결혼생활문제와 부부싸움결과의 관계: 역기능적 부부싸움방식의 매개 및 부드러운 첫마디의 완충 효과 = Marital Problem and Argument Outcome: The Mediating Effect of Dysfunctional Marital Argument and the Buffering Effect of Soft Start-up

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study was designed to test the hypothesis that married women``s marital problem may influence marital argument outcome, namely negative change in emotions for their spouse, directly and indirectly through the mediation of dysfunctional marital argument and to investigate the buffering effects of soft start-up on the marital problem-dysfunctional marital argument relationship and the marital problem-argument outcome relationship. Self-report data were collected from 166 married women who were living in Busan, Korea. The results of regression analyses and a Sobel test showed that marital problem had positively direct and indirect effects on argument outcome, partially mediated by dysfunctional marital argument. Also, soft start-up buffered the relationship between marital problem and argument outcome. Specifically, the relationship between marital problem and argument outcome was lower at a higher level of soft start-up. But soft start-up did not buffer the relationship between marital problem and dysfunctional marital argument. These findings were discussed in terms of the importance of soft start-up in the prevention of negative argument outcome.
