Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore anger and its expression, psychoticism, addiction, and coping styles of victims, especially aggressive victims of dating violence, and to provide valuable information for prevention of dating violence and rehabilitation of victims. The participants were 477 female college students who had the experience of heterosexual dating relationships, whose ages ranged from 17 to 29 (M=20.59, SD=1.44). The psychological tests used in this research included the following: Straus' Conflict Tactics Scale, Spielberger's State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory, Eysenck Personalty Inventory, and multidimensional Coping Scale. Results revealed that victims only were more likely to receive violence as well as sexual harassments from their dating partners than aggressive victims of dating violence. Aggressive victims of dating violence showed higher level of trait anger and anger-out, and difficulty in control their anger than victim only and women who had not experienced dating violence. In addition, they also revealed symptoms of paychoticism and addiction. And aggressive victims of dating violence showed less active coping and more active forgetting and renunciation than victims only and women who had not experienced dating violence. Victims only of dating violence more like to criticize themselves and pursue religious coping than aggressive victims. Researcher discussed these results with previous studies.

본 연구의 목적은 데이트 폭력 피해여성, 특히 공격적 피해여성의 분노와 분노표현, 정신병적 경향성과 중독성, 그리고 대처방식을 탐구하여 피해여성의 재활을 돕는데 필요한 정보를 제공하는 것이다. 연구의 참여자는 데이트 경험이 있는 477명의 여대생이고, 그들의 연령 분포는 17세에서 29세(M=20.59, SD=1.44) 사이였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 심리검사는 Straus의 갈등책략척도, Spielberger의 상태-특성 분노 표현 척도, Eysenck 성격검사 및 다차원 대처척도이다. 분석 결과, 공격적 피해자보다 순수 피해자가 더 심각한 수준으로 데이트 폭력을 당한 것으로 나타났으며 성폭력을 당한 비율도 높았다. 데이트 폭력 미경험자나 순수 피해자보다 공격적 피해자의 특성분노와 분노표출 수준이 높았으며 분노통제 수준은 낮았다. 공격적 피해자는 정신병적 경향성과 중독성도 강했다. 한편 공격적 피해자는 적극적으로 대처하지 않고 문제를 잊어버리고 체념하려는 경향이 있었으며 타인과 긍정적으로 비교하며 위로를 받으려고 하였다. 반면에 데이트 폭력 순수 피해자는 자기비판을 많이 하고 종교적 추구 성향이 강했다. 연구자는 이런 결과를 선행연구와 비교하며 논의하였다.
