Abstract

The objective of the study was to examine the factors affecting the life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents and to verify the mediating effects of school adjustment and career attitude between depression and life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents.. For the purpose, 1079 subjects were selected from the 7th (2017) data of the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study (MAPS), and the data collected were verified through analysis methods such as structural equation and Bootstrapping analysis. The results founded are as follows. First, the depression of multicultural adolescents was shown to decrease their life satisfaction. Second, school adjustment played a partial mediating role in the causal relationship between depression and life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents. Third, the effect of depression of multicultural adolescents on the life satisfaction was partly mediated by their career attitude. On the basis of the findings, practical programs and policy alternatives to enhance life satisfaction of multicultural adolescents were discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 다문화청소년의 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향 요인을 살펴보고 우울감과 삶의 만족도와의 관계에서 학교생활적응과 진로태도의 매개효과를 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 다문화청소년패널(MAPS) 7차(2017)년도 데이터에서 1,079명을 연구대상자로 선정하여, 구조방정식과 Bootstapping 등의 분석방법을 통해서 검증했다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다문화청소년의 우울감은 삶의 만족도를 저하시키는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 다문화청소년의 우울감이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향에서 학교생활적응의 부분매개효과를 확인하였다. 셋째, 진로태도는 다문화청소년의 우울감과 삶의 만족도 간에 부분 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 다문화청소년의 삶의 만족도를 향상시킬 수 있는 정책 수립과 실천적 방안을 논의하였다.
