Effects of Perceived Social Supports of Youths in Residential Care on School Resilience - Focusing on the Mediator Effects of Self-esteem -
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of perceived social supports of youths in residential care on school resilience focusing on the mediator effect of self-esteem. Data were collected from 226 nationwide child welfare institutions by mailing questionnaire surveys. Ten thousand four hundred seventy two adolescents were responded. Correlation analysis, stepwised multiple regression analysis, Baron & Kenny(1986)' mediating analysis, and Sobel test were used in the data analysis. The major findings were as follows: First, perceived social supports of youths in residential care had positive effects on self-esteem. Second, their perceived social supports also had positive effects on school resilience. Finally, self- esteem proved to have a partial mediating effect between the effects of perceived social supports and school resilience. Based on these results, implications for social work practice and policy were suggested.
