범죄피해경험 및 우울감이 청소년 삶의 질에 미치는 영향

Abstract

This study analyzed the effect of criminal victimization experience on the quality of life of adolescents and the mediating effect of depression in these causal relationships was analyzed. The fact that life satisfaction in adolescence decreases compared to other periods of life should be treated as a very serious problem. This is because the number of teenagers who end their lives by suicide is increasing every year. Nevertheless, not many studies have been conducted on the quality of life of adolescents. This study statistically analyzed the structural equation model to obtain the following results. First, Violence victimization and cyberbullying victimization do not directly affect the quality of life of adolescents, but abuse from parents have a direct effect. Second, Depression has a mediating effect in the effect of cyberbullying victimizaton and abuse at home on the quality of life of adolescents.In the case of cyberbullying, depression has a complete mediating effect in the quality of life and causal relationship. The finding of the research results is as follows. Unlike the previous explanation that in adolescence, the influence from peers is greater than from family, it was still found that the most influenced by adolescents is still the family. The effect will be more positive only when the role of the family must be included in the youth-related recovery program. Above all, strengthening family relationships will contribute to improving the quality of life of adolescents.
