본 연구는 숲교육 프로그램이 보호관찰 청소년의 심리정서에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 2015년 산림청-법무부 공동주관으로 추진된 숲교육 프로그램에 참가한 보호관찰 청소년 77명을 대상으로 자기보고식 척도를 활용하여 숲교육 프로그램 참가 전 후의 기분상태, 자아존중감, 자기통제력의 변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과 숲교육 프로그램이 보호관찰 청소년 기분에 긍정적 변화, 자아존중감 증가, 장기적 만족추구에 효과적임을 확인하였다. 본 연구결과는 수강명령 프로그램으로써 숲교육 프로그램을 활용하는 것이 보호관찰 청소년에게 갖는 긍정적 효과를 검증하였다는 측면에서 연구의 의의가 있다.
