Fandom is a meaningful social phenomenon that represents a significant dimension of contemporary Korean youth culture. Previous research, however, has considered fandom as a deviant activity that is negative in nature, and there is scant research on the positive effects of fandom activity. This study examined the effects of off-line and on-line fandom activity participation on adolescents' academic time management capability. Data were collected from three waves (2010, 2012, and 2014) of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (middle school cohort; N=2,206 at baseline). Results from the multi-level growth curve analysis were as follows. First, more than half of the adolescents reported participating in fandom activities, and the majority of them participated in both online and offline activities. Second, adolescents' academic time management capability improved over time. Third, both off-line and on-line fandom activity participation was positively associated with adolescents' academic time management capability at the baseline (first year of middle school). The size of this relationship, however, decreased over time (from middle school to high school). This study presented the importance of appropriate guidance by adults to develop and promote the positive aspects of fandom activity, and highlighted the need for further research that focuses on the positive aspects of fandom activities.

The effects of regular and active leisure activities on positive growth and development in adolescents are widely known. In our society, however, it is challenging to enjoy or expand such activities due to diverse constraints. Under unfavorable circumstances, this study attempted to investigate the application of time availability for liberal leisure activities as a way to help adolescents engage in active leisure activities. Specifically, this study examined the relationship between time availability (both individual and structural) and the time invested in leisure activities at youth training centers which support such leisure activities. The study found the following results: As both individual and structural time availability expanded, the time invested in leisure activities increased as well. Based on these results, this study discussed policy and practice implications regarding the support of adolescents' leisure activities.

First, gender-based youth activity showed that men were higher in physical activity than women. Emotional and service activity showed women higher than men. Sociality was higher in men than women. Second, the effect of youth activities on sociality was shown to have positive effects in order of emotional, physical and service activities.

본 논문은 우리나라 청소년 인구의 장기적 경제활동참여율 변동추이와 고용(실업)구조에 있어서의 변화에 관한 연구이다. 청소년층의 경제활동참여와 취업은 학교교육의 이수, 군복무, 결혼·출산을 통한 자신의 가족형성 등 일련의 생애전이과정(life-course transitin)과의 긴밀한 연계속에서 이루어지며 따라서 집단적으로는 연령단계에 따라서 큰 변화를 보인다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 지난 20여년간(1980년대-1990대) 청소년층의 연령단계별 경제활동참여 및 취업률이 어떻게 변화해 왔는가를 살펴본다. 청소년기에는 학교에서 노동시장으로의 진입과정(school-to-work transition)을 포함하고 있기 때문에 청소년층의 경제활동참여율 및 취업률은 무엇보다 동 연령집단의 취학률 및 진학률의 변화와 직접적으로 연결되어 있다. 본 논문에서 제시되는 자료에 의하면 지난 20여년간 우리나라 청소년층의 고등학교 및 대학진학률은 지속적이고 급격하게 상승하고 있었던 것으로 나타나고 있으며, 따라서 이러한 변화가 그들의 경제활동참여율 및 고용구조에 있어서의 변화에 미친 영향을 경험적 자료를 통하여 살펴본다. 1980년대 초반이후 우리나라 학교교육체제에 있어서의 변화가 청소년층의 취업구조에 미친 가장 주요한 영향 중의 하나는 높은 대학진학률에 따른 청소년 노동력의 고학력화와 그에 따른 고(高)실업의 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 사회구조적 요인과 고실업을 낳는 노동시장에 있어서의 불평등한 기회구조에 관한 이론적 논의와 경험적 증거들을 제시한다.

Also it provides the user with information about the physical activity by measuring the amount of physical activity of the user through GPS. We propose a way to continuously motivate adolescent's physical activity through this motion interaction game application.

최근에는 산업장 근로자나 노인에게 주로 발생되던 청력손실이 청소년에까지 점차 확대되면서 청소년의 청력뿐 아니라 청소년의 청력에 영향을 미치는 여러 환경 및 요인에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 그 중 외국어 공부나 음악감상용으로 청소년들 사이에 생활필수품처럼 널리 이용되고 있는 휴대용 카세트가 청소년의 소음성 난청원으로 매우 위험하다는 연구결과가 제시되어 학부모, 교사, 전문가에 의해 청소년 청력상태에 대한 조사와 청력손실을 유발하는 위험요인에 대해 많은 연구가 실시되었다. 청소년기에 취미/오락활동, 가정내 기계 기구, 음악, 교통 등의 소음에 상시적으로 노출될 수 있다. 직업적으로 소음에 노출된 적이 없는 청소년에게서 소음성 난청이 발생할 수 있다는 연구결과가 나오고 있는데, 청소년의 소음성 난청은 큰 소리를 내는 장난감과 개인용 음향기기, 콘서트장, 밴드활동 등의 음악과 관련이 있으며 이외에 모터사이클, 모터 스포츠 등의 레저 활동과 관련이 있다. 이러한 소음은 작업장 소음에 의한 초기 청력손실처럼 3~6 kHz 역의 청력손실을 특징적으로 보여준다. 이 글에서는 주요 취미활동과 관련하여 MP3 등 개인용 음향기기와 헤드셋 착용 근로자의 소음 노출 수준과 이에 따른 청력영향을 살펴보고, 소음저감방법에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

성인 조직범죄집단은 조직유지와 활발한 조직활동을 위해 청소년 비행집단의 구성원을 포섭하려한다. 그리고 청소년 비행집단의 구성원은 다양한 이유로 인하여 조직범죄집단에 유입된다. 이는 당해 비행청소년은 물론 그 주변의 청소년들에게도 악영향을 미친다. 이러한 양 집단 간의 연계를 통한 유입현상을 통제하기 위하여 우선 청소년을 대상으로 비행행위에 대한 예방목적의 프로그램 활용은 물론 보다 효과적인 제도의 운용을 위한 구체적 논의가 필요하다. 이에 대해 청소년들이 활동하고 서로를 접하는 공간인 학교와 지역사회에서의 통제는 필수적이며 이러한 이유로 경찰과의 협력을 통한 예방활동에 주목할 필요가 있다.
