2000년대 들어 상담에 대한 관심과 상담 수요가 크게 늘어가고 있는 상황에서 상대적으로 직무 특성상 상담자들 또한 심리적인 어려움들을 느끼면서 상담자 스스로 자신의 정신 건강 및 유지를 위한 자기돌봄의 중요성이 증가하고 있는 것이 사실이다. 상담자는 많은 시간을 내담자와의 직접적인 대면을 통해서 내담자의 다양한 문제에 대한 해결과 도움을 제공해 줌에 있어 지속적인 치료 과정을 함께한다. 상담자는 내담자와의 상황 대면을 통한 치료 과정을 함께하면서 치료의 긍정적인 면을 접하기도 하지만, 한편으로는 지속적인 스트레스로 인해 심리적 소진과 다양한 정서적 피로도를 경험하게 된다. 이에 다양한 심리적·정서적 소진과 피로도에 대해 적절하고 유연하게 대처하기 위해서는 상담자 스스로 자신을 보호할 수 있는 자기돌봄이 필요하며, 상담자 자신이 어떠한 상황에서도 긍정적인 마음을 유지 할 수 있는 자기효능감을 향상시키는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 마음 챙김에 기반한 MBSR 프로그램이 다양한 상담 현장에서 심리적 소진을 겪고 있는 상담자들의 심리적 안녕감, 특히 상담자의 자기돌봄 및 자기효능감에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 실제 현장에서 활동하고 있는 상담경력 1년에서 5년 미만의 상담자 40명을 대상으로 주 1회기, 회기 당 2시간의 총 12주간의 MBSR 프로그램을 통한 상담자의 자기돌봄 및 효능감의 변화가 상담자의 심리적 안녕감에 긍정적 요인으로 적용될 수 있다는 것을 확인하여 실제 상담 현장에서의 상담자들이 겪고 있는 심리적 소진의 완화를 통한 안정적인 상담 현장이 조성될 수 있도록 기여하고자 한다.

We employed meta-analysis to identify associations between self-compassion and various psychological variables using Korean literature. Various psychological variables were categorized by mutual consent of researchers who referred to the relative previous researches and hand books of psychology. We gathered 114 dissertations and journal articles published in Korea until now, including a total of 423 effect sizes, and calculated mean effect sizes using CMA2. We found large effect sizes for the relationships between self-compassion and positive psychological variables group of r = .45, and between self-compassion and negative psychological variables group of r = -.44. In addition, sub forms of positive psychological variables group and negative psychological variables group had statistically significant relationships with self-compassion. According to the results, we determined that self-compassion is an important explanatory and meaningful variable in understanding psychology of Korean. This study could help explore and develop the evidence for self-compassion in psychology.

This Paper is Empirical Analysis of the Relationship between Authentic Leadership and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. It's important for enhancing corporate performance to facilitate positive interactions between leaders and members, and to cultivate a positive psychology for achieving common goals. Members with high positive psychological capital have confidence in performing their tasks, expect successful outcomes, and when problems arise, they adjust their course and persevere. This complex state of adjusting or transcending one's psychology is referred to as positive psychological capital (Luthans & Youssef, 2007). Recognizing this, the study identifies positive psychological capital as a crucial factor in enhancing corporate performance and competitiveness, and chooses it as a mediator in the research.

This questionnaire study examined the processes linking complexity of self-construal to self-positivity conceptualized as taking multiple perspectives, self-acceptance and self-regulation that, in turn, affect psychological well-being among people with an experience of life-crisis during adulthood due to physical disability or divorce. Data were drawn from 359 adult Koreans residing in Seoul metropolitan area, including the physically disabled, the divorced, and their counterparts without a life-crisis experience during adulthood for comparison. On average, the life-crisis experience group(LEG) had a higher independent selfconstrual and a lower interdependent self-construal than the comparison group(CG). As predicted, complexity of self-construal contributed to taking multiple perspectives that helps searching for meaning, and this, in turn, was found to foster self-acceptance and self-regulation. Through these variables except self-regulation, complex self-construal contributed to psychological well-being as manifested by a higher level of positive emotion and a lower level of depression. As expected, while taking multiple perspectives fostered positive emotion both directly and indirectly through self-acceptance among LEG and CG, only in LEG it directly reduced depression. The comparative approach employed in this study enabled to discern that taking multiple perspectives promotes psychological well-being in LEG by contributing to both meaning making and positive attitude, whereas it promotes psychological well-being in CG primarily by fostering positive attitude. Finally implications for this study were discussed and directions for future research were suggested.

The study empirically examines if transformational leadership and implementation of corporate training programs positively affect employees' affirmative psychology toward the organization, which has been actively studied in 2000s meeting the needs of the times. The study, further, examines if the employees' affirmative psychology toward organization has any significant relationship with perceived organizational support, The study finally examines if the perceived organizational support has any influence on organizational performance. Researchers have recently studied on these issues, but there have been few empirical studies. In addition to those causal relationships, the study also examines how the employees' affirmative psychology toward organization and perceived organizational support moderate those relationships, if any, among the variables, by which the study would contribute to building theoretical foundation of affirmative psychology. The results show that all the studied relationships be accepted as hypothesized, which may imply that leaders should exploit their own leadership capacity and organizations should improve their corporate training programs, which may consequently have positive impacts on organizational performance.

In this study, 369 social workers in 10 social welfare facilities in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province were sampled. The results of this study show that compassion experienced by the social workers has a positive effect on positive emotion and organizational identification, and positive psychological capital has a significant effect on the organization identification. In addition, double mediating effect of positive emotion and positive psychological capital were also shown to be significant in the relationship between compassion and organizational identification. Therefore, this study has the theoretical implication that double mediating effect of positive emotion and positive psychological capital are demonstrated in the relationship between compassion and organization identification.
