Three hundred and ninety nine middle and high school students in Seoul participated in this study. Temperament, stress coping strategies, and psychological well-being were evaluated by self-report questionnaires. Data were analyzed using Cronbach's alpha, frequencies, percentiles, means, standard deviations, two-way ANOVAs, Pearson's correlations and hierarchical multiple regression analyses. The results were as follows: First, there were significant differences in psychological well-being as a function of gender and school levels. Second, temperament and stress coping strategies were related to psychological well-being in adolescents. In the sub factor of temperament, activity and persistency were positively associated with psychological well-being, whereas rigidity was negatively related to psychological well-being. Among stress coping strategies, problem-focused strategy was positively associated with psychological well-being, whereas emotion-discharge strategy and affective-regulation strategy were negatively related to psychological well-being. Third, hierarchical multiple regression revealed that problem-focused strategy and emotion-discharge strategy were influential factors in explaining the level of psychological well-being controlling for gender, school levels and temperament of the adolescents.

본 연구에서는 신체상 위협상황에서 대처 전략을 측정할 수 있는 한국판 신체상 대처전략 척도(K-BICSI: The Korean Version of the Body Image Coping Strategy: K-BICSI)를 사용하여 회피 전략을 사용하는 정도에 따라 고회피집단(N=12)과 저 회피집단(N=12)으로 구분하여 실험참가자를 모집하였다. 연구의 목적은 외모 관련 자극이 제시 되었을 때 달라지는 주의편향과 자극 제시 전후의 정서변화를 살펴보는 것이었다. 실험 참가자는 여대생 24명으로, 안구운동 추적장비의 최초 응시방향과 응시시간을 이용해 주의편향을 확인했으며, 정서변화는 VAS로 측정하였다. 분석 결과 고 회피집단은 저 회피집단에 비해 비매력자극에 대한 더 높은 최초응시 경향을 나타냈지만, 매력자극에 대해서는 유의미하게 긴 응시시간을 보였고, 외모관련 지극 제시 전보다 후에 더 유의미하게 정서가 부정적으로 변하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 고 회피집단은 저 회피집단과는 다른 주의 인지기제를 가지고 있으며 외모관련 자극에 정서적으로 민감하게 반응한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
