The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of protective and risk factors with adolescent delinquency. Using nationally representative data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) project, the delinquency level and the influence of individual characteristics, dyadic relationships in the family, school and peer variables on adolescent delinquency were examined by gender. Boys and girls differed in delinquency level with boys showing significantly higher delinquency than girls. The relative influence of protective and risk factors in individual, familial, peer, and school contexts differed by gender as well. More diverse variables influenced the delinquency level of girls than that of boys.

Objectives: This paper aims to identify depressive or stress related symptoms and its associated risk and protective factors among marriage immigrant women in Korea. Methods: The study participants were 490 immigrant wives from '2012 Survey of Foreign Residents in Korea'. The participants completed self-administered questionnaires on socio-demographics, health status, family members' related factors, and other environmental factors. Results: Difficulties on child nursing, finance, family conflict, and experience of physical or verbal violence were significant risk variables to the depressive stress related symptoms. Family life satisfaction, discussion about troubles with Koreans, healthy status, social trust, and discussion about troubles with people from home country were the significant protective variables to mental health. However economic activities were not protective factors but risk factors. Conclusions: Mental Health promotion programs for marriage immigrant women and their family members need to consider the family and community related protective mental health factors and develop supportive system with pre-existing programs and policy modification.

Objectives: Adolescents are at risk of suicide. As suicide is a multifactorial process, risk and protective factors are relevant constructs for suicide prediction. This study explored the effects of risk and protective factors on suicidal ideation in adolescents on the island of São Miguel (Azores). Methods: A sample of 750 adolescents (male: n=358; 47.7%; mean age=14.67 years; standard deviation=1.85 years) from the island of São Miguel (Azores) completed several measures related to suicidal ideation and associated factors. Using a cross-sectional design, this study conducted descriptive, correlational, predictive, mediation, and moderation analyses. Results: Adolescents generally displayed high levels of risk and protective factors; an indicative proportion exhibited significant suicidal ideation with females presenting the greatest vulnerability. Furthermore, the results highlight that depression is the best predictor of suicidal ideation, however, the association between these variables is mediated. Conclusion: The data corroborate that the suicidal reality of adolescents in the Autonomous Region of the Azores is worrisome. Having substantiated the complexity of the suicidal context in young people in the present research, the need to continue studying risk/protective factors in this area is supported.

본 연구는 치매환자와 동거하는 가족의 자살생각 위험요인과 보호요인에 따라 유형화를 하고, 각 유형집단이 자살생각에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 자살예방을 위한 실증적 기초 자료를 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 2013년 지역사회건강조사를 활용하여 치매환자와 동거하고 있는 가족 2,715명의 자료를 분석대상으로 하였고, 잠재계층모형분석과 이항로지스틱분석을 실시하였다. 주요분석내용은 (1) 자살생각의 위험요인과 보호요인의 유형화 (2) 유형화된 집단이 자살생각에 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 한다. 총24개의 자살생각 위험요인과 보호요인의 지표를 활용하여 잠재적 집단분석을 실시하여 '고위험-저보호요인'집단, '고위험-고보호요인'집단, '저위험-고보호요인'집단, '저위험-저보호요인'집단으로 유형화하였다. 분석 결과, '고위험-저보호요인'집단인 경우 자살생각이 가장 높았고, 유의하게 자살생각을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 결과에 기반한 실천적 함의와 과제를 제시하였다.

This study explored resilience and protective factors in children at-risk. Teachers of 755 children in child care centers replied to questionnaires regarding resiliency and behavior problems; children's mothers replied to questionnaires about risk factors, own parenting, and family hardiness. The data of 216 vulnerable children and 355 children in a comparative group who had not been exposed to any risk factors were analyzed. Findings showed that resilience was differentiated by gender and age; that is, resilience in the vulnerable group covaried as a function of gender and age. The resilience level of the vulnerable group was lower than the comparative group. Children with fewer behavior problems had a higher level of resilience, and resilience was higher for vulnerable children with higher levels of protective factors.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the paths among the risk-protective factors that related to the resilience based on the Challenge Model. The subjects for this study were 209 children from divorced families in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades of elementary schools in Seoul and Gyunggi-do. As the results, there were 28 paths which affected the resilience of children from divorced families based on the Challenge Model. The protective factors were easy temperament, problem-focused coping style, parental support, peer's support, higher socio-economic status, experiences in therapy, presence of siblings, contact with adult caretakers. The risk factors were higher grade, emotion-focused coping style, and children's gender, especially girls. This result demonstrated that each risk and protective factor not only affected resilience separately but interacted with one another.

The subjects for this study consisted of 301 Korean-American students in grades 6 to 12. Findings of this study showed that most of the risk factors in all domains demonstrated a strong relationship to the use of alcohol, tobacco, and other illicit drugs. In the community domain the most common risk factor was "laws favorable toward drug use"(60.2%); this risk factor increased the odds of substance use by approximately 3 times. The protective factor, "opportunity for positive involvement" in school domain reported by 82% of the sample decreased the probability of substance use by 3 times. The percentage of students "resilient" on all protective factors in the family domain was much lower than that of protective factors in other domains. The strongest predictors of substance use were shown in the peer-individual domain.

This study aimed to investigate protective factors and risk factors in elementary students' life satisfaction. Participants were 2844 (1524 boys, 1320 girls) children who grades were 4th, 5th, 6th in KYPS (Korea Youth Panel Survey). Data mining decision tree model was performed with sex, appearance, delinquency, family income, attachment to parents, parental monitoring, attachment to teachers, academic achievement, peer delinquency, and attachments to peer. The results revealed that : (1) For 4th graders, academic achievement, attachment to parents, and appearance were significant predictors for life satisfaction. (2) For 5th graders, attachment to parents, academic achievement, parental monitoring and appearance were significant predictors for life satisfaction. (3) For 6th graders, attachment to parents, appearance, parental monitoring and delinquency were significant predictors for life satisfaction. Protective factors and risk factors were changed according to interactions between significant independent variables. These results suggest that children's diverse conditions should be considered individually in programs for children's life satisfaction.

The subjects for this study on delinquent behavior, substance use and risk/protective factors consisted of 301 Korean-American students in grades 6 to 12. Findings were that (1) the delinquent behavior rate of adolescents using alcohol, tobacco or other substances was higher than that of non-using adolescents, increasing the odds of delinquent behavior from 3 to 45 times. (2) The probability of delinquents in the substance users group was higher by 7 to 44 times than in the non-users group. (3) The relationship with delinquent behavior of risk factors and substance use was much stronger than the relationship with delinquent behavior of protective factors and substance use. (4) The strongest predictor of delinquent behavior or substance use was the peer-individual domain.

본 연구는 중도입국 청소년의 학교적응에 영향을 미치는데 있어 위험요인에 대한 보호요인의 조절효과가 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2015년 전국다문화가족실태조사 대상 중 만 9~24세 청소년 자녀 6,079명 데이터에 가중치를 적용한 69,720명을 분석하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 중도입국 청소년의 위험요인인 차별경험, 학교폭력, 우울은 학교적응에 모두 부적인 영향을 미쳤다. 보호요인인 부모관계, 자아존중감, 한국어 능력, 국적취득은 학교적응에 모두 정적인 영향을 보였다. 둘째, 중도입국 청소년의 학교적응에 있어 3개의 위험요인 가운데 우울을 조절하는 보호요인 중에는 자아존중감과 국적취득 변인, 학교폭력을 조절하는 보호요인은 부모관계, 자아존중감, 한국어 능력, 국적취득 변인으로 분석되었다. 본 연구의 분석결과를 토대로 중도입국 청소년에 대한 우울감소, 학력폭력 대처, 다양한 역량강화 프로그램 개발과 지원을 주요 사회복지적 실천방안으로 제시하였다.
