본 연구는 초기재혼부부의 결혼생활유지에 자기분화, 부부갈등대처방식에 미치는 효과의 프로그램을 개발하기 위한 사전 연구로서 재혼부부를 대상으로 자기분화, 부부갈등대처방식이 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 연구하고자 한다. 요구도 조사를 위한 포커스 인터뷰 대상은 서울과 경기도 수도권에 사는 부부이고 나이는 30세 이상에서 62세 미만을 선정하였으며, 재혼생활 기간이 1년 이상 6년 미만의 실질적 경험이 있는 부부를 선정하였으며, 부부 한쪽이라도 배우자가 전혼관계를 통해 자녀가 있는 복합가정을 선정하였다. 본 연구는 재혼부부를 대상으로 2017년 4월 4일부터 5월 25일까지 포커스 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 1회기에 100분씩 총 2회기로 개별적 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 포커스 인터뷰를 실시한 결과, 재혼부부들은 원가족에서 형성된 미분화로 역기능적인 습관들이 삼각관계를 형성하고 불안을 더욱 증폭시켰다. 부부가 문제해결을 하는 상황에서 낮은 자아분화 수준으로 표현하며 갈등을 더욱 고조시켰다. 낮은 자기분화수준은 갈등관계에서 자신을 이성과 감정을 분리하지 못하고 감정적으로 반응하기도 하며, 환경에 흡수되는 부정적 갈등 대처방식에도 영향을 미쳤다. 재혼부부에게 가장 취약한 면이 부부간 친밀감이며 유대관계이다. 전혼에서 상처와 부정적 정서로 인해 부부 신뢰감이 취약하였다. 비교적 짧은 재혼기간의 영향과 여러 갈등 요소 인 경제적 갈등, 계부모-친부모의 갈등, 계부모-계자녀의 갈등, 전 배우자와의 갈등, 부부간 잠재적 갈등 등으로 인해 친근한 부부유대관계를 맺지 못하는 어려움을 호소하기도 하였다. 특히 전혼관계의 배우자에 대한 부정적 경험이 남아 있을 경우 현재 배우자를 신뢰하지 못하는 갈등이 영향을 주고 있었다. 그로 인한 부부갈등의 악순환을 초래하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 재혼부부의 결혼생활유지를 돕는 자기분화, 갈등대처방식에 미치는 통합적 프로그램을 구성하려고 하는 필요성을 시사하는 것이다. 점진적으로 재이혼은 증가하여 부부 및 가족 구성원인 또 다시 부정적 영향을 미치고, 사회문제로 확산될 수 있음을 시사한다. 예방적 차원에서 재혼부부의 결혼생활유지 프로그램에 대한 필요성을 시사한다.

The survey Was conducted from April 4, 2017 to April 25, 2017 for the subject remarried couples aged more then 30years living in Sooul, Gyeonggi province, chungchong province, Jeolla province and Kyeongsang province. 48 questionnaires are distributed and analyzed with SPSS WIN 21. Results of the analysis showed that the higher the level of self-differentiation of the remarried couple, the more positive influence of marital satisfaction on the emotional intimacy and sexual intimacy as the sub-factors of marital intimacy, (-), respectively. As a result of in-depth interviews, low levels of self-differentiation have negative effects on marital satisfaction and marital intimacy, resulting in a vicious cycle in marital conflict. And these results show the possibility of the unified construction of a marital satisfaction improvement program considering self-differentiation, marital intimacy, and marital conflict coping style.

This study examined the actor-effects and partner-effects of overt narcissism as a personality factor and conflict resolution styles as an interpersonal factor on marital satisfaction among couples. Data were collected from 337 couples through a survey conducted by a research institute. Structural equation modeling and individual mediation effects were verified using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Mediation Model (APIMeM) in the AMOS 28.0 program. The results of this study are as follows: First, both husbands' and wives' extraversion showed direct self-effects on their own marital satisfaction. Additionally, husbands' overt narcissism demonstrated a direct partner-effect on wives' marital satisfaction. Second, overt narcissism in both husbands and wives showed indirect self-effects through conflict resolution styles on marital satisfaction. Higher levels of husbands' overt narcissism influenced wives' maladaptive conflict resolution styles, which in turn affected marital satisfaction for both husbands and wives. This study highlights the importance of husbands' overt narcissism and wives' conflict resolution styles as significant variables influencing marital satisfaction. It suggests that differentiated interventions considering overt narcissism traits and gender-specific characteristics could potentially enhance marital satisfaction for couples.

This study investigated the moderating effects of conflict-coping strategies between marital conflict and satisfaction according to gender and marital period. The subjects of this study were 178 couples from Cheongju who have been married less than fourteen years. For husbands and wives who have been married less than 7 years, nothing moderated the interaction between marital conflict and satisfaction. However, for husbands who have been married between 8 and 14 years, their conflict withdrawal moderated the interaction between marital conflict and satisfaction. For their wives, their conflict-expression strategy and their husbands' conflict-expression strategy moderated the interaction between marital conflict and satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influential factors of the marital satisfaction of Korean couples and international couples and the impact of related variables involving marital equity and marital conflicts on marital satisfaction in a bid to give some suggestions on how to keep on leading a happy married life. A survey was conducted from July to September, 2010, and the answer sheets from 79 Korean couples and 79 international couples who numbered 316 were analyzed except for the incomplete answer sheets. The women of the international couples got the best mean scores. When the men and women of the international couples were compared, the women scored significantly higher than the men, which showed that the former group found themselves to put more investment in their marital relationship. Concerning ways of coping with marital conflicts in the groups, conflict intervention by oneself was most prevalent among the men of the international couples and least among the women of the Korean couples. Regarding sex-role attitude and communication, there were no significant differences in sex-role attitude. As to marital satisfaction, the men of the Korean couples got the highest mean scores, and the women of the international couples scored lowest. When the correlation analysis was conducted, the variable that had the closest correlation to marital satisfaction overall was positive problem solving by the spouse(.469), followed by conflict intervention by the spouse(-.453), positive problem solving by oneself(.451), the academic credential of the spouse(.443) and one's own retreat from conflict(-.409). As a result of making the regression analysis to find out which variables affected marital satisfaction, the most predictable variable was communication scores, followed by conflict intervention by the spouse, positive problem solving by oneself, one's own retreat from conflict, the academic credential of the spouse and psychoemotional equity.

Ultimately, a total of 77 cases were analyzed using the Partial Least Square method of structural equation model methodology. The key findings from this study are as follows. First, the wives in this study showed a high rate of exposure to emotional abuse by their husbands although the physical violence was gone. Second, emotional abuse by husbands significantly affected depression on their wives. Third, marital adjustment was found to have a mediating effect on the relationship between the emotional abuse and the depression. Fourth, a mediating effect from passive coping was revealed; in particular, avoiding was the most powerful factor explaining the relationship between the emotional abuse and the depression. However, active coping failed to mediate the relationship between the emotional abuse and the depression.
