교복 재활용 시장을 통한 교복 구매는 환경오염을 줄일 수 있고, 성장기의 청소년이 경제적으로 자신의 치수에 맞는 교복을 구매하고 착용할 수 있어 의복에 관한 만족감을 높일 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 중 고등학생의 교복 재활용 활성화를 위하여 서울, 경기 지역 8개교의 중 고등학생 741명을 대상으로 교복 구매 행동, 교복 재활용 시장에 대한 인식, 교복 재활용 시장 운영 실태에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교복 만족도는 현재 자신의 치수에 맞는 교복을 착용할수록 높게 나타나므로 교복 만족도를 높이기 위해서 자신에게 맞는 치수의 교복을 착용하는 것이 중요하다. 둘째, 환경의식과 환경보전행동이 높을수록 교복 재활용 인식이 높게 나타난다. 교복 재활용 시장 인식을 높이기 위해서는 환경의식과 환경보전행동을 높일 수 있는 체계적인 환경 교육과 재활용 행사의 활성화가 중요하다. 셋째, 재활용 교복을 구매하지 않은 이유로는 재활용 시장의 접근성과 위생 문제로 나타났다. 따라서 교복 재활용 시장 활성화를 위해서는 합리적인 의복구매행동, 환경의식과 환경보전행동을 고취할 수 있는 환경교육과 재활용 행사가 효율적으로 이루어져야하고, 재활용 교복 시장의 접근성과 홍보, 세탁과 수선 서비스의 개선이 필요하다.

The purpose of this study were to compare school uniforms made in major and minor companies. Especially, purchasing motives, fitting satisfaction, and mending behaviors of school uniform were compared by middle and high school students. The most evident difference was exhibited in purchasing motive. Brand preference was the most important criterion in purchasing motive from a major company, while good pricing was the most important criterion in purchasing motive from a minor company. Apart from purchasing motive, purchasing behaviors such as fitting satisfaction, mending and mended part of school uniforms were not significantly different in relation to sex, grade, and type of company. These results indicate that major companies should consider lowering their prices and also adopt a high quality strategy for school uniform production. Minor companies need to identify areas of differentiation between themselves and larger companies, and produce niche market products that are for appealing to teenagers with a tendency to orient towards brands instead of quality. Furthermore, mature teenagers as consumers of school uniforms are receptive towards competition for reasonable price.

The objective of this study is to compare and analyze middle and high school boys' and girls' uniform wearing conditions. The survey was conducted online and data were obtained from 907 middle and high school boys and girls. The results of this study are as follows. First, most boys and girls did not know their body sizes other than their height and weight. Second, when purchasing the school uniforms, over 70% of the boys and girls chose to try on the uniforms before their purchase and over 60% of the boys and girls had trouble selecting their sizes just by reading the labels. Third, both boys and girls considered the fit as the most important factor. When purchasing jackets, both middle and high school boys considered the shoulder width as most important. Middle school girls considered the jacket and sleeve length as most important, whereas high school girls considered the shoulder width, waist, and bust as most important. When purchasing skirts or slacks, waist girth was considered as most important. Fourth, boys repurchased more school uniforms than girls. Boys have outgrown their uniforms usually in the length categories, whereas girls have outgrown in the girth categories. Fifth, more girls(72.7%) modified their uniforms than the boys(56.8%). Boys usually bought bigger uniforms, modified them to fit and when they grow out of their uniforms they planned to modify their uniforms again whereas girls modified their uniforms to follow the trend. Sixth, the online shopping mall survey has revealed that both boys and girls liked the idea of 3D model that reflect their own body shapes, but they had low preference to purchase school uniforms online. Online purchase has been more attractive to the boys than to the girls, while the way of fashioning uniforms has been more attractive to the girls than to the boys.

The main purpose of this study was to speculate how psychological state of adolescent students has changed their school uniform style. For the study, the distinctive characteristics during adolescence stage were theoretically examined. Through the examination, this study found four interests in fashions and school uniforms. For the purpose, this study conducted interviews with grade 2 students in a total of six coeducation secondary schools in Seoul, Gyeongki and Gwangju using a questionnaire. The survey period ranged from December 15 2008 to December 24 2008 and a total of 1196 were used for a final analysis. This study extracted factors as Principal Components Analysis and used Varimax for orthogonal rotation analysis. To measure confidence, it used Cronbach's a test to item internal consistency. For data analysis, it used SPSS WIN 12.0 and for hypothesis analysis, frequency analysis, cross analysis, independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA were conducted. For posterior analysis, it used Sheffe test. The results are as follows: First, the interests in fashion and school uniforms differed depending on their own tastes, but these interests were more influenced by environment around school. Secondly, the boy subjects were more aggressive towards repairs their uniforms than the girls, which suggested that boys had stronger desire to show themselves to others and more satisfaction from repairs their uniforms than the girls. Based on the results, this study concluded as follows: We should pay attention to preventing deformation in original design of school uniforms while expanding options to have variable designs or to change detailed part of design. So, there will be no additional uniform mending expense and financial loss to parents, and students will be more satisfied with their school uniforms.
