불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족이 우울에 미치는 영향 : 반추와 미래에 대한 비관적 확신의 이중매개효과를 중심으로

The Effects of Intolerance of Uncertainty on Depression: The Double Mediating Effects of Rumination and Pessimistic Prediction Certainty

초록 (요약문)

본 연구에서는 반추와 미래에 대한 비관적 확신이 불안을 통제하였을 때, 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족과 우울 간 관계를 순차적으로 매개하는지를 검증하고자 하였다. 이에 Hayes’ Process Macro Model 6를 사용하여 만 18에서 29세인 344명의 대학생 및 대학원생의 자료를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족은 불안을 통제하였을 때 우울을 예측하여, 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족이 불안과의 관계를 설명하고도 우울 그 자체에도 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 둘째, 불확실성에 대 한 인내력 부족과 우울의 관계에서, 반추와 미래에 대한 비관적 확신이 각각 두 변인 사이를 완전 매개하였다. 셋째, 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족이 우울을 예측하는 경로에서, 반추와 미래에 대한 비관적 확신이 순차적으로 완전 매개하였으며, 직접효과와 불확실성에 대한 인내력 부족이 미래에 대한 비관적 확신을 거쳐 우울에 이르는 간접효과는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 이에 따라 불확실성에 대한 인내력이 부족한 사람들은 반추를 많이 사용할 확률이 높으며, 높은 반추는 우울에 직접적으로 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 미래에 대한 비관적 확신을 높임으로써 우울 가능성을 증가시키는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 20대 청년들의 우울을 이해함에 있어서, 불확실성에 대하여 인내력이 부족한 성향을 지닌 이들을 대상으로 반추 대처를 감소시키고, 미래에 대한 비관성을 감소시키는 개입에 초점을 맞추는 것이 중요함을 제안하였다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 시사점과 제한점을 논의하였다.

This study aimed to verify the double mediating effect of Rumination and Pessimistic Prediction Certainty between the Intolerance of Uncertainty and Depression, when controlling the shared variance with anxiety among emerging adult university and graduate students. Data was gathered from 344 students and analyzed through Hayes' Process analysis model 6 for double mediation. The main results of this study are as follows. First, the Intolerance of Uncertainty explained unique variance in depression when controlling for anxiety. Second, between the Intolerance of Uncertainty and Depression, Rumination and Certainty in pessimistic predictions each showed a full mediation effect. Third, in terms of the relationship between the Intolerance of Uncertainty and Depression, a double mediating effect of Rumination and Certainty in pessimistic predictions has been confirmed. Based on the research results, the significance and limitations of this study were discussed.
