Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the mediating effect of negative problem orientation in the association between intolerance uncertainty and worry. Methods: Participants who were 531 undergraduate students in Chungbuk were administered Intolerance Uncertainty Scale (IUS), Negative Problem Orientation (NPO; SPSI-R), Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ). Results: The results are as follows. Intolerance of uncertainty had statistically significant positive correlation with worry. Negative problem orientation had a partial mediating effect in the association between intolerance uncertainty and worry. Conclusions: This result suggested the importance of intolerance of uncertainty and negative problem orientation in psychological approach to university students who have difficulty in worry.

본 연구에서는 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족과 부정적인 문제해결 지향 및 걱정간의 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 충북에 소재한 4년제 대학교에 재학 중인 531명을 대상으로 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족, 부정적인 문제해결 지향, 걱정에 관한 설문지를 실시하여 자료를 수집하였다. 그 결과, 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족과 부정적인 문제해결 지향과의 상관이 유의하였다. 또한 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족과 걱정 간의 관계에서 부정적인 문제해결 지향이 매개효과를 지니는 것으로 나타났다. 이로 볼 때, 걱정이 높은 사람들을 대상으로 불확실성에 대한 인내력과 부정적인 문제해결 지향에 초점을 두어 개입을 하는 것이 유용할 수 있겠다. 추가적으로 본 연구의 의의와 한계점에 대해서도 논의하였다.
