본 연구의 목적은 여대생을 대상으로 마음챙김이 대학생 생활스트레스에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였으며, 두 변수간의 관계에서 정적정서 및 부적정서가 조절효과를 가지는 지 검증하고자 하였다. 이 연구를 위해 K여자대학교 여대생(243명)을 대상으로 마음챙김 주의자각, 정적정서와 부적정서, 대학생 생활스트레스에 대해 설문조사를 실시하고 자료를 수집하였다. 자료분석 결과는 다음과 같았다. 첫째, 여대생의 마음챙김은 대학생 생활스트레스에 영향을 미친 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 여대생의 마음챙김과 스트레스의 관계에서 정적정서는 조절효과를 보여주지 않았다. 셋째, 여대생의 마음챙김과 스트레스의 관계에서 부적정서는 조절효과를 보여주었다. 결론적으로 여대생의 마음챙김을 통한 주의 자각은 대인관계 스트레스, 당면과제 스트레스를 낮추는 데 도움이 되었으며, 부적정서를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 논의에는 본 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구방향을 논의하였다.
