A Study on the Structural Equation Modeling among Mother's Attachment, Self-Esteem, Emotional Control, and Unadaptive Behavior for Multi-culture Children Heo, Gyun The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships among mother's attachment, self-esteem, emotional control, and unadaptive behavior of multi-culture children. Subjects are 146 elementary school students with multi-culture environment whose mother is a foreigner. The results show that as follow: First, as the result of structural path analysis to find out how mother's attachment affects to children's positive self-esteem. Mother's attachment is significant direct influence to children's positive self-esteem. Second, mother's attachment is significant direct negative influence to unadaptive behavior. Third, positive self-esteem is a positive significant direct effect to the emotional control. But it is not significant affect to the unadaptive behavior. Forth, emotional control is a negative significant direct effect to unadaptive behavior.
