Abstract

This study aims to confirm whether successful aging and hope play a dual mediating role in the relationship between social isolation and self-integrity among learners participating in literacy education, and to provide basic data to enhanceself-integrity. The subjects were conveniently sampled from learners participating in general literacy education and literacy education courses recognized for academic achievement in the Chungnam province, and the data were collected through surveys. The data were analyzed using SPSS PC+ Win. ver. 25.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2. The statistical techniques used were descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and dual mediation effect analysis. The results of the study were as follows: First, there were significant correlations between social isolation, successful aging, hope, and self-integrity, with the highest correlation coefficient between hope and ego integrity. Second, successful aging and hope serially mediated the relationship between social isolation and self-integrity among learners participating in literacy education. The results of this study suggest that it can be used as a new model to enhance self-integrity among learners participating in literacy education.

문해교육에 참여하는 학습자를 대상으로 성공적 노화와 희망이 사회적 고립감과 자아통합감의 관계에서 이중 매개역할을 하는지를 확인하고 자아통합감을 증진시킬 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하는데 연구의 목적이 있다. 조사대상은 충남지역의 일반 문해교육 및 학력인정 문해교육 과정에 참여한 학습자를 대상으로 임의 표집하였고, 자료는 설문조사를 통하여 수집하였다. 수집한 자료는 SPSS PC+ Win. ver. 25.0과 SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2를 활용하여 분석하였다. 활용한 통계기법은 기술통계분석, 신뢰도분석, 상관관계분석, 이중 매개효과분석이었다. 연구 결과는 첫째, 사회적 고립감, 성공적 노화, 희망, 자아통합감 간에는 서로 유의미한 상관관계가 있었으며, 희망과 자아통합감의 상관계수가 가장 높았다. 둘째, 성공적 노화와 희망은 문해교육에 참여한 학습자의 사회적 고립감과 자아통합의 관계에서 직렬 이중 매개하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 문해교육에 참여한 학습자를 대상으로 자아통합감을 증진시킬 수 있는 새로운 모델로 활용될 수 있음을 시사하였다.
