Abstract

This study was done to explore deeply the essence and meaning of gratitude experience of mothers who cares child with schizophrenia. This study was analysed through the use of the phenomenological method of Giorgi. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and field records with five motheres who cares child with schizophrenia. Data analysis revealed 18 sub-components, 5 components: 'I'm like fallen seed on barren soil without gratitude', 'gratitude coming into bud like sprout,' 'gratitude grown up into a tree through tolerance', 'gratitude bearing fruit of self-sufficiency and desire', and 'gratitude getting much richer with giving. The results from the study contribute to promoting understanding of the gratitude experience of mothers who cares child with schizophrenia and will be helpful for development of positive family nursing intervention.

본 연구의 목적은 조현병 자녀를 돌보는 어머니들의 감사경험의 본질을 탐색하고자 하였다. 서울시 일개 정신건강복지센터에 등록된 회원 중 조현병 진단 후 만 5년이 경과된 회원의 어머니 5명을 대상으로 심층면담을 하고, Giorgi(1997)의 현상학적 연구방법으로 분석하였다. 결과 조현병 자녀 어머니의 감사경험은 18개의 하위구성요소와 감사할 것 없이 척박한 땅에 떨어진 씨앗 같은 나, 새싹처럼 움트기 시작하는 감사, 포용을 통해 나무로 자란 감사, 자족과 바람의 열매를 맺는 감사, 베풂으로 인해 더 풍성해진 감사의 5가지 구성요소가 도출되고, 역동적 순환체계로 진행되어감을 확인하였다. 이로서 조현병 자녀 어머니의 감사경험은 원망, 수용, 용서, 소망, 나눔의 순방향으로 진행되기 위해서 정신건강전문가들의 적극적인 상담과 조현병 자녀 어머니들의 개별 또는 집단교육 및 중재프로그램 개발 연구가 더욱 확대되어야 한다.
