몰입의 부정적 기능: 중요타인과의 관계적 맥락을 중심으로 = Negative Function of Flow: The Effect of Relational Context

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the function of flow in relational context. Previous studies on the function of flow suggested that flow has a positive effect on personal growth and happiness in individual context. However, early studies were only focused on individual context and aspect. Therefore the present study investigated whether the function of flow could be changed according to the contexts. To verify this assumption, present study investigated the possibility of negativity of individual flow in relational context. Results of the study1 demonstrated that there was a negative effect of flow in everyday context that approximately 30% of participants(N=1805) were experienced relational conflicts for flow. In detail, 34.8% reported conflicts for other's flow pursuing in close relational context and 23.4% were perceived other's negative feelings for one's flow pursuing in close relational context. Flow conflict also statistically differed in flow domains. Study2 showed results that previous flow studies context was an individual context assuming significant other's conceding on flow and the function of flow changed negative on significant other's disapproval. These results discussed in social compatibility of personal flow.

본 연구는 기존의 몰입연구가 중요타인의 인정이라는 맥락을 전제한 상태에서 이루어져 긍정적으로 편향되었다는 점과 관계의 맥락이 추가되면 개인적 몰입이 부정적 효과를 가질 수 있다는 점을 탐색적으로 밝히는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 확인하기 위해 두 가지 연구가 진행되었다. 연구 1에서는 대규모 조사를 통해 일상적인 맥락을 포괄한 상태에서 개인의 몰입이 중요타인에게 어떠한 영향을 주는지 알아보았다. 연구 결과 일상적인 맥락의 30%수준에서 개인의 몰입은 상대방에게 상대방의 몰입은 개인에게 부정적인 영향이 있음이 나타났고, 몰입영역에 따라 부정적인 영향의 차이가 나타났다. 연구 2에서는 기존의 몰입연구가 중요타인의 인정을 전제로 진행되었다는 점과 인정하지 않는 상황에서는 몰입의 개인적 효과가 어떻게 변화하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 연구결과 기존의 몰입연구 조건(통제조건)은 중요타인이 개인의 몰입에 대해 긍정 혹은 보통의 태도를 취하는 맥락과 유사한 상태였다. 중요타인이 개인의 몰입에 부정적인 태도를 취할 때는 개인의 긍정적인 정서가 감소함이 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 당사자가 몰입이 타인에게 부정되면 타인뿐 아니라 자신에게 몰입이 부정적으로 작용할 수 있다는 것으로 해석되었다. 하지만 이러한 해석은 추후 연구를 통해 보다 구체적으로 밝힐 필요가 있고, 이와 관련된 부분을 논의 하였다.
