대처양식 집단에 따른 꾸물거림 및 정신건강의 차이 = Clusters of Coping Styles and Their Differences in Procrastination and Psychological Distress

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The current investigation with two separate studies aimed：(a) to investigate the validity of the 3-factor structure of the Problem-Focused Style of Coping (PF-SOC, Heppner et al., 1995), (b) to identify clusters naturally generated on the basis of the extracted dimensions of coping styles in the PF-SOC, and (c) to examine the characteristics of the clusters on measures of procrastination and psychological distress. The results of Study 1(N = 248) provided support for the existence of three coping styles (reflective, suppressive, and reactive) and two clusters of people (reflective-coping group and maladaptive emotion-coping group) with the former group showing higher levels of self-esteem than the latter. The results of Study 2 (N=154) including preliminary cluster analyses revealed that the maladaptive emotion-coping group exhibited higher levels of procrastination as well as most of the indices of psychological distress (obsessive-compulsive, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, paranoid ideation, psychoticism, and Global Severity Index), compared to their counterpart. This study ends with implications, limitations, and suggestions for future studies.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 두 개의 연구로 구성되어 있다. 연구 1에서는 한국 대학생 집단(N=258)을 대상으로 미국에서 개발된 문제중심 대처양식 척도(Problem-Focused Style of Coping：PF-SOC; Heppner, Cook, Wright, & Johnson, 1995)의 3요인 구조(사려형 대처, 억제형 대처, 반동형 대처양식)가 타당한지를 알아보기 위해 확인적 요인분석을 실시하였고, 그 결과 PF-SOC의 3요인 구조 모형이 한국 대학생에게도 양호하게 적용될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 이 세 하위요인들을 바탕으로 군집분석을 실시한 결과 한국 대학생 집단에서 ‘사려형 대처집단’과 ‘역기능적 정서대처집단’의 두 가지 군집이 존재하는 것으로 나타났으며 사려형 대처집단이 역기능적 정서대처집단에 비해 자존감 점수가 유의하게 높았다. 연구 2에서는 먼저 예비연구로 연구 1에서 나타난 두 군집이 다른 대학생 표본(N=154)에서도 그대로 나타나는지를 조사한 결과 두 군집의 존재를 재확인하였다. 그 다음 이 두 군집이 종속변인(꾸물거림 및 정신건강 지표) 상에서 유의한 차이가 있을 것이라는 가설을 검증하였다. 가설대로 ‘역기능적 정서대처집단'은 ‘사려형 대처집단'에 비해 높은 꾸물거림 수준과 더 많은 심리적 부적응을 호소하였다. 본 연구결과는 한국 대학생의 대처양식을 조사할 때 문제중심 대처양식 척도가 유용한 도구임을 밝혔고, ‘사려형 대처집단' 및 ‘역기능적 정서대처집단'의 존재와 이 집단들이 꾸물거림과 심리적 부적응 측면에서 차이가 있음을 경험적으로 밝혔다는데 의의가 있다.
