ABSTRACT

This study explored the factors affecting human rights violations and human rights condition evaluations among Korean university students, by testing a hypothetical explanatory model. To this end, survey data produced from the “Study on the Violence and Human Rights Violation in University Campus and Human Rights Improvement Plan” by the Korean Institute of Criminology (2019) were analyzed. As the result of the AMOS structural equation modeling analysis, various difficulties that students experience in college life weakened their sense of belonging to school and increased the damage of human rights violations. In addition, students who have difficulties in college life recognize the human rights-friendly role and value of universities as important, but are relatively indifferent to the information (systems, responses, etc. of their schools) related to human rights violations. Students with a strong sense of belonging to schools value the human rights-friendly role and value of universities, are more interested in human rights violations, and appreciate the level of human rights protection of schools. However, students who had experienced human rights violation in schools had more knowledge of human rights violations, but were less aware of the level of human rights protection. Students who value the human rights-friendly role and value of universities tended to evaluate the human rights situation in the school well, but students with a high level of knowledge of human rights violations in the school tended to evaluate the level of human rights protection in the school. Even in the overall model that controlled exogenous variables, these relationships between latent variables were very stable and the goodness-of-fit of the model was improved by some parts compared to the structural model. In addition, phantom variables were used to analyze the magnitude and significance level of indirect effects of individual paths between latent variables, and finally, policy implications based on research results were discussed.
