이 연구는 중.고등학교 재학 중인 청소년들의 청소년시설 이용수준에 영향을 미치는 요인을 개인, 가족, 학교 층위의 다양한 변수들에 대한 검토를 통해 밝혀내는 것을 목표로 한다. 이 연구는 「2021 아동·청소년 인권실태조사」 자료를 분석한다. 이 연구가 분석하는 자료는 국책연구기관과 전문 조사기관에 의해 수집된 전국단위 자료이며 이는 분석결과의 일반화 수준을 최고 수준으로 담보하고 있다고 할 수 있다. 분석결과를 종합하자면, 먼저 청소년시설 이용 수준은 전체적으로 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 청소년의 시설 이용에 강건하게(robust) 영향을 미치는 변수는 '응답자연령'과 '인권관련지식정보'였다. 즉 나이가 어리고 인권에 대한 지식이나 정보가 관심이나 정보가 많은 청소년이 청소년시설에 적극적임을 알 수 있다. 가족 및 학교 차원 변수들에서는 욕이나 체벌의 경험정도 및 인권침해 경험의 정도가 청소년 시설 이용에 정(+)적인 영향을 미치고 있으며 이는 청소년 시설이 소위 인권위기상황 청소년들에게 일종의 쉘터(shelter)의 기능을 수행하고 있다고 짐작해 볼 수 있는 대목이다. 청소년시설이용을 주제로 한 연구들은 축적된 연구물 자체도 많지 않거니와, 대부분의 연구들이 특정 지역의 청소년시설 이용에 대한 기술적 연구에 국한되어있다. 따라서 이 연구가 구성하는 모형은 이론적 숙고와 문헌검토에 기반했다라기 보다는 연구자의 직관과 자료활용가능성을 고려하여 구성하였음을 밝힌다.

Background: The study is the first of its kind to be conducted in Saudi Arabia (KSA), aiming to analyze the effectiveness of an intervention program in improving the knowledge of oral cancer among the youth. Materials and Methods: A total of 1,051 young Saudis (57% males and 43% females with a mean age of $20.4{\pm}1.98$) were selected using multi-stage cluster sampling. Knowledge assessment was accomplished using a closed-ended questionnaire which was subjected to reliability tests. Prevalence of risk factors in relation to gender was analyzed using the chi-squared test. Effectiveness was calculated by comparing the pre- and post-intervention means, using the two-tailed paired t-test. Multiple logistic regression was employed in order to determine factors associated with awareness of risk habits, signs/symptoms and prevention of oral cancer. The significance level in this study was set at 0.05. Results: Females were seen to be more into the habit of sheesha smoking (3.3% rather than the use of other forms of risk factors. Prevalence of diverse risk factors such as cigarette smoking (20%), sheesha (15.3%), khat (27%) and shamma (9%) was seen among males. Gender and the use of modifiable risk factors among the study sample were significantly (p<0.001) associated with effectiveness of the intervention. The intervention program was highly effective (p<0.001) in improving the knowledge of oral cancer among the youth in Jazan, KSA. Multivariate analysis revealed that age and gender are the most significant factors affecting knowledge. Conclusions: The study gives a direction for further public health initiatives in this oral cancer prone region.

이 연구에서는 최근 체육영재선정에 공통적으로 사용되고 있는 스포츠영재성 검사 항목과 코스타스 점수간의 연관성 분석을 통해 상대적으로 중요한 검사 항목과 그렇지 않은 검사 항목을 통계적으로 밝혀내는 데 목적이 있다. 이 연구를 위해 2010년도 서울지역 (강동구, 송파구, 노원구, 광진구 등)과 경기지역 (의정부시, 가평군, 구리시 등) H대학 체육영재양성사업에 지원한 201명의 초등학교 학생들의 자료가 사용되었으며, 육상 네 종목 (투척, 도약, 단거리, 중장거리), 수영 및 체조 종목의 코스타스 점수와 1차 스포츠영재성 검사에서 얻은 기본 체격, 체력 운동능력, 생리적 기능 정보를 이용하였다. 구체적으로 순수한 연관성 분석을 위해 피어슨상관계수와 편상관계수를 사용하였으며, 중요한 검사 항목 선택을 위해 단계적 회귀분석을 이용하였다. 그 결과 골연령, 체중, 흉위와 50m달리기, 하프스쿼트점프가 6개 코스타스 점수에 미치는 영향이 상대적으로 미약한 것으로 나타났다.

Recently, the use of media has become a daily life due to Covid-19, and education using media has expanded for teenagers. The purpose of this study is to empirically verify how media usage characteristics affect social relationships and school adaptation through the self-efficiency and immersion of teenagers at the youth education site. This study was collected and distributed questionnaires to 250 high school students in Seoul from November 14 to November 21, 2020. The results of the study were derived with a total of 249 questionnaires, excluding one missing questionnaire, and the hypothesis was verified using a Covariance Structure Analysis. Research has shown that, first, the existing, individual, and utility among the characteristics of using youth media have a significant effect on self-efficiency, respectively. Second, only entertainment among the characteristics of youth media use was found to have a significant effect on immersion. Third, immersion has a significant definition effect on school adaptation, and self-efficiency has been shown to have a definition impact on social relationships. Based on this study, we believe that it will be used as a fundamental resource for the development of youth media usage and policy direction in the age of the ever-changing Covid-19.

This study examined the relationships between children's cool executive function(cool EF), hot executive function(hot EF) and self-regulation according to the developmental changes. Children aged 3-5 years (N = 104) participated in this study. The participants completed cool and hot EF tasks and teachers reported on the children's cognitive regulation, emotional regulation, and behavioral regulation by means of questionnaires. The results indicated that cool EF and hot EF had different developmental patterns according to different age groups. High levels of cool/hot EF predicted better abilities in terms of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral regulation respectively. The relationship between coo/hot EF and cognitive/behavioral regulation were moderated by age, except in the case of emotional regulation. This paper also offers a detailed discussion of results and recommendations for future studies.

This study examines factors of unemployment and career path challenges commonly faced by youth in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The study employed a quantitative approach which involved a total of 1,083 youths in Kelantan, Pahang and Terengganu selected at random. Descriptive and multiple regression analysis (OLS) methods were used to analyze demographic distribution of youth in determining factors influencing unemployment among them. The results reveal that the majority of youth respondents in the East Coast states of Malaysia are still unemployed and actively seeking employment. Demographic profiles are based on the survey results, youths seeking employment with 36 per cent distribution in Kelantan, 34 per cent in Pahang, and 30 per cent in Terengganu. Majority of the respondents were youths aged 20 to 24 years with a 40.9 percent percentage. The findings show that there are differences in factors affecting youth unemployment in the three states of East Coast, Malaysia. For Kelantan (age, experience, work mobility, marital status), Pahang (experience, marital status) and Terengganu (experience, gender, marital status, training).

청년층의 취업 경쟁은 점차 심화되어 졸업유예, 취업단념과 같은 청년실업문제로 이어지고 있다. 이 연구는 개인의 취업 준비 노력이 근로 참여 양상에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 특히, 대학(원)생을 중심으로 어떠한 변수가 취업준비 동기를 촉발하는지를 반복측정 자료로 규명하였다. 이를 위하여 한국고용정보원에서 주관하는 청년패널조사(Youth Panel; YP) YP2007의 3~5차 연도인 2009~2011년 자료를 분석하였다. 최종 연구에 적용한 대상은 남성 3,481명, 여성 3,770명이었으며, 분석을 위하여 일반화추정방정식(Generalized Estimating Equations; GEEs) 방법을 이용한 패널로짓모형을 적용하였다. 교육적 요인과 인구경제적 요인을 통제하여 분석한 결과, 직업교육 및 훈련 여부, 진로지도 상담 유무, 직업체험 프로그램 참가 여부, 신규 자격증 취득 여부, 성별, 연령, 가구 총소득의 변동은 취업준비에 유의하게 영향을 주었다. 이 연구는 개인의 취업 준비 노력이 근로 참여 양상에 유의한 영향을 주었음을 밝혔으며, 각 요인 간 영향력의 정도를 실증적으로 보여주었다. 청년실업 문제는 청년층의 근로참여 동기와 같은 보다 근본적인 관점에서의 정책적 접근이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
