Abstract

The purpose of this research was to examine the discrimination between grit and passion; and to compare the relationship between grit and passion between eastern and western culture. The participants were 208 Korean and 251 American undergraduates. Multiple-group factor analysis confirmed the model of four (consistency of interest, perseverance of efforts, harmonious passion, and obsessive passion) factors by configural invariance and partial measurement invariance. Also we found positive correlation between consistency of interest and harmonious passion as well as negative correlation between consistency of interest and obsessive passion in the American sample. However, the correlation between grit(consistency of interest, perseverance of efforts) and passion(harmonious passion, obsessive passion) was not significant in the Korean sample. The results suggest that grit is not accompanied by passion among Korean university students. Findings empirically highlight the distinctiveness of grit and passion and the possibility of cultural differences in grit and passion, which were usually discussed western cultures.

본 연구는 그릿과 열정 구인이 변별되는지를 검증하고 동, 서양 문화 간 두 구인의 관계성에 차이가 존재하는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국 대학생 208명과 미국 대학생 251명을 대상으로 다집단 요인분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 형태동일성과 부분측정단위동일성이 성립하여 한국과 미국 모두에서 그릿의 두 요인인 흥미의 지속성 및 노력의 꾸준함과 열정의 두 유형인 조화열정 및 강박열정 각각이 서로 잘 구별되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 단, 미국 대학생 집단에서는 흥미의 지속성이 적응적인 조화열정과는 정적인 상관을, 부적응적인 강박열정과는 부적인 상관을 보인 반면에, 한국 대학생 집단에서는 노력의 꾸준함 뿐만 아니라 흥미의 지속성도 조화 및 강박열정 모두와 상관이 유의미하지 않았다. 이는 그릿의 개념적 정의와는 달리 한국의 대학생 집단에서는 그릿이 열정과 관련이 높지 않음을 시사한다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 그동안 개념적으로 유사함에도 불구하고 이론적으로만 설명되어 왔던 그릿과 열정 간의 변별성을 경험적으로 밝히고, 서구에서 주로 논의되어 온 그릿과 열정이 문화적 토양에 따라 가질 수 있는 차이를 확인하였다.
