The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of distress tolerance on subjective well-being and the mediating effect of experiential avoidance in the relationship between distress tolerance and subjective well-being. We conducted an online survey a total of 285 normal adults in the nation from October 21 to 24, 2015. The questionnaire was composed of a distress intolerance index, a concise measure of subjective well-being, and acceptance action questionnaire. And questionnaires were distributed and retrived by an online survey company. Collected data has been analyzed by the structural equation modeling. The correlation analysis showed that distress tolerance was positively correlated with subjective well-being, while negatively with experiential avoidance. Also, the verification of mediating effects of experiential avoidance in the relation between distress tolerance and subjective well-being indicated that experiential avoidance partly mediated the relationship at a meaningful level. Additionally, deflection correction bootstrap analysis was used to verify indirect effects and its results revealed that the mediating effect going from distress tolerance to subjective well-being passing through experiential avoidance was statistically significant. That is, distress tolerance not only influences subjective well-being directly but also influences indirectly through experiential avoidance. Finally, significance and limitations of this study were discussed along with the suggestions for further research.

This study aims to study the impact of pet attachment on subjective well-being, focusing on individuals who live with pets. In addition, it is to recognize that their basic psychological requirement mediates between pet attachment and subjective well-being. For this purpose, a survey was performed on 358 adults living with pets nationwide. The final data of 319 people were evaluated after excluding invalid information. Dependent on the theoretical approach of the attachment theory, the human-pet relationship was examined by dividing it into two orthogonal dimensions pet attachment prevention and pet attachment anxiety(Zilcha-Mano et al., 2011). The mediating effects were investigated as an in-depth mechanism that mediates between pet attachment and subjective well-being, the mediating effects were examined, in terms of the three basic psychological needs of Self-Determination Theory, which are autonomy, competence, and relatedness. As an outcome, first, pet attachment prevention and pet attachment anxiety both revealed a negative correlation with subjective well-being. Second, basic psychological needs, which are autonomy, competence, and relatedness, are mediated between pet attachment and subjective well-being. Autonomy, competence, and relatedness fully mediated the relationship between pet attachment avoidance and subjective well-being. Meanwhile, in the case of pet attachment anxiety, only autonomy among basic psychological needs is fully mediated between pet attachment anxiety and subjective well-being in the case of pet attachment avoidance. This means that pet attachment prevention or pet attachment anxiety correlates with subjective well-being by satisfying basic psychological needs instead of directly affecting personal well-being. Regarding the pet effect, it is meaningful to find an in-depth mechanism that the human-pet relationship has for an adaptive and positive impact on humans.

본 연구은 군 장병들의 자기결정성에 영향을 미치는 변인을 선정하고 회복탄력성의 매개효과를 알아보고자 한 박사학위논문의 요약본이다. 연구를 위해 전국 육군 8개 부대 장병 898명을 대상으로 자기결정성의 관련 변인을 측정하기 위한 설문을 실시하였다. 설문 결과는 통계분석을 시행하였는데, 매개효과 검증을 위해 독립변인으로 그릿과 주관적 안녕감을, 종속변인으로 자기결정성, 매개변인을 회복탄력성으로 하는 3단계 회기분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 군 장병들의 일반적인 특징에서 성별과 회복탄력성 교육참여 여부는 각 변인에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았고, 연령은 27세 이상, 계급은 부사관이 모든 변인에서 높은 수치를 보였다. 그릿과 주관적 안녕감의 하위요인들은 자기결정성에 모든 하위요인에 다소 높은 정적 상관관계와 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 그릿과 주관적 안녕감의 하위요인들은 회복탄력성의 모든 하위요인과도 전반적으로 높은 정적 상관관계를 보였고, 전반적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 회복탄력성의 하위요인들은 자기결정성의 하위요인 전반에 상관관계를 가졌으며, 부분매개효과를 확인했으나 일부요인은 기준을 충족하지 못하였다. 결론적으로 군 장병들에게 지속적인 관심과 꾸준한 노력을 기울일만한 동기부여가 무엇보다 필요하며, 군 장병들의 성공적인 자기결정력 성장을 위해서는 자율성 증진과 원활한 대인관계 환경 제공을 통한 그릿과 주관적 안녕감의 요인들의 충족이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 장병들의 회복탄력성 능력 향상을 위한 그릿과 주관적 안녕감 증진은 장병들의 자기결정성 증진에 기여할 주요 수단임을 알 수 있었고, 장병들의 주관적, 긍정적 심리상태와 자신 삶의 만족을 위한 주관적인 능력 증진을 위해서는 그릿 및 주관적 안녕감과 회복탄력성이 주요한 에너지로 활용될 수 있음을 추론할 수 있었다.
