ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between adolescent's attachment on parent and self-concept. The subjects were 271 students in the second grade of the junior high school in Busan. The Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment scale(IPPA) and the Self-Concept test were used for collecting data. For the statistical analysis of data, t-test, F-test, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation and Regression were used. The results were as follows : 1. There were significant differences in attachment according to socio-demographic variables(sex, parent's age, parent's education, parent's job, income). 2. There were significant differences in self-concept according to socio-demographic variables(sex, parent's age, parent's education, parent's job, income). 3. Adolescent's attachment on parent was significantly correlated with adolescent's self-concept.
