Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among children's perceived parental attachment, parental happiness, and children's autonomy, and to find out in detail the influence of parental attachment and parental happiness on children's autonomy. Frequency analysis and descriptive statistical analysis were performed on data from the 12th year of the Korean Children's Panel (2019), and Pearson's moment correlation coefficient was calculated for correlation analysis between variables. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine the influence of parental attachment and parental happiness on children's autonomy. The research results were as follows. First, parental attachment perceived by children, parental happiness, and children's autonomy were all positively correlated. Second, among the sub-variables of parental attachment, maternal trust, paternal trust, and maternal communication were found to have an influence, and only maternal happiness was found to have an effect on parental happiness. This means that parental attachment acts as a more important variable than parental happiness. Therefore, we need constant attention and effort to support children in a more intimate and stable relationship with their parents so that they can gain life satisfaction through active and proactive choices and decisions.

본 연구의 목적은 아동이 지각한 부모애착, 부모의 행복감, 아동의 자율성 간의 관계가 어떠한지를 살펴보고, 부모애착과 부모의 행복감이 아동의 자율성에 미치는 영향력을 구체적으로 파악하고자 하였다. 한국아동패널 12차년도(2019년) 자료를 대상으로 빈도분석과 기술통계 분석을 하였고, 변인간의 상관분석을 위해 Pearson's의 적률 상관계수를 산출하였다. 아동의 자율성에 관해 부모애착과 부모의 행복감의 영향력을 살펴보기 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 아동이 지각한 부모애착과 부모의 행복감, 아동의 자율성은 모두 정적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 부모 애착의 하위 변인 중에서는 모 신뢰감, 부 신뢰감, 모 의사소통이 영향력을 나타내는 것으로 드러났고, 부모 행복감에서는 모 행복감만이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 부모 애착이 부모 행복감보다 더 중요한 영향력을 미치는 변인으로 작용한다는 것을 의미한다. 이에 우리는 아동이 능동적이고 주도적인 선택과 결정을 통해 삶의 만족감을 얻을 수 있도록 부모와 더욱 친밀하고 안정적인 관계 속에서 아동을 지지해 나갈 수 있도록 끊임없는 관심과 노력이 요구된다.
