본 연구는 MMORPG 이용동기가 MMORPG의 사회적 이용을 매개로 현실의 대인관계 유능성에 끼치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 이를 위해 MMORPG 커뮤니티를 대상으로 총 496부의 설문을 회수하였다. 분석 결과, MMORPG 이용동기와 대인관계 유능성 간 관계에서 MMORPG의 사회적 이용은 완전매개하였다. 이용 동기 중 사회적 관계성 이용 동기는 MMORPG의 사회적 이용을 정적으로 완전매개하여 대인관계 유능성에 영향을 주었다. 몰입/도피 이용 동기의 경우 대인관계 유능성에 직접적으로 부정적인 영향을 주었으나, MMORPG의 사회적 이용을 부분 매개하여 부정적인 영향이 다소 감소하였음을 알 수 있었다.
