남녀 초등학생의 발달환경 요인이 그릿에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Objectives In this study, the influence of elementary school students' developmental environmental factors(parenting attitude, smartphone dependence, friend relationship, teacher relationship) on grit and the difference in influence according to gender were analyzed. Methods For this purpose, analysis was conducted to measure grit-related variables for 2,399 4th grade elementary school students (1,193 males, 1,206 females) in the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (2018). In the hierarchical regression model, parenting attitude(positive/negative), smartphone dependence, friend relationship, and teacher relationship were selected as independent variables, and grit was selected as the dependent variable. Results First, in the relative influence on grit, positive parenting attitude had a significant effect only on male students, whereas negative parenting attitude had a significant effect on both males and females, and showed a higher influence in female students. Second, smartphone dependence showed a statistically significant influence on both males and females, but showed a greater influence on male students. Third, friendship did not have a significant effect on both male and female students. Finally, the teacher relationship showed a statistically significant level of influence on both men and women. Conclusions Based on the results of this study, in order to promote the grit of elementary school students, it is possible to find an efficient method that reflects the importance according to gender for the developmental environmental factors such as parenting attitude, smartphone dependence, friend relationship, and teacher relationship. We want to provide basic data to homes, schools, and related institutions, etc.
