The purpose of this study was to construct and test a structural equation model for college student's gambling behavior. A structured questionnaire was completed by 246 college students to analyze the relationships between perspective factors(irrational gambling belief), psychological factors(depression, anxiety), social factors(parental monitoring, parental support, friend support), self-control and gambling behavior. The moderating effects of gender, friends and family's gambling behaviors were examined. The data were analyzed using SPSS 21,0 and AMOS 20.0 programs. Self-control and psychological factors directly affected the college student's gambling behavior, while perspective factors and social factors affected it indirectly. The model fit indices of the modified model were suitable for the recommended levels. The overall study findings suggest the need to develop a gambling prevention program for college students that reinforces self-control, parental monitoring and support, and friend support while reducing irrational gambling belief, depression, and anxiety. An approach that considers gender and a development of a group counseling program for family or friends are also required.

본 연구의 목적은 알코올 문제의 현황을 파악하고 효과적인 음주교육 방안을 모색하기 위한 것이다. 사회문화적 행위로서의 음주행동의 특징을 파악하고 음주로 인한 위해가 우리에게 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위한 것이다. 음주행동은 한 사람이 속한 사회의 문화와 관습이 허용하는 범위에 따라 그 사회가 공유하는 음주에 대한 태도나 가치의 영향을 받아 학습을 통해 습득하게 된다. 음주는 사망률, 이환율, 유산율, 범죄율 등에 막대한 영향을 끼치고 있으며 이로 인한 사회적 비용과 생명손실은 엄청난 것이다. 매스미디어를 통한 음주교육은 다른법적 제재와 병행될 때 효과적이다. 음주연령이나 세금부과 등을 통해 음주행위를 통제하는 것이 가능하다. 음주교육의 주기능은 법령과 처벌에 대한 두려움(perceived fear)를 높이는 것이다. 음주행위에 관용적인 사회 분위기를 변화시키는 것이 법령이나 처벌보다 더 효과적이다. 과도한 음주행위에 대한 비판적인 사회적 분위기와 같은 비공식적인 사회적인 제재가 음주문제의 예방에 더욱 중요하다. 청소년의 음주행위는 부모와 동료집단과의 관계에 의해 크게 영향을 받기 때문에 부모와 동료집단의 참여하에 객관적인 태도를 통해 자율적인 결정을 할 수 있도록 유도해야 한다. 음주교육에 대해 지식과 경험을 갖춘 교사가 교육을 실시하여야 하며 소그룹 활동을 통해 음주문제에 대한 이해와 바람직한 태도를 습득하게 하고 동료집단의 압력을 거부할 수 있는 능력을 키우는 것이 필요하다. 교사는 편견이 없는 객관적인 태도를 갖추어야 하고 최종적 결정은 지식에 근거하여 청소년이 하도록 하여야 한다. 음주는 가정불화, 좌절감, 실업, 이혼 둥의 부정적 감정과 연관되어 있으며 깊은 인간관계를 통한 상담이 효과적이다. 단주친목과 같은 자발적인 민간단체는 알코올 문제를 가진 사람들이 서로 모여 친목하는 가운데 도움과 치료를 받을 수 있다는 점에서 매우 효과적이다. 이러한 단체의 활용이 더욱 확대되어야 한다. 병원에서의 음주교육은 노조의 참여하에 전문적인 의료인들에 의해 이루어져야 한다. 이전에 알코올중독에서 회복된 사람을 동료교육가(peer educator)로 활용하는 것도 효율적인 교육방법중의 하나이다. 의과대학의 교과과정에 음주교육에 대한 내용을 더욱 확대하여야 한다. 음주교육은 음주라는 행위의 저변에 깔린 문화적 심리적 요인에 대한 깊은 이해를 토대로 계획되고 실시되어야 한다. 음주교육은 지역사회 전체의 참여를 통해 부모, 학생, 정부, 민간단체, 매스미디어의 공동참여를 통한 다각적인 접근이 요구된다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between rejection sensitivity and reactive aggression among college students, as well as to determine the mediating effects of self-concept clarity and hostile attribution bias on the relationship between rejection sensitivity and reactive aggression. A self-report questionnaire was conducted online for the purpose of gathering data from university students aged 18 years and older. A total of 250 participants were included in the analysis. SPSS 27.0 was used for data analysis to check the basic statistics of the variables, frequency analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation analysis. In addition, the model fit was checked using Amos 21.0, and the bootstrapping method verified the significance of the indirect effect. The results of this study are as follows. The results of this study are as follows. First, rejection sensitivity positively affects reactive aggression through self-concept clarity. Second, rejection sensitivity increases the hostile attribution bias, leading to an increase in reactive aggression. Third, rejection sensitivity positively influences reactive aggression in an indirect way by sequentially affecting self-concept clarity and hostile attribution bias. These findings have implications as they identify psychological factors that affect reactive aggression in college students. This suggests the importance of utilizing psychological interventions to address reactive aggression associated with social problems, such as crime, and provides a foundation for both treatment and prevention. Finally, implications for further research and limitations of this study are suggested.
