본 연구의 목적은 자녀의 또래 상호작용에 영향을 미치는 자녀의 정서표현에 대한 어머니의 수용태도와 자녀의 정서지능의 효과를 살펴보았다. 서울 경기지역에 거주하는 3-5세 유아를 둔 부모 145명과 유아의 담임선생님이 본 연구에 참여를 하였으며, 수거한 설문지는 SPSS 17을 사용하여, F 검증과 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 우선 유아의 정서 지능은 유아의 성에 따라 차이가 있었고, 어머니의 정서 수용태도는 여아의 부정적인 정서표현을 할 때 만 차이가 나타나는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 자녀의 긍정적인 또래 상호작용에 영향을 주는 변인은 유아의 성과 유아의 정서 지능이었으며, 자녀의 부정적인 또래 상호작용에 영향을 주는 변인은 유아의 연령과 유아의 정서 지능이었다.

This study examined the relationship between maternal attitudes toward children's expressiveness, children's emotional intelligence and problem behaviors. The question as to whether emotional intelligence mediated the relationship between maternal attitudes and problem behaviors was also explored. A sample of 307 preschool children were used as subjects. Mothers rated their levels of acceptance toward their children's emotions, while teachers reported on the children's emotional abilities and behavioral problems. The data were analyzed by means of regression analyses. Our results indicated that mothers' controlling attitudes were associated with low levels of worry-anxiety. Additionally, it was found that children with high emotional intelligence showed low levels of worry-anxiety, hostility-aggression, and hyperactivity-inattention. While multiple factors of emotional intelligence had differential impacts, the self-control factor was the most powerful predictor for all the problem behaviors. It was further found that a mother's receptive attitude was related to higher levels of self-awareness in children. Instead of the significant mediating effect of emotional intelligence, it was revealed that emotional intelligence had greater effects upon problem behaviors than maternal attitudes toward children's expressiveness.
