Abstract

This study was a qualitative study performed to understand the nature and structure of the suicide attempt process experienced by maladjustment soldiers. The survey participants targeted 10 soldiers who entered 'Camp Green' due to lack of duty by the 00 Corps of ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ Prefecture. Data were collected by individual in-depth interviews from October 2016 to September 2017 and analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological method. The suicide attempt process by maladjusted soldiers was delineated into four categories such as 'A prison without bars', 'Walk on eggshells', 'A pretentious series of life', and 'A life of desperation'; 9 theme clusters; and 25 themes. As a result, maladjusted soldiers had a generally negative experience related to military culture. Soldiers who fail to adapt to military culture will show extreme behavior unless they are able to overcome their depression. Unless specific understanding of the suicide attempt process is attained, the suicide prevention policies of mission-maladjusted soldiers will be ineffective. The results of this study hope to serve as the basis for a suicide prevention and nursing intervention program.

본 연구는 복무 부적응 병사들이 경험하고 있는 자살시도 과정에 대한 본질과 구조를 이해하기 위한 질적 연구이다. 연구 참여자는 K도 00군단의 복무 부적응으로 그린캠프에 입소한 병사 10명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료 수집은 2016년 10월에서 2017년 9월까지 12개월간 진행하였다. 개별 심층 면담 결과를 Colaizzi(1978)의 현상학적 연구 방법을 적용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과는 '창살 없는 감옥', '모든 것이 눈치', '가식적인 삶의 연속', '자포자기의 삶'의 4개의 범주, 9개 주제모음과 25개 주제로 도출되었다. 연구결과로 복무 부적응 병사들은 군 문화에 대해 전반적으로 부정적인 경험을 하고 있었다. 군 문화에 적응하지 못한 신세대 병사들이 마지막 단계인, 자포자기의 순간을 이겨내지 못하면 극단적인 행동을 하게 된다. 성격 유형별로 자살요인에 차이가 있었고, 자살 시도 이전 내외부적 도움이 필요한 시점이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 자살 전까지 자살 시도 과정에 대한 구체적인 이해가 선행되지 않으면 복무 부적응 병사들의 자살 예방 정책들은 큰 효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 정신 간호 중재 프로그램과 자살 예방 사업의 기초자료로 활용되기 원한다.
