학령기 아동 모바일 의존에 영향을 미치는 부모의 심리적 특성 연구

This study aims to investigate the factors that may influence mobile dependence among school-aged children (7-9 years old), a growing social issue. Understanding the causes of mobile dependence is crucial as it can significantly impact school adaptation among these children. Given that children in this age group are greatly influenced not only by their individual characteristics but also by environmental factors, particularly parental influence, this research focuses on examining the psychological state of parents (e.g., parental stress, depression), parental ambivalence towards mobile use, and parental intervention in mobile use. The study was conducted through surveys at two different points in time. The results indicate that parental stress affects parental depression, ambivalence towards mobile use, parental intervention, and ultimately the mobile dependence of school-aged children, which in turn impacts their school adaptation. Through this study, we were able to verify the mechanisms by which parental stress and psychological attitudes toward mobile use influence mobile dependence and school adaptation in school-aged children.
