The purpose of this study was to construct a structural equation model that would further explain the depression in Korean adolescents. Based on preceding researches, this study established a path model of depression and its related variables. One thousand nine hundreds ninety-six high school students participated in this study. Data was collected by visit-survey with an organized questionnaire and was analyzed by SPSS and AMOS programs. The result of study are as follows. Self-concept showed a significantly direct influence to depression while both family satisfaction and school adjustment directly and indirectly influenced depression. Parental acceptance, autonomy, school achievement and social support indirectly influenced depression. These results imply that first, family satisfaction and self-concept are essential to solve the problems of depression. Especially friend's support, school adjustment should help improve the self-concept and solve depression. Second, a variety of programs are available for schools to employ in an effort to provide interventions for students who demonstrate depression. Finally, it is necessary for family, school and all the society members to comprehensively cooperate to solve the problem of depression. (Korean J Str Res 2009;17:295∼305)
