초록

본 연구의 목적은 코로나바이러스 유행이 대학생들의 불안, 우울, 공포 및 스트레스와 같은 부정정서에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. J대학교에 재학 중인 대학생을 대상으로 인터뷰를 실시하였으며, 시간에 따라 부정정서의 변화 양상을 살펴보고자 2019년 3월, 2020년 3월, 2020년 11월 세 시기를 측정하였다. 조사 시점이 2020년 11월로, 2019년 3월과 2020년 3월에 겪었던 정서 기억 회상을 돕기 위해 연구 참여자에게 당시 겪었을 법한 상황에 대한 구조화된 인터뷰 질문을 하고 답변에 대한 요약정리를 하도록 요청하였다. 세 시기의 부정정서에 차이가 있는지 살펴보기 위해 반복측정 변량분석을 실시하였고, 부정정서의 변화 양상을 살펴보기 위해 다항식 추세 분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과 세 시기의 부정정서에 차이가 있었으며, 2019년과 비교하여 2020년 3월에 대학생들이 우울, 불안, 공포 및 스트레스를 더 느끼고 있었으며, 이러한 부정정서가 2020년 11월까지 지속되었음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 코로나바이러스의 영향이 지속되고 있는 현재에도 대학생들이 부정정서를 겪을 수 있음을 시사한다. 본 연구의 결과는 코로나바이러스 유행 상황에서 대학생이 겪을 수 있는 부정정서의 양상을 나타내며, 결과를 바탕으로 대학생을 위한 스트레스 관리 지침 및 심리 상담과 같은 심리지원체계 제공의 필요성이 제시되었다.

This study aims to investigate the effect of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic on negative emotions, such as anxiety, depression, fear, and stress, in Korean college students. The study recruited students from J University and conducted interviews across three time points, namely, March 2019, March 2020, and November 2020. For three time points, the participants responded to structured questions about situations they may have encountered and they were asked to summarize their responses. Repeated-measures ANOVAs were performed to examine whether differences exist in negative emotions between time points. Furthermore, polynomial trend analyses were conducted to examine resultant patterns over time. The results revealed that negative emotions displayed significant differences between time points. Moreover, trend analyses revealed a curvilinear pattern, which indicates that negative emotions increased and were then sustained. These findings suggest that negative emotions may continue to become prevalent among college students with the increased impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The study discussed the need for psychological support systems, such as stress management and psychological counseling, for college students.
