image .779, recognition .779. The model fit indices were /df=3.827, less than .05, TLI=.907, CFI=.939, and
RMSEA=.067, which meant less than .07 of the standard value so adequate model fit indices appeared.
Research 2 is to validate the scale of life goal of Korean adolescents, to check cross-validity, confirmatory
factor analysis was carried out for the questions, the value of was 793.554(df=406), TLI= .930, CFI=
