Abstract

The purpose of this study was to discover the relevance between the psychological well-being of highschool students and their emotional intelligence, which functioned as a representative adjustment index in their daily life, as well as their interior-exterior control. To attain this purpose, this study targets as research subjects 402 students who were freshman at two different high schools of Jeju City. The results were as follows. First, female students had a higher level of emotional intelligence than male students had. Second, those with greater feeling of psychological well-being had higher emotional intelligence and interior-exterior control. Third, the psychological well-being had a positive effect on emotional intelligence and interior-exterior control. According to this survey, we need to recognize that there is a close relationship between psychological well-being and emotional intelligence. We also need to strengthen the ability of students to better understand other people through the affective rather than the subject-centered cognitive aspect of counseling education and activities. There is also a need to strengthen their social skills that gives them the ability to deal with and act wisely in human relationship. This can be achieved through counseling education and programs that can promote better understanding of their psychological well-being as well as influencing interior-exterior control.

이 연구의 목적은 고등학생의 심리적 안녕감이 일상생활을 함에 있어서 대표적인 적응 지표로서 기능하는 정서지능과 어떠한 관련성이 있는지 알아보고, 또한 심리적 안녕감이 고등학생들의 내외통제성에는 어떠한 관련성이 있는지 살펴보는데 목적이 있다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 고등학교 학생 402명을 대상으로 질문지를 이용하여 실시하였다. 응답결과에 대하여 첫째, 정서지능은 남학생보다 여학생이 높다. 둘째, 심리적 안녕감이 높을수록 정서지능과 내외통제성도 높다. 셋째, 심리적 안녕감이 정서지능과 내외통제성에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과로 볼 때, 심리적 안녕감은 정서지능과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 인식하고 정의적인 측면의 상담교육 및 활동을 통하여 다른 사람을 이해하는 능력과 인간관계에서 현명하게 대처하고 행동하는 능력인 사회성을 강화시킬 필요가 있으며, 또한, 심리적 안녕감을 이해하고 내외통제성과의 관련성을 통하여 행복한 삶을 살아가는데 도움을 줄 수 있는 프로그램이 개발되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
