Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors related to the teaching competence of staff in juvenile delinquency prevention centers. Based on this, the goal is to find out how to improve the prevention education function in juvenile delinquency prevention centers for youths in crisis. To this end, 272 employees working in the juvenile delinquency prevention centers were surveyed. Of the total 272 respondents, 266 were used for final analysis excluding six insincere cases. As a result, in personal factors, affective empathy and communication skills were significantly predictive of teaching competence. In organizational factors, the leadership of the director was significantly predictive of teaching competence. In other words, the more affective empathy and excellent communication skill, and the more positive the perception of director's leadership, the higher the teaching competence. Based on the results, this study seeks to find how to improve the teaching competence of the juvenile delinquency prevention center staff to strengthen the preventive education function.
