초록

본 연구에서는 대학생과 노인을 대상으로 지혜의 정도가 어떻게 다른지, 그에 따라 다양한 삶의 딜레마 상황에서 주인공들의 입장을 고려하여 어떤 판단을 하는지, 아울러 개방성과 자기초월이 지혜와 어떤 관계를 보이는지를 살핌으로써 지혜의 기능을 탐색해보고자 하였다. 노인은 대학생에 비해 지혜의 모든 하위요인에서 높은 점수를 나타내었는데 특히 절제와 균형 요인에서 가장 큰 차이를 보였다. 노인은 대학생에 비해 자기초월점수도 더 높은 것으로 나타났으나 경험에 대한 개방성에서는 두 집단 간에 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 삶의 딜레마 상황에서 노인들은 대학생에 비해 문제가 발생하게 된 원인이 상황 속 인물들에게 있는 정도를 더 낮게 평가하였고 그 인물들이 느끼는 부정적 정서도 적게 보고하였다. 각 상황에서 도움이 되는 해결방안에 대한 판단에서도 노인집단과 대학생집단은 차이가 있었다. 노인과 대학생 모두 지혜는 자기초월과 정적 상관을 보였으나, 개방성은 노인의 지혜와만 정적 상관을 보였다. 노인의 경우에는 연령과 지혜 간에 상관이 없었으나 대학생의 경우에는 연령이 높을수록 지혜점수가 더 높아 노인과 대학생간에 차이를 보였다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare the wisdom of old people and college students and to investigate the relations of wisdom, openness to experience, and self-transcendence. Seventy-four college students and fifty-six old people were measured their level of wisdom on Korean Wisdom Scale(Kim, 2008). It was found that old people got higher scores than college students on four areas of the Korean Wisdom Scale, especially in ‘self-control and balance’ factor. Also old people showed higher scores in self-transcendence than college students. Comparing the judgments on four hypothetical life dilemma situations, old people judged the protagonists less responsible for the dilemma than college students. Old people gave more weights on concerns for other people as best solutions whereas college students more on protagonist-oriented solutions. Wisdom was related positively both to self-transcendence and to openness to experience in old people, but wisdom was related positively only to self-transcendence in college students. Limitations of this study, its implications and suggestions for further research were discussed.
