This study attempted to understand how the communication efficiency of middle-aged couples affects marriage satisfaction and to verify the mediating effect of self-esteem. To this end, the results of analyzing the influence relationship between the variables by collecting questionnaire data on the variables of 421 middle-aged couples living in D city are as follows. First, it was confirmed that the communication efficiency, self-esteem, and marriage satisfaction of middle-aged couples had a positive relationship. Second, the partial mediating effect of self-esteem in the relationship between marriage satisfaction was verified by the communication efficiency of middle-aged couples. Based on these research results, an action plan to improve marriage satisfaction in the middle-aged part was suggested.

본 연구는 중년기 부부의 의사소통 효율성이 결혼만족도와의 관계는 어떠한지 파악하고 자아존중감의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 D시에 거주하는 중년기 부부 421명을 대상으로 변인에 관한 설문자료를 수집해 변인 간 영향 관계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중년기 부부의 의사소통 효율성, 자아존중감, 결혼만족도는 정적 관계를 가지고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 중년기 부부의 의사소통 효율성이 결혼만족도 간 관계에서 자아존중감의 부분 매개 효과를 검증하였다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 중년기 부분의 결혼만족도를 증진할 수 있는 실천 방안을 제시하였다.
