Abstract

This study investigated the longitudinal transition of adolescents' psychological character profiles, which includes self-esteem, acculturative stress, depression, and social withdrawal, and the predictive effects of parental efficacy, families' support, and friends' support in multicultural families. The sample consisted of 1,188 adolescents in elementary school, who were re-examined in three years, when they were in middle school from the part of waves 2 and 6 of the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study. A latent profile analysis identified three distinct profiles of psychological character among adolescents in elementary school and middle school: stable, social withdrawal, and unstable. As compared to elementary school, adolescents' psychological characteristics stayed stable and played critical roles on the latent classes. Parental efficacy, and supports from family and friends played critical roles on the latent classes. Specifically, as adolescents perceived full of supports from friends, they were more likely to make transitions to the stable group. Implications for intervention in multicultural families are discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 다문화 가정 청소년의 심리적 특성인 자아존중감, 문화적응스트레스, 우울, 사회적 위축을 활용하여 초등학교와 중학교 시기의 잠재프로파일 및 전이 과정을 탐색하고, 전이 과정에 영향을 미치는 변인을 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 다문화청소년패널조사의 2차년도(2012년)와 6차년도(2016년) 자료의 1,188명을 분석 대상으로 하였으며, 잠재프로파일분석과 다항로지스틱 회귀분석을 사용하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 초등학교 시기(2차년도 자료)와 중학교 시기(6차년도 자료)의 잠재프로파일분석 결과, 두 시점 모두 '안정형 집단', '사회적 위축형 집단', '불안정형 집단'의 세 개의 잠재집단이 확인되었다. 둘째, 잠재집단의 전이 과정을 확인한 결과, 심리적 특성의 안정적인 양상도 나타나지 만, 긍정적 변화 및 부정적 변화 또한 나타나는 것이 확인되었다. 셋째, 방임적 양육태도, 부모효능감, 가족의지지, 친구의지지가 잠재집단 구분에 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었으며, 특히 친구의지지 수준이 높을수록 불안정형 집단에 계속 머무르기보다는 안정형 집단으로 전이될 확률이 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구결과는 적절한 지원이 이루어질 경우 다문화 가정 청소년이 더 안정적인 심리적 특성을 갖는 방향으로 변화할 수 있음을 시사한다.
