여자 중·고등학생의 교복평가와 교복변형 -인천광역시를 중심으로-

Abstract

Girls' school uniform evaluative criteria and their uniform modification were investigated. The data were col-lected by questionaire from 579 middle and high school girls living in Incheon during the fall of 2003. The uniform eval-uative criteria consisted of five dimensions: aesthetics, comfort, economy, management, and status concealment factor. The uniform evaluative criteria were used to cluster the students into five groups: economic, practical, aesthetic, neg-ative, and active. The uniform modifications were investigated in regard to sleeve length, sleeve width, breast width, jacket length, skirt length, hip width, and waist width. The aesthetic and the active groups intended to modify uniforms less in sleeve length and skirt length than the other thre groups. There were significant differences in the uniform mod-ifications among demographics: schol years, height, weight, spending money, satisfaction/dissatisfaction with spending money, and clothing expenditures.
