, social support, health-related factors on adolescent internet use time. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine factors affecting adolescent internet using time, and this study used the 2014 10th Korean Youth Health Risk Behavior On-line Survey data by Centers for Disease and Prevention. Results show that as for socio-demographic factors, being male, lower economic status, being middle school student, and having poor academic grade were; as for household factors, youth-led, one-parent, grandparent(s), multicultural, and North Korean defectors family were; as for social support factors, the absence of family support, the absence of friend support and the absence teacher support were; and as for health-related factors, less exercise, higher level of stress, and lower level of subjective happiness were associated with increased internet using time. Based on these results, convergent implications about effective intervention strategies that adolescents can use internet appropriately were discussed in the section of conclusion.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년의 인터넷 사용시간에 영향을 미치는 요인을 인구사회학적 관련 요인, 가구유형 관련 요인, 사회적지지 관련 요인, 건강 관련 요인을 통해 탐색하는 것이다. 청소년의 인터넷 사용시간에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴보기 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하였으며 자료는 질병관리본부가 실시한 2014년 제10차 청소년건강행태 온라인 조사를 활용하였다. 연구분석결과, 인구사회학적 관련 요인에서는 남학생인 경우에, 가계의 수준이 낮은 경우에, 중학생인 경우에, 학업성적이 낮을수록, 가구유형 관련 요인에서는 소년소녀 가구, 한부모 가구, 조손가구, 다문화 가족, 북한이탈주민 가족의 경우에, 사회적지지 관련 요인에서는 가족지지, 친구지지, 선생님지지가 없는 경우에, 건강 관련 요인에서는 운동시간이 적을수록, 스트레스 수준이 높을수록, 주관적 행복감이 낮을수록 청소년의 인터넷 사용시간은 증가되는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 토대로 결론에서 청소년의 적절한 인터넷 사용을 위한 효과적인 개입전략을 모색할 때 고려해야 할 융복합적 함의를 논의하였다.
