초록
이분법적 사고는 사물이나 대상을 둘로 나누어서 판단하는 양식이다. 이에 따른 양극적 결론은 정서, 행동 등에서 극단성과 부적응을 초래하므로, 정신 병리와 연관성이 높다. 본 연구에서는 대학생 피험자들을 대상으로 이분법 사고와 MMPI-2로 측정한 정신 병리의 관련성을 탐색했다. 이분법 사고 집단은 L, K척도에서 통제집단보다 유의미하게 낮았고, F, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0번 척도는 높았으며, 1, 3, 5번 척도에서는 차이가 없었다. 즉, 신체화 등 일부 증상을 제외한 다양한 임상 척도들이 높아서, 이분법 사고의 정신 병리적 편재성을 시사한다. 또한 이분법 사고에 의지하는 사람들은 임상 척도가 유의하게 상승하는 프로화일을 보이고, 스스로 상담치료를 원한다고 밝히는 경향이 있었다. 특히, 이분법 집단의 MMPI-2 프로화일은 각각 0번과 9번 척도가 상승되는 경우가 발견되어서, 자아상의 양극적인 모순을 시사한다. 이에 더해 MMPI-2가 제공하는 120개 척도와 이분법 사고의 상관을 포괄적으로 탐색하였는데, 개념적인 분류와 분석에 따르면 이분법 사고의 정리병리 영역은 전반적인 부적응과 방어의 약화, 부정적 정서, 분노와 소외의 경향, 기분이 들떠있어서 충동조절을 못하는 모습, 지각이 왜곡되고 사고 과정이 흩어지는 경향과 관련되어 있었다.
Abstract
Dichotomous thinking(DT) refers to the tendency to judge objects, people or events in terms of extremes. DT can have psychopathological consequences. The binary conclusions drawn as a result of DT can lead to extreme reactions and maladaptive patterns of emotions and behaviours. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between DT and psychopathology using the clinical scales of the revised Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory(MMPI-2). The participants were college students assigned to two contrast groups(DT vs normal controls) on the basis of Dichotomous Thinking Index. The DT group showed lower L, K and higher F, D, Pd, Pa, Pt, Sc, Ma, Si scale scores than the control group. This confirmed the expected relationship between DT and various domains of psychopathology. As predicted, dichotomous thinkers showed elevated MMPI-2 profiles and revealed higher level of intention to participate in psychotherapy. A result of particular importance is that the profile of dichotomous thinkers was characterized by the elevation of each Si and Ma scale(Spike 0, Spike 9) which implies contradictory self images. The correlations between DT and the various MMPI-2 scales were investigated as a preliminary exploration of future researches. A conceptual analysis of the correlations found in the present study suggests that psychopathology of DT may be categorized into five domains: 1) global dysfunction, 2) negative affect, 3) anger and alienation, 4) elation and impulsivity, and 5) disorganization of thought.
