Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between children's Temperamental Effortful Control and adolescents' Academic failure tolerance(AFT). Specifically, Grit effect as a mediator between Effortful Control and AFT was also determined. A total of 108 children participated as they were at age 8, and as they turned 14 years old. Children Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ) was measured to investigate children's Effortful Control, and Grit scale and AFT scale were measured to investigate adolescents' Grit and their response to failure. The results of this study showed that children's Effortful Control was significantly related to AFT. And adolescents' Grit was also positively related to adolescents' AFT. In addition, Effortful Control was related to Grit. Finally, Grit partly mediated the relationship between Effortful Control and AFT.

본 연구의 목적은 아동기의 통제 기질이 청소년기의 학업적 실패내성에 미치는 영향에서 그릿의 매개효과를 검증하는 것이었다. 이를 위하여 서울과 경기 지역의 참여자 108명을 대상으로 만 8세 때에는 기질을 측정하고, 만 14세 때에는 그릿과 학업적 실패내성을 측정하였다. 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같았다. 첫째, 아동의 통제 기질은 청소년기의 학업적 실패내성에 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 통제를 잘 하는 아동일수록 실패내성이 높은 경향이 있었다. 둘째, 그릿은 학업적 실패내성에 의미 있는 영향을 미쳤다. 그릿이 높을수록 실패 상황을 극복하게 하는 열정과 끈기가 높아 실패상황에 대해 건설적인 자세로 대응하는 경향이 있었다. 마지막으로 아동기의 통제 기질이 청소년기 학업적 실패내성에 미치는 영향에서 그릿의 매개효과가 유의미하였다. 즉, 그릿은 통제 기질의 영향력을 증가시켜 학업적 실패내성에 정적인 영향을 미치는 역할을 하였다.
