The purpose of this study is to investigate retest reliabilities in longitudinal study, the same test is administered repeatedly over time. Linear mixed models were used to establish various situations of tests occurred in longitudinal study. Combination of two types of true value and three types of systematic error was considered. In order to apply the models to real longitudinal data, height data from the Berkeley growth study and vocabulary score data from the University of Chicago experimental school were used. Using the mixed model, there is an advantage that the reliability can be determined by selecting the covariance structure of the true value and the error separately. However, in order to properly analyze the reliability, researchers need to consider variations that can occur in measurement, such as characteristics of subject, the test, and the the treatment applied in the study. And the proper model should be selected and the quality of the measurement should be evaluated for each trial.

정교화가능성모형과 기술수용모형에 의해 정보기술 수용의 설득과정을 시도한 연구들이 이론적으로 미친 영향은 매우 크다. 그러나 이들 연구의 대부분은 횡단면적 접근에 기반한 정적 모형을 사용했기 때문에 시간 흐름에 따른 변수 간의 관계 변화를 적절히 설명하지 못하고 있다. 가령, 교육 프로그램을 통한 정보기술 수용은 일정기간의 시간을 요하는데 설득경로가 유용성의 지각에 미치는 영향력은 달라질 수 있다. 따라서 정보기술 수용과정을 충분히 규명하기 위해서는 기존의 연구모형은 종단적으로 확장되어 시간 흐름에 따른 시스템 사용을 평가해야 한다. 한편 정보기술수용 연구에서 내재적 동기의 중요성이 강조되고 있음에도 불구하고 수용 설득과정에서 내재적 동기에 대한 고려는 별로 없었고 대부분의 연구는 유용성과 같은 외재적 동기를 중심으로 이루어졌다. 본 연구의 목적은 정보기술수용 설득과정의 이해를 넓히기 기존 연구에서 제시된 연구모형에 내재된 동기에 관련된 변수를 포함하고 전체적인 모형을 종단적으로 확장했고, 실증적 검증을 위해 정규 대학과정 과목의 학생들을 대상으로 두 번에 걸친 표본 조사를 하였다.

In the information society, the ability of learners to use computers to conduct self-directed learning is important. Indeed, the higher the computer's ability to use computers, the more the academic achievement needs to be analyzed. The purpose of this study was to identify longitudinal trajectories of student awareness of ICT literacy and frequency of computer use. We also examined the effects of the longitudinal patterns on academic achievement and college major choice. A non-parametric approach, K-means for longitudinal data(KML) algorithm, was conducted using 9-year longitudinal data from Seoul Education Longitudinal Study (2010-2018). Findings indicated that a pattern presenting a higher awareness of ICT literacy and frequency of computer use showed better academic achievements and was likely to prefer to choose engineering-related majors.

Since the characteristics of teachers that affect mathematics academic achievement are constantly changing and affecting mathematics achievement, longitudinal studies that can predict and analyze growth are needed. This study used data from middle and high school students from 2013(first year of middle school) to 2017(second year of high school) of the Seoul Education Longitudibal Study(SELS). By classifying the longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement into similar subgroups, the direct influence of teachers' characteristics(professionalism, expectations, academic feedback) perceived by students on the longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement was examined. As a result of the study, it was found that the characteristics of mathematics teachers(professional performance, expectation, and academic feedback) in group 1(343 students), which included the top 14.5% of students, did not directly affect longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement. Students in the middle 2nd group(745, 32.2%) had academic feedback from the mathematics teacher, and the 2nd group(1225 students) in the lower 53%, which included most of the students, showed that the expectations of the mathematics teacher were the longitudinal mathematics achievement. The change has been shown to have a direct effect. This suggests that support for teaching and learning should also reflect this, as the direct influence of teachers' professionalism, expectations, and academic feedback on longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement is different according to the characteristics and dispositions of students.

A longitudinal study refers to a research method based on longitudinal data repeatedly measured on the same object. Most of the longitudinal analysis methods are suitable for prediction or inference, and are often not suitable for use in exploratory study. In this study, an exploratory method to analyze longitudinal data is presented, which is to find the longitudinal trajectory after determining the best number of clusters by clustering longitudinal data using self-organizing map technique. The proposed methodology was applied to the longitudinal data of the Employment Information Service, and a total of 2,610 samples were analyzed. As a result of applying the methodology to the actual data applied, time-series clustering results were obtained for each panel. This indicates that it is more effective to cluster longitudinal data in advance and perform multilevel longitudinal analysis.

This study used a latent growth curve models(LGCM) to examine longitudinal changes in youth's game usage, self-control and the longitudinal mediation effect of adaptive game use in the relationship between game usage and self-control. A four-year longitudinal data of 863 adolescents from the Game User Panel Survey, provided through participation in the 2019 Game User Panel Research Conference hosted by the Korea Creative Contents Agency, was used to verify the longitudinal mediation effect of adaptive game use. SPSS 21 was used to verify the normality of variables from each wave, and to conduct correlation analysis. Mplus 6.12 was used to verify the longitudinal mediation effect. The results are as follows. First, game usage, self-control and adaptive game yielded linear temporal growth. Second, latent growth curve models showed that the direct effect of game usage on self-control was insignificant, but game usage had a significant indirect effect on self-control through adaptive game use. Continuous adaptive gaming increased self-control. Third, sobel test results showed that both the initial value and change rate of adaptive game use had a full-mediation effect, confirming the longitudinal mediation effect. This study verified the longitudinal change of self-control affected by change in game usage and adaptive game use.

Although many studies have analyzed and identified the importance of intrinsic motivation in the acceptance of information technology (IT), especially hedonic systems such as online game and online shopping, the acceptance of programming languages such as Java were not studied in a view of intrinsic motivations. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of intrinsic motivation on the acceptance of programming language by the longitudinal analysis. In the service of the objective, we suggested the research model which included both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations and longitudinally extended by belief updating theory. For the validation of this model, the university students who participated Java class were surveyed twice, and the suggested research were analyzed by partial least square (PLS). In result, most of the suggested hypotheses were supported.

The study aimed to examine the longitudinal relationship between addictive use of mobile phones and learning activities for elementary school students and to analyze (1)temporal changes of the addictive use of mobile phones and learning activities, (2)temporal relationship between them, and (3)multiple and complex group analysis across gender on the relationship. For the study, 3-year longitudinal data(2010-2012) of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey and autoregressive cross-lagged modeling were used. The findings showed that the addictive use of mobile phones and learning activities had a significant positive effect on the future selves of children over time. The addictive use of mobile phones influenced positively subsequent learning activities, but, the learning activities did not affect the addictive use of mobile phones. Further, there were no significant gender differences in the longitudinal relationship. The study provided the useful data to make guidelines on how to protect mobile phone addiction for elementary school students.

This study used the data of students from the 6th grade to the 3rd grade of middle schoolin the Korean Educational Longitudinal Study 2013 and classified them into subgroups with similar longitudinal changes in math academic achievement. In addition, the influence of longitudinal changes in the group's academic self-concept and teachers and parents academic support on the longitudinal changes in math academic achievement were analyzed, either directly or indirectly. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the academic self-concept of each group had a positive influence on the academic achievement in mathematics. In addition, the academic support of teachers and parents was found to have a positive influence on the academic achievement in mathematics through the mediating of the academic self-concept. In terms of direct and indirect influence on academic self-concept and math vertical scale scores, it was found that teachers' academic support had more influence than parents' academic support. The educational implications of these points were discussed.

In the advanced information age, learning is an activity in which learners access information resources through computers and Internet to acquire and evaluate information on their own. The emergence of an online learning platform based on the fourth industrial revolution technology is developing into an environment in which elementary and secondary learners learn and study based on constructivism learning theory. In the online learning environment, the researches on the information retrieval ability of the elementary and secondary learners and the self-directed learning ability were found to be highly related. However, it is necessary to analyze the relation between information retrieval ability and self-directed learning ability through a cross-sectional study that is limited to specific curriculum and contents and expands the longitudinal research. In this study, the panel data of the Seoul Education Longitudinal Study collected over 8 years are used to find the difference in self-directed learning ability according to the longitudinal pattern of information retrieval ability and frequency.
