Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze the effects of parents' self-esteem on preschool aged children's emotional responses and attention, mediated by their self-esteem, utilizing data from the 7th Panel Study of Korean Children. This study analyzed the main survey of the 7th year survey of the Panel Study on Korean Children and 1383 families from which both parents participated in the survey (1383 couples of parents and 1383 children). The results revealed that mother's self-esteem had a direct effect on children's self-esteem and that children's self-esteem had direct effects on their emotional responses and attention. Mother's self-esteem also had direct effects on children's emotional responses and attention, as well as indirect effects on their emotional responsiveness and attention, and these effects were mediated by parents' self-esteem. Overall, the study revealed the impact of parents' self-esteem on children's emotional responsiveness and attention and provided basic data for the development of an education program for preschool aged children and parents. Thus, it is necessary to develop educational programs to improve preschool aged children's self-esteem and to develop a program for the formation and maintenance of mother's positive self-esteem.

본 연구는 한국아동패널 7차 자료를 활용하여 부모의 자아존중감이 학령전기 아동의 자아존중감을 매개로 정서적 반응과 주의집중에 미치는 효과를 분석하고자 실시되었다. 본 연구에서는 한국아동패널 7차 년도 조사의 본조사와 어머니, 아버지 설문조사에 모두 참여한 가족 1383 가구(부모 1383쌍과 아동 1383명)을 대상으로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 어머니의 자아존중감은 아동의 자아존중감에 직접 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 아동의 자아존중감은 아동의 정서적 반응과 주의집중에 직접효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 어머니의 자아존중감은 아동의 정서적 반응과 주의집중에 직접효과가 있으며, 아동의 자아존중감을 매개로 아동의 정서적 반응과 주의집중에 간접효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 부모의 자아존중감이 아동의 정서적 반응성과 주의집중에 미치는 영향을 밝히고, 학령전기 아동과 부모 교육 프로그램 개발의 기초자료를 제공하였다는데 의의가 있다. 따라서 학령전기 아동의 자아존중감 강화를 위한 교육과 어머니의 긍정적인 자아존중감 형성과 유지를 위한 프로그램을 개발하고 이를 보급하는 것이 필요하다.
