초록

본 연구는 만3~5세 자녀를 둔 어머니와 만 6~7세 초등 1, 2학년 자녀를 둔 어머니의 행복감 비교를 통하여 유아 및 초등 저학년 어머니의 행복감 특성과 차이를 알아봄으로써 두 집단 어머니의 행복감 증진 방안을 모색하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 이루어졌다. 연구대상은 유아 어머니 168명과 초등 저학년 어머니 170명, 총 338명이었으며 연구도구는 Ryff의 심리적 안녕감 척도를 사용하였다. 연구결과, 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니의 전체 행복감에서는 차이가 없었으나 6개의 하위변인 즉, 자아수용, 긍정적 대인관계, 자율성, 환경통제력, 삶의 목적, 개인적 성장의 변인에서 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니 간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 하위변인 중 자율성과 개인성장의 변인에서는 유아 어머니가 초등 저학년 어머니에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 환경통제력, 긍정적 대인관계, 삶의 목적, 자아수용의 변인에서는 초등 저학년 어머니가 유아 어머니에 비해 높게 나타났다. 또한 어머니의 연령, 학력, 소득, 종교에 따라 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니의 행복감에는 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 이 같은 결과를 통해 자녀교육이 어머니의 행복감에 주는 영향력과 유 초 연계교육의 필요성을 확인할 수 있었다. 어머니들의 행복감 증진을 위해서는 유 초등 연계교육의 내실화 및 국가적 차원에서 어머니의 일반적 특성에 기초한 체계적인 부모교육과 정책적 지원이 강화될 필요가 있다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the degree of happiness between mothers of preschoolers (3-5yrs) and mothers of elementary school students (6-7yrs). The subjects of this study included 168 mothers of preschoolers and 170 mothers of elementary school students. They were randomly chosen. We measured and analyzed 338 mothers' happiness using Ryff's psychological well-being items. The results of this study reveal that although overall happiness level was similar, the two groups of mothers' happiness had statistically significant differences in 6 factors of mothers' happiness. Preschooler mothers had higher levels of happiness in autonomy and personal growth, while elementary school student mothers had higher levels of happiness in environment mastery, positive relationships, purpose of life, and self-acceptance. Also, the background of mothers, such as age, educational status, family income, and religion caused statistically significant differences in happiness level of both groups.
