초등학교 교육복지우선지원사업 효과 분석: 4학년의 행복과 자존감에 미치는 영향

초록

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of education welfare priority support programs (EWPSP) on the happiness and self-esteem of fourth-grade elementary students. Specifically, after controlling for gender and the number of program participation, we investigated the differences in the programs’ effects on priority support students (n=212) and non-priority support students (n=170) in elementary schools (n=44) nationwide using partial least squares–multigroup analysis (PLS–MGA). The results of structural equation modeling showed a statistically significant positive relationship between program participation and program satisfaction and statistically significant positive effects of program satisfaction on the happiness and self-esteem of fourth-grade elementary students. Additionally, the results of multigroup analysis indicated that there was no difference in programs’ effects between priority support students and non-priority support students, which indicates statistically significant positive effects of program satisfaction regardless of group. Program participation do have indirect effects on the happiness and self-esteem with mediation effects of program satisfaction. Our final models explained 21% of variance in happiness and 18% of variance in self-esteem of fourth-grade elementary students.
