국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 대학생들이 경험하는 스트레스, 불안 및 우울수준을 파악하고 그에 관련된 요인을 검토하고자 실 시하였다. 조사대상은 대전광역시에 소재하고 있는 대학에 재학 중인 대학생 551명으로 하였으며, 자료 수집은 2012 년 4월 1일부터 6월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 표준화된 자기기입식 설문지(self-administered questionnaire)를 사용한 설문조사에 의하였다. 설문지의 내용은 독립변수로 학생들의 개인 및 가정생활특성, 학교생활 특성 및 건강관련행위 특성을 조사하였고, 종속변수로는 사회심리적 스트레스수준, 불안수준 및 우울수준을 조사하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상 대학생들이 경험하고 있는 고위험 스트레스는 22.7%, 불안은 15.6%, 우울은 22.1%로 나타났으며, 이들에 관련된 요 인으로는 성별, 가정의 경제상태, 가정생활의 만족도, 학교성적, 교우관계, 학교생활에 대한 만족도, 주관적인 수면의 질 및 주관적인 건강상태 등을 지적할 수 있었다. 특히, 사회심리적 스트레스에는 개인 및 가정생활 특성 변수가, 불 안 및 우울에는 사회심리적 스트레스가 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 대학생들의 스트레스, 불안 및 우울수준을 낮추기 위해서는 개인 및 가정생활 특성이나 학교생활 특성 외에도 사회심리적 스트레스 요인을 적절 하게 통제할 수 있는 프로그램의 개발 및 운영이 필요하다고 본다.
