The Preventive Education for Adolescents'Problems need to be programmed incorporating 'sex', 'family relationship', 'personality', 'delinquency', 'friendship', 'future plan', 'studying' and 'violence'. 2. Adolescents, whether they were students or workers, requested counseling regarding the matters of 'sex'in the general basis, while parents and teachers requested counseling with regard to the adolescents'problems of 'family relationships'and 'delinquency'. This implied that there was a perceptual difference in the adolescents'problems between adolescents and their parents or teachers. Therefore, 'communications'and 'conflict resolution'need to be included in the program. 3. There were more suggestions for a desirable preventive program : 'cooperative society'need to be emphasized ; financial, administrative and policy supports form schools and authorities are needed ; program building should be facilitated through the cooperation between the researchers in universities and the secondary school teachers in the field.

본 연구는 청소년건강행태온라인조사 제 7차 데이터를 이용하여 다문화 가정 청소년과 일반 가정 청소년들 간의 성 관련 경험 차이를 분석하였으며 이러한 차이에 아버지의 학력과 성교육의 영향력을 살펴보았다. 구체적으로 성 관련 경험을 종속변수로, 다문화 여부를 독립변수로, 아버지의 학력과 성교육을 조절변수로 선정하였으며 독립변수와 조절변수들의 영향력을 살펴보기 위하여 SPSS 20.0을 이용하여 GLM(General Linear Model)을 실시하였다. 분석결과 다문화여부의 주효과가 검증되었으며 아버지의 학력과 성교육 조절효과 또한 검증되었다. 구체적으로 일반 가정 청소년들 보다 다문화 가정 청소년의 성 관련 경험이 더 많은 것으로 나타났으며 일반가정 청소년들 보다 다문화 가정 청소년들의 성 관련 경험에 대해 아버지의 학력과 성교육의 영향력이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 일반가정 청소년들은 아버지의 학력과 성교육에 따라 성 관련 경험의 차이가 크지 않지만 다문화 가정 청소년들의 경우 아버지의 학력이 낮은 집단과 성교육을 받지 않는 집단이 그렇지 않은 집단과 비교해 성 관련 경험이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives: Lack of physical activity has a critical effect on the physical and mental health of adolescents. This study examined the influence of family adversities on the longitudinal changes in physical inactivity among adolescents during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods: The study used multi-wave data from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey, including 2590 Korean adolescents aged 12-14 years. The longitudinal trajectory of physical inactivity among adolescents and the effects of related factors were estimated using a latent growth modeling method. Results: Our results revealed a significant increase in physical inactivity among adolescents over time. At the onset of the pandemic, approximately one-seventh of Korean middle schoolers reported a lack of physical activity. However, 3 years later, during the quarantine, nearly one-fifth of these adolescents reported a significant increase in their physical inactivity. Initially, low level parental education was predictive of adolescents' physical inactivity, but this effect diminished over time, becoming statistically insignificant by the end of the 3-year period. Moreover, the increase in physical inactivity over the 3 years was significantly influenced by parental rejection. Conclusions: These findings suggest that adolescents who experience parental rejection are more likely to report an increase in sedentary behaviors in contexts such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

With the Westernization and opening of our society, adolescents' smoking is increasing and being popularized. Many adolescents start smoking at an early age out of curiosity and venturesomeness, and earlier start of smoking makes it more difficult to quit smoking. Adolescents' habitual smoking not only becomes a gateway to all kinds of substance abuse but also causes various health problems including upper respiratory infection, immature lung development, reduced maximum vital capacity, and lung cancer. Therefore, it is quite important to prevent adolescents from smoking. The lowering of adolescents' smoking rate cannot be achieved only through social restrictions such as stereotyped education on the harms of smoking and ID checking. In order to lower adolescents' smoking rate substantially, each area of society should develop standardized programs and make related efforts. As adolescents' smoking is highly influenced by home environment or school life, it is necessary to make efforts in effective education and social reinforcement in school, to establish related norms, and to execute preventive education using peer groups. When these efforts are spread throughout society in cooperation with homes and communities, they will be helpful to protect adolescents' health and improve their quality of life.
