초록
본 연구는 우리 사회에 급증하고 있는 노인들의 성공적 노화를 도모하기 위해, 노인들의 감사성향과 감사표현, 관계만족이 정신적 웰빙에 기여하는 구체적 기제를 살펴보았다. 이를 위해, 만 65세 이상 노인 440명의 자기보고식 자료를 사용하여 구조방정식 모형 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 감사성향과 감사표현은 노인의 관계만족과 정신적 웰빙을 각각 유의하게 예측하였다. 이 때 관계만족에 미치는 감사표현의 영향력은 감사성향의 영향력에 비해 통계적으로 더 강력하였으며, 관계만족의 매개효과 역시 감사표현과 정신적 웰빙 간의 경로에서만 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 감사성향이 강하고 감사표현이 많을수록 노인의 관계만족과 정신적 웰빙이 증가하였으며, 특히 감사표현이 많은 것은 노인의 관계만족을 높여서 결국 정신적 웰빙을 증가시키는 효과가 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로, 주요 발견의 시사점과 노인의 정신적 웰빙을 높이기 위한 구체적 방법에 대해 논의하였다.
Abstract
In order to promote the successful aging of the elderly whose numbers have drastically increased in our society, this study examined whether dispositional gratitude and gratitude expression contribute to the mental wellbeing of the elderly through the mediation of relational satisfaction. For this research, we analyzed self-report data from 440 people aged over 65, using structural equation modeling. The results indicated that both dispositional gratitude and gratitude expression directly predicted relational satisfaction and mental wellbeing. Of note, the influence of gratitude expression on relational satisfaction was bigger than that of dispositional gratitude. Furthermore, the mediating effect of relational satisfaction was significant only in the path between gratitude expression and mental wellbeing. The implications of these findings were discussed and effective intervention strategies were presented to improve the mental wellbeing of the elderly.
