초록

애착불안이 우울을 완전하게 설명할 수 없다는 Hazan과 Shaver의 주장을 근거로 애착불안과 우울과의 관계를 매개하는 요인을 탐색하는 국내외연구들이 활발히 진행되어 왔지만 자기몰입의 매개효과를 살펴본 연구는 거의 없었다. 그러므로 본 연구는 대학생들의 성인 애착불안과 우울의 관계에서 자기몰입의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 대학교 재학생 283명을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 본 연구에서는 연구 변인들 사이의 관계를 검증하기 위하여 구조방정식을 사용하였고 애착불안과 우울의 관계에서 자기몰입의 매개효과를 검증한 결과, 자기몰입은 부분매개효과를 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 애착불안이 지각단계에까지 영향을 미치며 자기몰입이라는 비-적응적인 지각과정을 통해 우울이 심화될 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구결과는 과도기에 해당하는 대학생의 정신건강과 밀접한 관련이 있는 위험요인과 인지적인 매개요인에 대한 기초자료를 제공하는데 그 의의가 있다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 대학생을 대상으로 하여 애착불안과 우울의 관계에서의 여러 가지 위험요인과 보호요인과의 상관관계와 매개효과를 살펴보는 후속연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

According to the notion that anxious attachment may not explain depression fully, there has been abundant studies investigating the mediating factors affecting the relationship between anxious attachment and depression. However, there was no previous study examining the mediating effect of self-absorption. Therefore, the present study examined the mediating effect of self-absorption on the relationships between adult anxious attachment and depression for 283 college students. To examine relationships among variables, structural equation modeling analysis was utilized. and the present study found a partial mediation effect of self-absorption in the relationship between anxious attachment and depression. This result suggests that anxious attachment influences attentional process and as a result, the maladoptive self-focused attention can precipitate depression. Current findings can contribute to the field by providing knowledge about risk factors and cognitive mediators affecting mental health of college students who are in "transitional period" in their life. Future studies can investigate interactions among risk, protective, and mediating factors affecting the relationship between anxious attachment and depression among college students.
