초록

본 탐색적 연구는 사회적 배제 경험과 반려동물 키우기의 상호작용이 심리적 안녕감에 미치는 효과를 확인하기 위해 이루어졌다. 이를 위해 참가자들이 공동체로부터 얼마나 존중받고 있는지 (네/아니오), 현재 반려동물을 키우고 있는지 (네/아니오), 키우고 있다면 어떤 동물인지 (복수응답 가능)에 대해 응답하게 하였고, 참가자들의 심리적 안녕감을 측정하였다. 결과적으로 사회적 배제를 경험한 집단은 그렇지 않은 집단보다 심리적 안녕감이 낮았고, 반려동물을 키우는 집단은 키우지 않는 집단보다 심리적 안녕감이 높았다. 아울러 사회적 배제를 경험한 집단은 반려동물을 키울 때가 키우지 않을 때보다 심리적 안녕감이 높았고, 사회적 배제를 경험하지 않은 집단은 반려동물 키울 때와 키우지 않을 때의 심리적 안녕감에 차이가 없었다. 즉 사회적 배제 (없음 vs. 있음)와 반려동물 키우기 (안 키움 vs. 키움)의 이원상호작용이 심리적 안녕감에 미치는 효과가 관찰되었다. 본 연구는 반려동물 키우기가 웰빙을 증진시키는 효과가 있는 조건과 없는 조건을 경험적 데이터를 통해 확인했다는 점에서 이론적 시사점을 가진다.

Abstract

This exploratory study investigated the effect of the interaction between social exclusion experience and raising companion animal on psychological well-being. Participants answered questions on whether they were respected by the community (yes or no); whether they currently have a companion animal(s) (yes or no); if they do, what kind of animal(s) they have (multiple answers allowed). The study assessed the psychological well-being of the participants. The group that experienced social exclusion demonstrated lower levels of psychological well-being than the group that did not, and the group with a companion animal showed higher levels of psychological well-being than the group without. In the group that experienced social exclusion, those with a companion animal demonstrated higher psychological well-being than those without. In the group that did not experience social exclusion, there was no difference in psychological well-being between those with a companion animal and those without. In conclusion, this study observed the effect of the binary interaction between social exclusion (experienced vs. not experienced) and raising companion animal (not raising vs. raising) on psychological well-being. The empirical data offer theoretical implications for the conditions in which companion animals do or do not improve psychological well-being.
