This study examined the structural relationship between children's academic stress, grit, executive function difficulty, and media device addiction. Data on 1,132 children and their mothers from the 11^th (2018)Panel Study on Korean Children were used for the study. Data were collected by Academic Stress Scale, Grit Scale-Children, Child-Adolescent Self-reported Executive Function Difficulty Screening Questionnaire, and K-Internet Addiction Scale. Data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 23.0 program with Pearson correlation, structural equation model and bootstrapping. The main results were as follows. 1) Children's academic stress had a negative influence on their grit. 2) Children's grit had a negative influence on their executive function difficulty and media device addiction. 3) Children's executive function difficulty had a positive influence on their media device addiction. 4) The relationship between children's academic stress and media device addiction was mediated by their grit and executive function difficulty. This study is significant in the sense that it found protective factors and risk factors for children's addiction to media devices. We suggest that children's grit be improved, and their academic stress and executive function difficulty be reduced to prevent and mediate children's media device addiction.

We analyzed and compared factors such as changes in the degree of difficulty of concepts presented in Chemistry I textbook, changes in class types (non-face-to-face, face-to-face), etc. on academic achievement by level (upper, middle, and lower). Students from A high school in Gyeongsangnam-do were selected for the subjects of the study. As a result of analyzing the change in the degree of difficulty of concepts, the total score of chemistry I combined by non-face-to-face and face-to-face classes during the second semester was lower than that of the first semester. As a result of analyzing the impact of factors such as changes in conceptual difficulty, changes in class types, etc. on academic achievement by level, students' grades at the 'lower level' by non-face-to-face classes were lower than those by face-to-face classes. In particular, at the lower level of the second semester, there was a large difference in grades between non-face-to-face and face-to-face classes. In the results of these studies, it was found that instructors' active feedback is important to identify difficulties in understanding learning contents for students with low levels of academic achievement and improve them at the same time.

This study surveyed 2nd graders of B high school and 1st graders of A university in Gyeongnam on factors such as behavior control and interaction in non-face-to-face classes, easy or difficult concepts presented in chemistry I and general chemistry textbooks. Based on the results of the survey, the effect of changes in the difficulty level of concepts presented in chemistry I and general chemistry and changes in class types (face-to-face and non-face-to-face) on students' academic achievement by level was compared and analyzed. In the face-to-face class, the average score between the first and second semesters was similar according to the change in the difficulty of the concepts presented in chemistry I and general chemistry. In the non-face-to-face class, the average score of chemistry I in the second semester was quite low, and the average score of general chemistry was rather high. In non-face-to-face classes, the average score of chemistry I in the second semester of low-level students was significantly lowered due to changes in the difficulty of the concept and changes in class types on academic achievement by level. In the case of 10% of students at the lower level, the academic achievement of chemistry I decreased in both the second semester regardless of the changes in the difficulty level of concepts and the changes in class types.

Objectives: There should be an objective analysis on the academic competency for incorporating Computer-based Test (CBT) in the education of traditional Korean medicine (TKM). However, the Item Response Theory (IRT) for analyzing latent competency has not been introduced for its difficulty in calculation, interpretation and utilization. Methods: The current study analyzed responses of 390 students of 8 years to the herbology test with 14 items by utilizing Rasch model, and the characteristics of test and items were evaluated by using characteristic curve, information curve, difficulty, academic competency, and test score. The academic competency of the students across gender and years were presented with scale characteristic curve, Kernel density map, and Wright map, and examined based on T-test and ANOVA. Results: The estimated item, test, and ability parameters based on Rasch model provided reliable information on academic competency, and organized insights on students, test and items not available with test score calculated by the summation of item scores. The test showed acceptable validity for analyzing academic competency, but some of items revealed difficulty parameters to be modified with Wright map. The gender difference was not distinctive, however the differences between test years were obvious with Kernel density map. Conclusion: The current study analyzed the responses in the herbology test for measuring academic competency in the education of TKM using Rasch model, and structured analysis for competency-based Teaching in the e-learning era was suggested. It would provide the foundation for the learning analytics essential for self-directed learning and competency adaptive learning in TKM.

Background and Objectives: To assess the academic performance, communication skills, and psychosocial development of prelingual deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs) attending mainstream schools, and to evaluate the impact of auditory speech perception on their classroom performance. Subjects and Methods: As participant, 67 children with CI attending mainstream schools were included. A survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire on academic performance in the native language, second language, mathematics, social studies, science, art, communication skills, self-esteem, and social relations. Additionally, auditory and speech performances on the last follow-up were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Most implanted children attending mainstream school appeared to have positive self-esteem and confidence, and had little difficulty in conversing in a quiet classroom. Also, half of the implanted children (38/67) scored above average in general academic achievement. However, academic achievement in the second language (English), social studies, and science were usually poorer than general academic achievement. Furthermore, half of the implanted children had difficulty in understanding the class content (30/67) or conversing with peers in a noisy classroom (32/67). These difficulties were significantly associated with poor speech perception. Conclusions: Improving the listening environment for implanted children attending mainstream schools is necessary.

본 연구의 목적은 초등학교 1학년 시기의 집행기능곤란에 대한 교사와 부모의 평정 결과에 따른 최적의 잠재집단을 찾고, 확인된 잠재집단에 따라 초등학교 2학년 시기의 학교적응, 학업수행에 차이가 있는지 확인하는 것이다. 한국아동패널 8차년도(2015년도), 9차년도(2016년도) 자료의 1,012명의 데이터를 사용하였으며, 분석 방법으로 잠재프로파일 분석과 다변량분산분석을 활용하였다. 잠재프로파일분석 결과, 초등학교 1학년의 집행기능곤란에 대한 어머니와 담임교사의 평정 결과에 따른 잠재집단은 '일치되게 집행기능곤란 수준이 가장 낮은 집단', '어머니보다 담임교사가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단', '담임교사보다 어머니가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단'의 세 유형으로 구분되었다. 본 연구에서 확인된 잠재집단의 특징은 초등학교 1학년의 집행기능곤란에 대한 어머니와 담임교사 간 평정 일치도가 높은 집단과 평정 일치도가 낮은 집단이 공존한다는 것이다. 초등학교 1학년 시기에 확인된 세 유형의 잠재집단에 따라 초등학교 2학년 시기의 학교적응, 학업수행에 차이가 나타났는데, 학교적응의 4개 하위요인 중 3개, 학업수행 하위 요인 모두에서 '일치되게 집행기능곤란 수준이 가장 낮은 집단'이 '담임교사보다 어머니가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단'과 '어머니보다 담임교사가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단'보다, '담임교사보다 어머니가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단'이 '어머니보다 담임교사가 집행기능곤란 수준을 더 높게 지각한 집단'보다 평균 점수가 통계적으로 유의한 수준에서 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 초등학생의 학교적응 및 학업수행에 많은 영향을 미치는 집행기능곤란 수준을 정확하게 판단하기 위해서는 부모와 담임교사의 중다 평정 결과에 기초한 프로파일적 접근이 필요하며, 이에 기초한 교육적 처치를 하는 것이 중요함을 시사한다.

문항반응이론은 문항의 난이도와 변별도가 검사를 치른 집단에 무관하게 항상 일정하며, 학생들이 매번 다른 검사를 치른다고 해도 자신의 고유한 능력점수를 받도록 하기위한 문항분석방법이다. 본 연구에서는 2000년부터 2009년까지 최근 10년 동안 대학수학능력시험에 출제되었던 통계영역 문제에 대하여 문항반응이론을 통한 분석을 실시하고 문항변별도와 문항난이도 등에 대해서 알아보았다. 그 결과 거의 60%의 문항이 어려운 문항으로 나타났다. 그러나 문항변별도는 비교적 양호한 것으로 판명되었다.
