Abstract

'Hyao' has been studied by several Korean psychiatrists, mostly in relation to Oedipus complex and psychopathological implications. The present authors propose that 'Hyao' should be understood as being broader and more basic in its meaning and functions which are listed as the follows. 1) Hyao as an attachment, mutual dependence and basic trust between the generations. 2) Hyao as a control mechanism of aggression between the generations. 3) Hyao as a control and resolving mechanism of oedipus complex. 4) Hyao as an organizer of personality development and self-actualization. These functions of Hyao were integrated in a developmental perpective and, the role and responsibilities of parents in promoting and offering their model behavior for positive identification were discussed. 'Hyao' is suggested as being primarily mutual attachment and reverence(respect) between the generations which promote healthy resolutions of issues and conflicts of each developmental stage to be followed.

한국의 전통사상중에 가장 중요하다고 할 수 있는 효(孝)의 개념과 기능을 발달학적 측면에서 고찰하였다. 효(孝)란 부모-자녀의 상호의존적인 관계로서 사랑을 주고 받는 애착의 관계로 볼 수 있으며, 공격성을 적절히 조절하고 oedipus complex를 해결하는 기능이 있고, 자녀는 부모를 존경하는 한편 부모는 자녀에게 긍정적 동일시(positive identification)의 model이 되어 자녀로 하여금 자아를 실현하도록 도와주는, 일생을 통해 인격형성 전반에 걸쳐 영향을 주는 역동의 개념으로 이해할 수 있겠다.
