초록
본 연구는 성인여성을 대상으로 자기존중기억 내용의 주제를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 자기존중기억(self-esteem memory)이란 자기에 대해 현저하게 긍정적으로 또는 부정적으로 생각했던 사건에 대한 기억을 말하는데, 성취에 관한 내용과 관계에 관한 내용으로 대별될 수 있다. 연구 참가자는 청년기 여성(M=21.56) 18명, 중년기 여성(M=54.13) 15명, 노년기 여성(M=74.35) 20명으로 총 53명의 성인여성이었으며, 긍/부정적 자기존중기억을 각 4가지씩 총 8가지를 회상, 구술하도록 하여 그 내용을 주제별로 분류하고 살펴보았다. 분석 결과, 성인여성은 긍정적인 자기존중기억과 부정적인 자기존중기억 모두 성취보다는 사회적 관계에 관한 내용에 초점이 맞추어져 있었으며 그러한 경향은 청년의 긍정적 기억에서 또 중년의 부정적 기억에서 발견되었다. 이는 개인이 강조되는 서양문화와 비교해 집단주의적 성격이 중시되는 우리 문화 특성과 공동체적 특질이 두드러진 여성의 특성을 반영한다고 할 수 있다. 추후에 자기존중기억의 주제에 대한 성차 및 생애 주기별 차이에 대한 연구가 필요하다.
Abstract
This study investigated the themes of self-esteem memories in female adults. Self-esteem memories mean memories that are focused on evaluations of the self and the themes of them are classified as achievement or social relationship. Eighteen young adults(M=21.56), fifteen middle aged adults(M=54.13), and twenty older adults(M=74.35), totally fifty three female adults participated. They recalled 4 positive and 4 negative self-esteem memories respectively. The results showed that memories of positive and negative self-worth frequently focused on relationship themes, and this tendency was significant in positive memory of young adults and negative memory of middle aged adults. This suggests that social relationship is a dominant cultural value in Korea. Links between interpersonal relationship and positive/negative self-esteem memories are explained by culture, gender and developmental tasks. Further researches about the differences by sex and life scripts in the content of self-esteem memories are needed.
