초록

중년 여성은 가정과 사회에서 중추적인 역할을 수행하는 동시에 신체, 심리, 사회적으로 많은 변화와 문제를 안고 있다. 성역할정체감은 개인의 적응에 영향을 미치므로, 중년기 여성을 대상으로 성역할정체감의 유형과 유형별 특성을 확인하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구는 Q방법론을 적용하여 중년기 여성의 성역할정체감에 대한 인식 유형을 분석하였다. 연구대상은 중년 여성 40명을 P표본으로 하여 40개의 Q표본을 9점 척도 상에 강제 분포하도록 하였다. 수집된 자료는 QUANL에 의한 주인자분석법으로 처리되었다. 중년기 여성의 성역할정체감 유형은 네 가지로 확인되었다. '온정 감성형'은 온순, 세심하고 동정심이 있으며 감정이 풍부하며 낭만적인 것을 좋아한다. '온정 소신형'은 이해심과 동정심, 참을성이 있으며 의리와 소신을 가지고 있다. '파워 소신형'은 이기심과 의리가 있고 자기주장을 하며 성격이 강하나 소신을 가지고 일을 처리한다. '감성 주도형'은 예쁜 물건을 좋아하고 부드럽고 상냥한 측면과 함께 의리를 가지고 추진력을 가지는 특성이 있다. 중년기 여성의 성역할정체감에 대한 인식의 확인을 통해 생애주기의 발달에 따라 변화된 성역할정체감을 이해할 수 있었다.

This study aims to contribute to our knowledge on gender role identity of middle-aged women within the Korean context. This research adapting Q methodology created a sampling distribution of P with 40 middle-aged women between 40-60 years old. We put each of 40 Q samples to become a forced distribution into 9 scales. And then we conducted a secondary analysis of the results from the principal component factor analysis by the PC QUANL program. Gender role identities of middle aged women were classified as four types: "affectionate-sensitive type", "affectionate-confident type", "assertive-confident type", and "sensitive-dominant type". Most of the middle-aged women in Korea tend to keep their original gender role identities. Some of women, however, experience the gender role identity change over time that their traits of traditional caring become more prominent than their affectionate character.
