초록

본 연구에서는 인간애가 친구관계에 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 그 관계에서 적응유연성과 공감능력이 매개하는지를 구조방정식 모형으로 검증하고자 하였다. 자료는 C 및 B 지역에 재학 중인 초등 5~6학년, 중등 1~2학년을 대상으로 332부를 자기보고식 질문지를 통해 수집되었다. 그 결과는 첫째, 인간애는 적응유연성, 공감능력, 친구관계의 모든 변인에 직접적 영향을 주었다. 그리고 적응유연성은 친구관계에 직접적인 영향을 주었으나, 공감능력은 친구관계에 영향을 주지 않았다. 둘째, 인간애는 적응유연성을 부분 매개하여 친구관계에 영향을 주었으나, 공감능력은 매개하지 않았다. 이 결과는 적응유연성과 공감능력 중에서 적응유연성이 공감능력보다 인간애와 친구관계를 더 잘 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 부가적으로 매개변인의 성차는 공감능력에서 남녀 간의 차이가 있었으나 적응유연성에서는 차이가 없었다. 본 연구의 의의는 청소년의 인간애가 높은 청소년일수록 친구관계에 더욱 긍정적으로 영향을 주며 또한 인간애가 높을수록 적응유연성이 높아 친구관계가 좋아지는 간접효과가 있다는 사실을 밝혔다는데 있다.

The purpose of this study was to examine resilience and empathy on the relation between humanity and friendship of the early adolescents using structural equation modeling. The subjects were total 332 students of the 5th and 6th grade in elementary school and 1st and 2nd grade in junior school. The data were collected by means of the self-report questionnaire. The results of this study were as follows: Firstly, the direct effect of humanity on resilience, empathy, and friendship was found. Resilience also influence friendship directly, but empathy did not affect friendship. Secondly, humanity had influence on friendship partially mediated by resilience, but not mediated by empathy. This result shows that resilience was better mediated between humanity and friendship than empathy. Additionally, sex differences were found on empathy, but the differences were not found on resilience. The results revealed that the adolescents who scored high on humanity were better at friendship and when the higher humanity score was, the higher level of resilience was found, and this had an indirect effect on friendship quality.
