초록

요구-철회 커뮤니케이션은 연속적 언쟁에서 나타나는 주요한 역기능적 의사소통 패턴이다. 본 연구는 이러한 요구-철회 패턴이 연속적 언쟁의 지속성을 어떻게 증가시키는지 이에 영향을 주는 요인을 밝히고자 한다. 본 연구는 거절 민감성이 파트너의 부정 행동 인식과 긍정적인 상관관계를 형성하고 이는 연속적 언쟁 시 나타나는 요구-철회 패턴에 정의 영향을 끼칠 것이며 이러한 일련의 과정이 연속적 언쟁이 해결되었다고 인식할 가능성을 낮출 것으로 가정했다. 직렬 매개모형을 분석한 결과 연속적 언쟁이 해결되었다고 인식하는 것과 상관없이 거절 민감성은 연속적 언쟁이 상호 합의를 수반했다는 인식에 부정적인 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 부적 상관관계는 부분적으로 개인의 거절 민감성이 연인관계에 있는 파트너가 일반적으로 부정 행동을 하는 것으로 인식할 가능성을 높임으로써 연속적 언쟁 시 자기 요구-파트너 철회의 의사소통을 발생시키기 때문인 것으로 나타났다.

Demand/withdraw communication is an important dysfunctional pattern of serial arguing. This study aims at addressing factors that affect the ways in which self-demand/partner-withdraw pattern increases the likelihood of persistence of serial arguing. We posit that sensitivity to rejection is positively related to the degree to which individuals perceive a partners' behavior as generally disconfirming, which is positively related to enactment of self-demand/partner-withdraw during an argumentative episode. This sequence is positively related to perception of arguments as unresolved. In addition, among those who reported their argument was resolved, this sequence is positively related to the likelihood that the argument is resolved without mutual agreement. Serial mediation analysis confirmed that the likelihood of resolution without mutual agreement were positively associated with rejection sensitivity partially because high RS individuals are likely to perceive their partner to be generally disconfirming and to enact self-demand/partner-withdraw communication during the episode. However, this pattern did not apply to perception of the argument as resolved.
