Abstract

This paper tried to determine whether emotional dysregulation would function as a mediating variable when social exclusion affects SNS addiction tendencies. For this purpose, a survey was conducted targeting students enrolled in a university located in the central region. Responses from 298 people were analyzed. The analysis results show that social exclusion completely mediates emotional dysregulation and influences SNS addiction tendencies. Meanwhile, we set the two sub-dimensions of social exclusion as independent variables to determine whether it influences SNS addiction tendency through emotion regulation. It was found that the experience of being ignored influenced the tendency to addict to SNS by partially mediating the experience of emotion regulation, while the experience of rejection was found to affect the tendency to addict to SNS by fully mediating the experience of emotion regulation. These analysis results show that when establishing social exclusion as an influential factor in SNS addiction tendency, it is meaningful not only to set it as an overall factor but also to approach it by dividing it into individual factors.

본 논문은 사회적 배제감이 SNS 중독경향성에 영향을 미칠 때 정서조절곤란이 매개변인으로 기능할 것인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 충청 지역에 소재한 대학교의 학생들을 대상으로 설문 조사를 시행하였다. 298명의 응답이 분석되었다. 분석결과를 보면, 전반적 사회적 배제감은 정서조절곤란을 완전히 매개하여 SNS 중독경향성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 사회적 배제감의 하위 차원을 독립변인으로 설정한 후 정서조절곤란을 매개하여 SNS 중독경향성에 영향을 미치는지 파악해보았다. 무시 경험은 정서조절경험을 부분매개하여 SNS 중독경향성에 영향을 미치는 반면, 거절 경험은 정서조절경험을 완전히 매개하여 SNS 중독경향성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과는 SNS 중독경향성의 영향요인으로 사회적 배제감을 설정할 때 전반적인 요인으로 설정하는 것뿐 아니라 개별적인 요인으로 나누어서 접근하는 것도 의미가 있음을 말해준다.
