초록

최근 국내외에서 종교성과 정신건강과의 관계연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나 아동기의 종교성 연구는 제한되어 있다. 이러한 기존문헌의 한계를 극복하고자 본 연구는 후기 아동기인 초등학교 5, 6학년(평균 연령=11.19) 631명을 대상으로 종교성과 친사회성 그리고 공격성과의 관계를 연구했고 이들 변인 모두에서 성차가 발견되어온 선행연구 결과를 바탕으로 성별에 따른 연구변인 관계의 차이에 관한 검증을 하였다. 그 결과 남, 여 아동 모두 종교성은 아동의 친사회성과 정적, 친사회성은 공격성과 부적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났고 종교성과 공격성은 유의미한 상관이 나타나지 않았다. 보다 구체적으로 아동의 종교성, 친사회성, 공격성의 관계를 알아보기 위해 구조방정식을 통한 모형 검증 결과 초등학생의 종교성과 공격성 간의 관계에서 친사회성이 매개하는 모형이 지지되었다. 이들 관계에서의 성차를 알아보기 위해 다집단 분석을 실시한 결과 남녀 집단에 따른 구조모형의 성차는 없었지만, 남, 여 아동의 경로계수를 비교한 결과 친사회성이 공격성에 미치는 영향은 남아에게 더 강하게 나타났다. 연구결과에 관한 의의와 앞으로의 연구방향이 논의에 제시되었다.

Abstract

Research has established consistent relationships between religiosity and mental health outcomes; however, research on children’s religiosity and psychosocial outcomes is scarce. The current study examined the relationship between religiosity, prosocial behavior, and aggression in late childhood (n = 631, M age = 11.19). We further analyzed gender differences in religiosity, prosocial behavior, and aggression because gender has been considered an important factor for understanding these three variables. Children’s religiosity was positively correlated with prosocial behavior, and prosocial behavior was negatively correlated with aggression. However, children’s religiosity was not correlated with their level of aggression. Prosocial behavior mediated the relationship between children’s religiosity and aggression. In other words, a higher level of religiosity was positively related to prosocial behavior. Prosocial behavior, in turn, was negatively related to aggression. When we performed a multi-group analysis of this structural model, we confirmed that the model of the prosocial behavior as a mediator between children’s religiosity and aggression held true for both boys and girls. However, differences in the path coefficients for boys and girls indicated that the association between prosocial behavior and aggression was stronger among the boys.
