정서 인식 및 표현 양식에 따른 하위집단과 심리적 건강 = Subtypes Based on Coping through Understanding andExpression of Emotion and Psychological Adjustment

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study examined the factor structure of the Coping through Understanding and Expression of Emotion Scale through a robust exploratory factor analysis with a large scale of college student sample (N=905) as well as a confirmatory factor analysis with another sample of college students (N=287). The results favored a 4-factor solution (regulated understanding, masked expressing, vented expressing, and regulated expressing) over the original 5-factor solution. Additionally, with the second sample, cluster analysis entering the four factors as the clustering variables was conducted to identify natural groupings of people in terms of their use of emotion-focused coping. The cluster analysis along with MANOVA results suggest the presence of four clusters (high regulating group, low emotional-coping group, high masked- expressing group, and high vented-expressing group) and the four groups significantly differ on their scores across various psychological symptoms. Particularly, high vented-expressing group reveals the most elevated symptoms among the four groups, which indicates that people venting emotions would experience more psychological distress.

본 연구에서는 먼저, ‘정서인식 및 정서표현에 의한 대처 척도'의 요인 구조를 대규모의 대학생 집단(N = 905)을 대상으로 엄정한 탐색적 요인분석으로 조사하고 그 타당성을 다른 대학생 집단(N = 287)을 대상으로 한 확인적 요인분석을 통해 검증하였다. 그 결과, 기존의 5요인이 아닌 4요인(조절적 정서인지, 차폐적 정서행동, 발산적 정서행동, 조절적 정서행동)이 도출되었다. 다음으로, 이 네 차원에 따라 두 번째 표본에서 어떤 자연 발생적인 하위집단이 형성되는지 알아보기 위해 군집분석을 실시하고 각 하위집단별로 심리적 건강 지표에서 유의미한 차이가 있는지 알아보기 위해 다변량 분산분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 네 개의 군집(높은 조절 집단, 낮은 정서대처 집단, 높은 차폐행동 집단, 높은 발산행동 집단)이 나타났고, 군집 간에 심리적 건강 지표에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 특히, 높은 발산행동 집단이 전반적으로 심리적 건강지표에서 가장 부적응적인 양상을 나타냈는데, 이 결과는 부적절한 정서의 분출을 주로 사용하는 사람들이 전반적으로 심리적으로 건강하지 못함을 시사한다.
