Abstract

This study investigated how latent groups depend on the longitudinal trajectories observed in fathers' involvement in parenting over a five year period, and the study also determined differences in children's behavioral problems and mother's parenting stress, marital satisfaction, and depression among these groups. By utilizing 1,316 sets of data from 1st to 5th Panel Survey of PSKC beginning in 2008, we examined the patterns of the latent groups and the differences among them. The results showed that, first, a changing pattern of fathers' involvement in parenting is classified into four groups: a low-stable group, a decreasing group. a middle-high changeable group, and a highest changeable group. According to the results of the latent groups, the fathers' involvement in parenting commonly started to decrease at the children's age of 4 years old. Second, problematic behaviors of children appeared more from the fathers in the decreasing group. Third, parenting stress, marital conflict, and depression were more often found in the low-stable group that in the decreasing group. the middle-high changeable group and the highest changeable group (in that order), while marital satisfaction showed a completely opposite pattern. Based on these results, political intervention and the future direction of research for fathers' involvement in parenting are needed in order to increase better behaviors of their children as well as the psychological well-being of their mothers.

본 연구의 목적은 자녀 출생부터 5년까지의 아버지 양육참여의 변화 궤적에 따른 잠재집단을 확인하고, 확인된 잠재집단에 따라 자녀의 문제행동 및 어머니의 양육스트레스, 부부갈등, 결혼만족도, 우울에 차이가 있는지 확인하는 것이다. 한국아동패널 1차년도(2008년)에서 5차년도(2012년)까지 자료의 1,316명 데이터를 분석하였으며, 잠재계층성장분석과 다변량분산분석을 활용하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 2차 함수 모형에 기초한 잠재계층성장분석을 통해 어머니가 지각한 아버지의 양육참여 변화 유형은 '최저수준 무변화형 집단', '중수준 감소형 집단', '중상수준 변동형 집단', '최상수준 변동형 집단'의 네 유형이 확인되었다. 본 연구에서 확인한 잠재집단의 특징은 아버지 양육참여 수준이 가장 낮은 집단의 경우 양육참여 수준의 변화가 잘 나타나지 않으며, 아버지의 양육참여 수준이 높은 집단의 경우에도 자녀가 네 살이 되는 시점부터는 양육참여 수준이 감소한다는 것이다. 둘째, 아버지의 양육참여 수준이 지속적으로 감소하는 '중수준 감소형 집단'이 아버지 참여수준이 제일 높은 '최상수준 변동형 집단'보다 자녀의 외현화 문제행동이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, '최저수준 무변화형 집단'과 '중수준 감소형 집단'이 '중상수준 변동형 집단'과 '최상수준 변동형 집단'보다 어머니의 양육스트레스, 부부갈등, 우울 수준은 높은 반면, 결혼만족도는 '최상수준 변동형 집단', '중상수준 변동형 집단', '중수준 감소형 집단', '최저수준 무변화형 집단' 순으로 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구는 아버지 양육참여의 변화 특성이 자녀뿐 아니라 어머니의 삶에 많은 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사하며, 아버지 양육참여를 촉진하기 위한 사회적 노력과 정책적 개입이 필요함을 시사한다.
