Abstract

This study examined the mediating effect of parenting stress on the influence of self-differentiation of mothers in multicultural families on their learned helplessness. The study determined the correlation between the following variables: self-differentiation, learned helplessness, and the parenting stress of mothers in multicultural families. The study was conducted on mothers who are raising children in multicultural families and 193 cases of supplementary data were finally analyzed. The data derived from the survey was analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0 programs. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the self-differentiation of mothers in multicultural families showed a negative effect on parenting stress and the mothers' learned helplessness, while parenting stress had a positive effect on the mothers' learned helplessness. Parenting stress was found to have a mediating effect on the relationship between the self-differentiation and the learned helplessness of mothers in multicultural families. This study suggests that the mothers of multicultural families may decrease parenting stresses and learned helplessness by increasing the level of self-differentiation in the context of cultural differences and adapting to new societies.

본 연구에서는 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화가 학습된 무기력에 미치는 영향에서 양육 스트레스의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 변인들 간의 상관관계를 조사하고, 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화, 학습된 무기력, 양육스트레스 간의 구조적 관계를 확인하기 위해 모형검증을 실시하였다. 연구는 다문화 가정에서 자녀를 양육하는 어머니를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 최종 193부가 자료 분석에 사용되었다. 자료 분석은 SPSS 23.0과 AMOS 23.0 프로그램을 활용하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화는 양육 스트레스와 학습된 무기력에 부(-)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 양육 스트레스는 학습된 무기력에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화와 학습된 무기력의 관계에서 양육 스트레스는 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 다문화 가정의 어머니는 문화적 차이와 새로운 사회에 적응해야 하는 환경 속에서 자아분화 수준을 높이는 것이 양육 스트레스와 학습된 무기력을 감소시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.
