| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships among psychological characteristics (stress, depression, and anxiety), parent-child relationships (communication styles and authoritarian parenting), and coping strategies (social support, problem-solving, and avoidance) of adolescents from multicultural families. For the research survey, the data was collected through self-reporting questionnaires distributed to adolescents from multicultural families in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Chungcheong, and Jeolla provinces. The sample of 179 adolescents were analyzed by using t-test, ANOVA, and hierarchical regression with SPSS 20.0. The major findings are as follows: 1) The parent-child's open communication style and the seeking of social support as a coping strategy were significant predictors of the child’s level of school adjustment. 2) When coping strategy variables were included in the model, the parent-child's open communication style was no longer significant, and only the seeking of social support as a coping strategy was a significant predictor in the model. These results indicated that networking in a social support system in school and a positive parental relationship are both necessary to enhance the school adjustment of adolescents from multicultural families in Korea. |
