The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of household income on children's academic achievement, and to identify the mediating effects of parental time and material investment in the relationship between the two variables. We utilized the third-wave data of the "Seoul Panel Study of Children Surveys(SPSC, 2006)". The major findings of the present study are as follows. First, the results show that household income has a positive influence on children's academic achievement. Second, parental material investment fully mediates the influence of household income on children's academic achievement. Among the variables representing parental material investment, the mediating effects of "purchasing of cognitively stimulating materials" and "participating in extracurricular activities' are found to be statistically significant. However, the two variables representing parental time investment ("parent activities with child out of home" and "parent involvement in school") do not have any significant influence on children's academic achievement. These results indicate that the influence of household income on children's academic achievement can be better explained by parental material investment rather than parental time investment. Implications for policy and practice are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among children's perceived parental attachment, parental happiness, and children's autonomy, and to find out in detail the influence of parental attachment and parental happiness on children's autonomy. Frequency analysis and descriptive statistical analysis were performed on data from the 12th year of the Korean Children's Panel (2019), and Pearson's moment correlation coefficient was calculated for correlation analysis between variables. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine the influence of parental attachment and parental happiness on children's autonomy. The research results were as follows. First, parental attachment perceived by children, parental happiness, and children's autonomy were all positively correlated. Second, among the sub-variables of parental attachment, maternal trust, paternal trust, and maternal communication were found to have an influence, and only maternal happiness was found to have an effect on parental happiness. This means that parental attachment acts as a more important variable than parental happiness. Therefore, we need constant attention and effort to support children in a more intimate and stable relationship with their parents so that they can gain life satisfaction through active and proactive choices and decisions.

This study is to suggest some theoretical and policy implications through investigating the relationships between parental attitude and adolescent's self_esteem. This study analyzed some data including parental attitude and self_esteem from KCYPS. Parental attitude was supposed not to change as time goes by. The analytical results are the followings. First, the change rate and intercept of adolescent's self-esteem were significant, which means the change pattern of self-esteem depends on adolescent. Second, positive parental attitudes influence on the change pattern of adolescent's self-esteem significantly. Third, negative parental attitude influence on the change pattern of adolescent's self-esteem significantly. This study suggests some policy implications basing on these analytical results.

This research conducted an empirical analysis of factors that influence the process of job choices and start-ups among the youth. By conducting a comparative analysis on 6 countries with adequate career systems and booming startup industries (China, Indonesia, the UK, Germany, Israel, the US.). The statistical sample is based on the Global Entrepreneurship Trend Ratio and covers a total of 7,082 youth across 7 countries. Multivariate variance analysis and correlational analysis were conductedto compare the average figures among different countries and analyze the regulation effect of parental influence. Job satisfaction, parental influence, and willingness to change future job were selected as the factors that influence job choices. Korea's job satisfaction was the lowest among 7 countries and a willingness to change future job was the highest. Meanwhile, Korea's parental influence was at a medium level among 7 countries. It was proven that job satisfaction had a quasi-control effect on the process of influencing willingness to change future job. Entrepreneurial education, willingness to start-up, job satisfaction, and parental influence were chosen as the factors that influence start-up. Two-way ANOVA were conducted to comparatively analyze each country's average, mutual influence among different factors, and analyze the regulation effect of parental influence. In all countries, start-up education has the effect of raising the willingness to start-up. Also, it was verified that parental influence had a quasi-control effect in the process of career satisfaction influencing the willingness to start-up. The research results will provide meaningful implications for the government and educational institutes including universities when designing policy directions to guide overall career for the youth in the future.

This study attempted to investigate the influence of psychological separation and parental attachment of school resilience of middle school students. Although six hundred forty two middle school students participated in this study, final subjects of this study were 492(male, 243; female, 249) ones. Participants completed Psychological Separation Inventory, Parental Attachment Inventory and School Resilience Scale. Collected data were statistically analyzed using t-test, product moment correlation coefficient and multiple regression. The results of analyses revealed psychological separation statistically significantly predicted school resilience of middle school students and parental attachment statistically significantly predicted school resilience of middle school students. Based upon above results, it is concluded that psychological separation and parental attachment can be useful protective factors for school resilience. The implications of these results were discussed and future research questions were suggested with several comments on limitations of this study.

Sex of the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus is mainly determined by an XX/XY system. However, accumulating evidences suggest the existence of additional sex modifying factors including environmental, autosomal and parental influences. In order to investigate the possibility of parental effects on sex ratios of tilapia progenies, in this study, a series of crosses was carried out using gynogenetic clonal fish, neomales, normal males and females, and YY fish. Crosses between clonal XX male and clonal female have yielded only female progenies and no parental influences were observed. However, in the crosses between clonal males and normal females, female parents were significantly associated with the progeny sex ratios ($X^2$=20.046, 7 d.f., p<0.01). Progeny sex ratios from the crosses between neomales and normal females ($X^2$=60.491, 5 d.f and $X^2$=28.072, 2 d.f.) also showed significant association with female parents (P<0.001). The stability of progeny sex ratios from repeated spawns were confirmed by using 6 different parental pairs. In 16 crosses between normal males and normal females, sex ratios of progenies showed clear maternal influences, and further analysis of the results revealed a negative correlation ($r^2$=0.7718, p<0.05) between the sex ratios of progenies from two different males, indicating a strong paternal influence. No statistically significant relationship between survival rates and sex ratios of progenies was observed in any genotypic groups. Taken together, the influence of parental pairs on progeny sex ratios in this species is evident although the cause of this influence is not clear.

The present study investigated the influence of parental behavior on their children's dating violence and the pathways by which parental behavior affected their children's violent acts in their respective dating relationships. The related variables in parental behavior were marital violence, child abuse, and parental support. This study identified whether parental violence and support behavior effected dating violence, and if that dating violence was in any way mediated by conflict resolution skills, depression, or delinquency. In addition, the study examined any differences between males and females that were affected by parental behavior. Subjects included 760 students from 14 of the universities in and around Seoul. The Structural Equation Model(SEM) was employed to fulfill the study objectives. The SEM results were the following: The experience of child abuse was associated with severe forms of dating violence, and was only mediated by delinquent acts. Such outcomes were consistent across genders. In this data set, in contrast to the previous studies, the observation of parental violence was not related to children's violent behavior. According to the analysis of SEM, parental support rather than parental violence was more likely to influence their children's dating violence. The lower the level of parental support the greater the negative affect on children's conflict resolution skills, depression, and delinquency, which in turn had an influence on their dating violence. More specifically, an attitude of parental neglect adversely affected women's conflict resolution skills, and increased the frequency of male delinquent behavior. In the light of these findings, practical implications for decreasing dating violence were discussed.

This study investigated the self-related and parental factors that influence depression in 204 adolescents from a low social economic status background. The self-related factors were self-trust and emotional regulation, and the parental factors were parental concern and domestic violence. The results showed that girls were more likely to be depressive, but had better emotional regulations and a closer relationship with their parents than boys. There was no significant difference between age groups with respect to parental concern, self-trust and emotion regulation. It was also found by regression analyses that girls' depression was predicted by both emotional regulation and parental concern while boys' depression was predicted only by self-trust. The finding suggested that intervention for boys' depression has to focus more on intrapersonal factors, but should emphasize interpersonal factors for girls.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of adolescents' academic stress on academic burnout and academic engagement and the moderating effects of parental academic involvement behavior on the relation between academic stress, academic burnout and academic engagement. The main results of this study were as follows. First, adolescents' academic stress had an influence on academic burnout and academic engagement. The higher adolescents' academic stress was, the higher academic burnout and the lowerer academic engagement were. Second, adolescents'academic stress and parental adequacy results pursuit behavior influenced academic burnout. That is, the level of adolescents'academic stress and parental behavior encouraging academic progress of children caused the low academic burnout. And parental behavior encouraging academic progress of children appeared to have a moderating effect on the relation between academic stress and academic burnout. Third, adolescents'academic stress, parental behavior pursuing adequate result, encouraging academic progress and granting their children academic options influenced academic engagement. However, parental academic involvement behavior appeared not to have a moderating effect on the relation between academic stress and academic engagement.
