“…자기조절 발달이론 (Kopp, 1982)에 따르면, 유아는 부모나 교 사와 같은 주요한 성인의 요구와 기대에 부응하기 위해 행동을 조 절하다가 점차 외부의 규칙 없이도 내적으로 행동을 조절하는 능 력을 발달시키게 된다 (Grolnick & Farkas, 2002;Lee, 2009). (Kim & Kim, 2022).…”

This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of the screen media time of young children on the relationship between mothers’ reasons for allowing young children to use screen media and their children’s ability to regulate screen media. The participants consisted of 614 children aged 5-6 (312 boys and 302 girls), and all the survey questions were answered by their mothers. Descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation, structural equation modeling, and bootstrapping analysis were employed to analyze the data using SPSS 25.0 and Mplus 8.6. The results were as follows. First, mothers’ educational and ritualized reasons for allowing young children to use screen media and children’s screen media time directly affected young children’s ability to regulate screen media. Second, children’s screen media time mediated the relationship between mothers’ educational and ritualized reasons for allowing their children to use screen media and children’s ability to regulate screen media. When mothers permitted their children to use screen media for educational purposes, their children were likely to spend less time on screen media usage which, in turn, increased their ability to regulate screen media. Conversely, the more mothers allowed their children to use screen media for ceremonial purposes, the more time their children spent on screen media and the less ability they had to regulate screen media usage. These outcomes suggest that, to improve children’s screen media regulation ability, mothers must not routinely allow their children to use screen media and should manage their children’s screen media time.

Objectives: This study examined the dual mediating effects of parents’ smart media mediation(active mediation) and children’s self-regulation on the relationship between parents’ intention to provide smart media and children’s smart media overdependence.Methods: Data were collected from 514 parents of 5-year-old children who had previously used smart media. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and partial correlations were analyzed using JASP. Structural equation model(SEM) analysis was conducted using R Studio. Bootstrapping method was used to examine indirect effects.Results: First, parents’ smart media mediation(active mediation) had no partial mediating effect on the relationship between parents’ intention to provide smart media and children’s smart media overdependence. Second, children’s self-regulation had partial mediating effects on the relationship between parents’ intention to provide smart media and children’s smart media overdependence. Finally, parents’ smart media mediation(active mediation) and children’s self-regulation had dual mediating effects on the influence of parents’ intention to provide smart media on children's smart media overdependence.Conclusion: To reduce children’s long-term smart media overdependence, it is necessary to develop selfregulation that allows the independent and active use of smart media. Therefore, parents must determine their intentions to provide smart media to their children, avoid convenience intention, and reinforce their educational intention to provide smart media. Nevertheless, parents should develop self-regulation in their children through appropriate mediation, where they discuss rules, negative situations, and safe use.
