Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study was to analyze the longitudinal effect of affective characteristics of adolescents on academic achievement. Methods To do this, hierarchical linear growth model was applied to the 1st to 3rd year of the 1st panel by the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey 2018 (KCYPS 2018). Results First, academic achievement increased linearly over the years. Second, the initial status of academic achievement appeared to be higher as creativity, monthly average income, and father's final education were higher. And emotional problems, life satisfaction, and number of siblings showed negative effect on the initial status. Third, it was found that academic enthusiasm had a significant effect on both initial status and change rate of academic achievement. Especially for the girls, the rate of change in academic achievement was in a positive direction. Conclusions It is expected to provide basic data to discuss various teaching and learning methods for increasing academic achievement by improving students' intrinsic and affective characteristics.
