초록

한국 사회는 발달장애인이 지속적으로 증가하는 경향이 있으므로 발달장애아동을 양육하는 부모들의 삶에 대한 사회적 관심이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구는 발달장애아동 부모의 양육스트레스가 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고, 이 과정에서 정보활용의 조절효과를 검증하였다. 이를 위해 충 남북 지역에서 발달장애아동을 양육하는 부모 194명을 조사대상자로 하였다. 본 연구의 자료분석을 위하여 PASW Statistics 18.0을 이용하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 조사대상자들의 양육스트레스는 보통수준보다 높은 것으로 나타났고, 정보활용은 보통수준보다 조금 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 삶의 질은 보통수준보다 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 삶의 질 하위요인 중에서 이웃관계와 정서상태영역이 상대적으로 더 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 양육스트레스, 장애정도, 정보활용, 거주지역, 장애유형 등으로 나타났다. 셋째, 정보활용은 양육스트레스와 삶의 질 관계에서 조절효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실증적인 분석결과에 기초하여 발달장애아동 부모의 삶의 질을 제고할 수 있는 구체적이고 통합적인 실천전략을 제시했다는데 본 연구의 의의가 있다.

Given that the number of people with developmental disabilities is continuously increasing in Korea, we need to pay attention to the lives of parents who rear the children with developmental disabilities. Accordingly, this study examined the effects of parenting stress on the quality of life in parents of children with developmental disabilities, and moderating effects of information application in the process. This study conducted a survey to 194 parents who rear such children in Chungnam and Chungbuk provinces. This study utilized PASW Statistics 18.0 for analysis, and the study results are as follows. First, it was found that parenting stress was more than average level, and information application was somewhat lower than average level. Quality of life was found to be lower than average level, and the level of relationship with neighborhood and emotional condition was relatively lower than other sub-factors. Second, influential factors of life quality were parenting stress, disability degree, information application, residential area, and disability type. Third, information application was found to have moderating effects on the relationship between parenting stress and quality of life. Based on such empirical analysis results, this study suggested concrete and comprehensive working strategies to improve quality of life in parents of children with developmental disabilities.
