The purpose of this study is to develop academic resilience scale for gifted youth. We extracted the pilot questionnaire of 101 items from open-ended questions with 178 scientifically gifted students and literature review. Item analysis and exploratory factor analysis were also carried out with data of 240 gifted youth. Finally, 11 factors from which 42 items were extracted and validated through the confirmatory factor analysis involving 444 gifted youth throughout the nation. The names of the extracted factors were sense of purpose, self-understanding, educational aspirations, academic self-regulation, task commitment, attribution for success (ability), attribution for success (effort), the interpersonal relationship (friend), the interpersonal relationship (parent), the interpersonal relationship(teacher), and optimism. The results show that all of the path coefficient and construct reliability, AVE (Average Variance Extracted), and coefficient of determination were all acceptable. The result of the study indicated that Academic Resilience Scale for Gifted Youth was positively and significantly correlated with School Adaptation Scale and Resilience Scale. However it was negatively correlated with Academic Burnout Scale, and it was statistically significant. Thus, Academic Resilience Scale for Gifted Youth demonstrated satisfactory internal validity and external validity. The results of the present study suggests theoretical and practical implications of the newly developed Academic Resilience Scale for Gifted Youth.

This study examined the influences of project activities based on multiple intelligences to science achievement of elementary school children. The proportions of variance of science achievement explained by General Intelligence(GI) and Multiple Intelligences(MI) were analyzed, then the influences of project activities, which used various aspects of MI were investigated. Two classes of grade 5 at Pusan in Korea were selected for the study. On the basis of science achievement of prior term, the subjects were classified into upper-, average-, and lower-achievement groups. GI and MI were measured for each child, and the relationships of these measures with prior science achievement were analyzed using multiple regression analyses. In order to investigate the effects of the project activities on science achievement, the classes were divided into the control and experimental groups, which the former group learned science topics using the traditional teaching and learning method and the latter group performed the projects about the same topics using their own multiple intelligences. Then, their achievements were analyzed by ANOVA. Results showed that the proportion of variance explained by MI was higher about two times than that of explained by GI. Project activities contributed to the improvement of science achievement of average and upper achievers, however, in the case of under achievers, this effect was not statistically significant.

This study examined the relationship of resilience, academic stress and academic achievement of nursing students. Data were collected through self reported structured questionnaire in 197 nursing students from September 26 to October 12, 2019. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 23.0. As a result this study, resilience was negatively correlated with academic stress(r=-.46, p<.001). while resilience was positively correlated with academic achievement(r=.48, p<.001). As a result regression analysis, social support, structural style, and positivity among the sub-variables of resilience explained 28.4%(F=24.80, p<.001) of the academic stress in nursing students. Relational, and self confidence explained 22.7%(F=27.80, p<.001) of the academic achievement Therefore, it is necessary to develop interventions that can enhance social support structural style, positivity, relational, and self confidence to manage the academic stress and to improve academic achievement of nursing students.

This study attempted to find out whether learning time has a mediating effect according to the gender, region, and grade of middle school students in the relationship between academic engagement and self-esteem. To this end, a survey of 1,045 middle school students in Gyeongsangnam-do was conducted on academic engagement, learning time, and self-esteem. Difference verification was conducted to determine the difference in academic engagement, learning time, and self-esteem according to the general characteristics of the study subjects, correlation analysis was conducted to determine the correlation between major variables, and regression analysis was conducted to verify the mediating effect of learning time. As a result of the analysis, first, there was no difference in the academic engagement of middle school students by group. In the learning time, middle school students in the city area were significantly higher than those in the township area, male students had higher self-esteem than female students, and students in the city area had significantly higher self-esteem as the grade went up. Second, as a result of correlation analysis, learning time, academic engagement, and self-esteem showed a positive correlation. Third, in the entire group not divided by group, both the direct path through which academic engagement reaches self-esteem and the partial mediating model from learning time to self-esteem showed significant effects. In the analysis by gender, only female students excluding male students showed a partial mediating effect, and the analysis results by region showed a partial mediating effect only on students in the city. The analysis results by grade showed a partial mediating effect only for second-year middle school students. In order to improve the self-esteem of middle school students, education and counseling should be conducted in consideration of not only individual differences by gender and grade, but also the region in which they live.

In this study, we analyzed the characteristics of science academic achievement by multiple culture and North Korean migrant students types, percentage of correct answer and discrimination per items per groups, and contents domains using quantitative and qualitative method in the National Assessment of Educational Achievement (NAEA). As a results of analysis, the degree of science academic achievement of the students from multiple culture and North Korean is much lower than that of the general students. Also, the science academic achievement of the students from multiple culture and North Korean migrant is different from the general students. Especially, science academic achievement of the immigrated students and the North Korean migrant students was lowest. The analysis of items that the difference of the percentage of correct answer was large showed that the students from multiple culture and North Korean migrant were equally weak to it in all contents domains, but that the students from international marriage family born in country were weak in some areas. Therefore, the appropriate the teaching and learning method and the educational support is needed considering the group situation, so the educational implications are discussed.
