Abstract

This study analyzed the differences in parents' perceptions toward children's adjustments after grade skipping and early graduation. Parents of an early entrancer to K university(n=43) and parents of a non-early entrancer to K university(n=12) responded two kinds of questionnaires, one is for parents' perceptions towards children's needs for grade skipping and early graduation, and the other is for parents' perceptions toward children's adjustments to university experiences. Parents' responses were analyzed by MANOVA and MANCOVA. Results indicated that there was the significant difference in parents' perceptions for 'information about early graduation.' That is, parents of an early-entrancer had more 'information about early graduation' than their counterparts. However, there was no significant difference in parents' perceptions, after the effect of 'information about early graduation' on parents' perceptions toward children' academical and social-emotional adjustments. Thus, parents having more 'information about early graduation' considered more seriously the needs of grade skipping and early graduation in their children and worried less about their children's adjustments to university experiences.

본 연구는 K 대학교에 재학 중인 학생 57명의 부모를 대상으로 자녀의 조기진급 및 조기졸업의 필요성과 대학생활 적응에 대한 부모지각을 다변량 분산분석(Multivariate Analysis of Variance)과 다변량 공분산분석(Multivariate Analysis of Covariance)을 실시하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 조기진급 및 조기졸업을 한 자녀를 룬 부모는 고등학교 3년 과정을 마치고 대학에 입학한 자녀를 둔 부모보다 '조기진급에 대한 정보'를 더 만이 알고 있었던 것으로 나타났다. 이에, 본 연구는 '조기진급에 대한 정보'를 공변량으로 통제한 후, 자녀의 적응에 대한 부모지각을 조사하였다. 그 결과, '조기 진급에 대한 정보'를 많이 가지고 있었던 부모는 자녀가 대학에 보다 잘 적응한다고 지각하였다. 그러나 '조기진급에 대한 정보'가 자녀의 적응에 대한 부모지각에 미치는 영향을 통제하였을 때, 조기진급 및 조기졸업 유무에 따른 부모지각에서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 따라서 조기진급 및 조기졸업에 대한 정보를 많이 가지고 있는 부모 일수록 이에 대한 필요성을 보다 신중하게 고려하며 의사결정에 임할 뿐 아니라, 대학에 입학한 자녀의 진로 및 학습 적응 그리고 대학 생활에서 자녀가 경험하는 사회정서적 적응에 대해서도 비교적 덜 우려하는 것으로 나타났다.
