사회공포증 증상과 사회기술의 관계에 대한 실험 연구: 아동, 어머니, 평정자간 비교 = Experimental Study on the Relationship between Symptoms of Social Phobia and Social Skills: Comparison of the Ratings of Children, their Mothers and Observers

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구에서는 아동기 사회공포증이 사회기술의 결함과 관련이 있는지 알아보고자 아동의 사회공포증 증상과 평정자와 어머니가 평정한 객관적인 사회기술 그리고 아동과 어머니가 평정한 주관적인 사회기술 측정치간의 관계를 조사하였다. 사회공포증 또는 사회공포증과 함께 기타 불안장애를 공존병리로 가진 7-12세 아동 18명이 낯선 성인과의 대화에 참여하였고 어머니들은 모니터로 자녀의 수행을 관찰하였다. 아동과 부모는 실험 전과 후에 아동의 사회기술을 각자 평정하였고, 2명의 평정자들은 아동의 수행이 녹화된 비디오를 독립적으로 평정하였다. 연구 결과, 아동들의 사회공포증 증상이 심각할수록 평정자와 어머니가 평정한 아동의 객관적인 사회기술 수준이 낮게 평가되었다. 어머니들은 아동이 낯선 성인과의 대화에서 실제보다 불안 행동을 더 많이 보일 것이라고 기대하였으나 아동의 수행을 관찰한 뒤에는 불안 행동에 대한 판단이 보다 객관적으로 변화하였다. 본 연구의 의의와 제한점에 대해 논의하였다.

The present study investigated the relationship between objective and subjective ratings of social skills and symptoms of social phobia in children. The sample consisted of 18 children with social phobia or social phobia and other anxiety disorders (7-12 years old) and their mothers. The children participated in a conversation with an unfamiliar adult, and the children's mothers observed their performance. Children and their mothers independently rated their social skills before and after the conversation. Two observers also independently rated the children's social skills. There was a moderate correlation between social phobia symptoms and objective social skills in children. The mothers tended to think that their children exhibited more nervous behaviors than they actually did. There was no significant difference between the mothers' ratings and observers' ratings on nervous behavior in children after the mothers observed their children's performance. The methodological limitations and clinical implications of the present study were discussed.
