본 연구는 노년층 남성과 여성의 의복행동에 대한 신체이미지와 자아존중의 관계를 알아보는 것으로 구체적인 목적은 첫째, 노년층 남성과 여성의 신체이미지와 의복행동과의 관계를 알아보고, 둘째, 자아존중과 의복행동과의 관계를 알아보며, 끝으로 의복행동에 대한 신체이미지와 자아존중과의 관계에 있어서 남녀간의 차이점과 유사점을 규명하는 것이다. 조사대상은 나이 55세 이상의 미국 남부와 거주하는 남성과 여성으로 302부의 설문지를 배부하여 108부를 자료분석에 이용하였다. 신체이미지는 신체 18부분에 대한 만족도로 측정하였고, 자아존중은 Rosenberg의 자아존중 척도를 사용하였으며, 의복행동은 의복태도, 유행의견선도력, 쇼핑에 대한 만족, 상점충성도, 의복비 지출을 포함하였다. 결과로 남녀 노년층에게 있어 신체만족도는 대부분의 의복행동과 상관 관계가 있었으며 유행선도력과 상표충성도에 대한 상관관계가 있어서만 남녀간 유의한 차이가 있었다. 또한 자아존중은 남녀 모두에게 있어 대부분의 의복행동과 상관관계가 있었으며 유행선도력과의 관계에서만 남녀간 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

청소년기로 대변되는 중ㆍ고등학생은 자기가 평가한 자아상이 아닌 타인이 평가한 자아상을 더 신뢰하는 경향이 있다. 이러한 심리적 불안 또는 신체적 불균형을 해결하기 위하여 의복과 같은 구체적인 외형을 통하여 소속감을 형성하고 심리적 안정과 사회적 인정을 얻고자 한다. 이러한 경향은 자칫 의복에 대한 지나친 관심을 낳기도 한다. 의복에 대한 필요 이상의 관심을 억제시키고, 의복을 통일함으로써 건전한 학교생활을 하도록 하기 위해 교복 착용을 하고 있다. (중략)

This study investigated multidimensional body image, self-esteem, clothing benefits sought, and Body Image After Breast Cancer (BIABC) within surgical subgroups among breast cancer survivors. The study applied the questionnaire survey method and the main research was conducted through an online survey. The respondents included 207 breast cancer survivors between the ages of 30 and 59, each of whom received the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ). Self-esteem, clothing benefits sought, examination, and demographic variables were measured using a 5-point Likert scale. The main results of this study are outlined below. For clothing benefit sought, six factors were formulated-pursuit of self-expression/social approval, function/health, compensation, femininity, fashion, and camouflage-and BIABC was defined by the four factors of body stigma/vulnerability, transparency, limitation and cancer concern. While MBSRQ and self-esteem did not show a statistically significant difference between groups differentiated by the surgical methods experienced, those who underwent mastectomies scored slightly lower than members of the other groups. Moreover, the reconstruction after mastectomy group showed the highest mean on self-expression/social approval, compensation, femininity and entire clothing benefits sought, followed by the lumpectomy group and mastectomy group. The lumpectomy group was found to have more positive BIABC than the mastectomy group. In particular, the mastectomy group showed a lower body stigma/vulnerability mean than the other groups. This study is meaningful in that it improves our understanding of the body image of breast cancer survivors and provides basic knowledge for developing products and marketing strategies for breast cancer survivors as consumers.
