초록

본 연구는 중학생의 또래괴롭힘 피해에 초점을 맞추어 개인수준에서 그 위험요인(사회적 위축)과 발달적 결과(우울)를 확인하고, 학급수준의 차별 효과를 살펴보기 위해 다층경로분석을 실시하였다. 구체적으로, 개인수준에서 중학생의 사회적 위축과 우울간의 관계에서 또래괴롭힘 피해의 매개효과를 확인하고, 나아가 또래괴롭힘 피해경험에 개인수준의 사회적 위축과 학급수준의 차별 간 층간 상호작용 효과가 발생하는지 확인하였다. 이를 위해 7개 중학교, 86학급에서 수집된 1,116명의 자기보고식 설문자료를 분석에 사용하였다. 그 결과, 개인수준에서 사회적 위축, 또래괴롭힘 피해, 우울 간의 부분매개효과가 유의하게 나타났고, 학급수준에서 차별은 또래괴롭힘 피해를 정적으로 예측하였다. 또한 사회적 위축과 차별의 층간 상호 작용 효과가 유의하게 나타나, 사회적으로 위축된 학생이 높은 수준의 차별이 발생하는 학급에 속할수록 또래괴롭힘 피해를 더 많이 경험한다는 것을 밝혔다. 이러한 결과는 개인수준의 취약성이 항상 또래괴롭힘 피해를 예측하는 것이 아니고, 맥락과 상호작용한다는 것을 보여주며, 결과적으로 또래괴롭힘 피해를 이해하기 위해 개인특성 뿐 아니라 학급의 맥락적 특성을 함께 고려해야 함을 강조한다. 마지막으로 연구 결과를 중심으로 효과적 개입전략에 대해 논의하였다.

This study examined how social withdrawal as an individual factor and discrimination as a contextual factor contributed to depression caused by peer victimization among middle school students. Self-reported data of 1,611 students from 86 classrooms in 7 middle schools was analyzed, using multilevel path analysis. The results indicate that peer victimization had a significant partial mediating effect on the relation between social withdrawal and depression at the individual level. Social withdrawal had a direct positive effect on depression as well as an indirect positive effect on depression via high levels of peer victimization. Discrimination also positively predicted peer victimization at the classroom level. Moreover, classroom-level discrimination moderated the individual-level relations between social withdrawal and peer victimization. The relation between social withdrawal and peer victimization was much stronger as the levels of discrimination in the classroom were higher. These findings shed light on the importance of considering both individual and contextual factors when intervening to prevent peer victimization.
