초록

본 연구는 중고생의 마음챙김과 행복의 관계에서 감사성향과 자아존중감의 이중 매개효과를 확인하고 행복을 증진시킬 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 조사대상은 충남의 S시에 재학중인 중고등학생을 유의표집하였고, 설문조사를 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 수집한 SPSS PC+ Win. ver. 25.0과 SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2를 활용하여 분석하였다. 자료는 빈도분석, 신뢰도분석, 상관관계분석, 이중 매개효과분석 기법을 적용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 첫째 마음챙김, 감사성향, 자아존중감 및 행복 간에는 유의미한 정적 상관관계가 있었다. 특히 감사성향과 자아존중감 간에는 가장 높은 상관관계가 있었다. 둘째, 감사성향과 자아존중감은 중고등학생의 마음챙김과 행복의 관계에서 이중 매개효과가 있었다. 이러한 결과는 중고등학생을 대상으로 마음챙김, 감사성향 및 자아존중감 등 심리적 변인을 활용하여 행복 증진을 위한 새로운 실천 모델로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study aims to confirm the dual mediating effect of gratitude and self-esteem in the relationship between mindfulness and happiness in middle and high school students and to provide basic data that can improve happiness. The study subjects were middle and high school students living in S City in South Chungcheong Province, and data were collected through a survey. For collected data analysis, SPSS PC+ Win. ver. 25.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2 were used. Data were analyzed by applying frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and double mediation effect analysis techniques. As a result of the study, first, there was a significant positive correlation between mindfulness, gratitude, self-esteem, and happiness. In particular, there was the highest correlation between gratitude and self-esteem. Second, gratitude and self-esteem had a double mediating effect in the relationship between mindfulness and happiness in middle and high school students. These results can be used as a new practice model to improve happiness by utilizing psychological variables such as mindfulness, gratitude, and self-esteem for middle and high school students.
