This study attempted empirical validation about the effect of parents` abuse and neglect on aggression of youth. In particular, we were to examine if aggression is changed by a medium of teenagers` mobile phone addiction. To this end, the 3rd year data of Korean Children¤ýYouth Panel Study(KCYPS) surveyed by National Youth Policy Institute were used. According to research findings, first, parents` abuse and neglect had a positive effect on aggressiveness of youth. This can be interpreted as because teenagers learned physical abuse or violent language received from parents and as a result, it was expressed as aggression. Second, parents` abuse and neglect had a positive effect on aggressiveness by a medium of mobile phone addiction. This is related to the fact that teenagers who experienced abuse and neglect are getting dependent on other mediators than the formation of interpersonal relations. It is a mobile phone that is the most easily accessible to children accustomed to being alone. As getting dependent on a mobile phone, they may be isolated alone and lose the opportunity to grow their feelings and others`s feelings, meaning that aggression can grow. Based on the above results, abuse and neglect, teenagers` dependency on mobile phone and social welfare intervention for aggression were discussed.
