Abstract

Korean youth spend tremendous time in school for preparing for college admissions. Their academic achievement and overall satisfaction with their lives are affected by how well they adapt to life in school. Successful adaptation to school is important enough to affect a student's future social life. One of the factors that affect adaptation to school is the psychological condition of adolescent anxiety. Anxiety is one of the common mental disorders that appear in people who are not familiar with new environments. Anxiety is known to be related to behavioral problems, and problems with psychological and emotional adaptation. This condition is dramatically increased in adolescents.Parental conflict in particular is known to be a major factor in affecting youth anxiety. As parental conflict became more severe, children felt more negative emotions such as anger, sadness and worry. Moreover, when a child's issue caused the parental conflict, there were more side effects in the emotional condition of the child. This study shows how parental conflict affects a child's anxiety and a child's school life.This problem is analyzed through structural equation modeling.

우리나라 청소년들은 하루 중 대부분 시간을 학교에서 입시 위주의 교육으로 지낸다. 많은 시간을 학교에서 보내기 때문에 학교생활의 적응 여부는 청소년의 학업성취도 및 생활만족도와 관계가 있고 길게는 사회생활에까지 영향을 미치므로 그 중요성이 크다고 할 수 있다. 학교적응에 많은 영향을 미치는 요인 중의 하나로 청소년기의 심리적 불안을 고려해 볼 수 있다. 청소년의 가정환경은 불안에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인으로 알려졌으며, 그중 부부갈등이 가정환경에 미치는 영향력은 아주 크다고 할 수 있다. 가정에서 부부가 심하게 싸울수록 자녀는 분노, 슬픔, 걱정 등 부정적인 감정을 더 많이 느꼈으며, 부부갈등의 문제가 자녀 자신에 관한 내용일수록 그 정도는 더욱 심하게 나타났다. 본 연구는 이러한 이론적 배경을 근거로 부부갈등이 청소년의 불안과 학교적응에 어떻게 영향을 미치는가를 구조방정식 모형을 통하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 부부갈등 강도와 부부갈등 내용은 청소년의 불안감에 영향을 주었으며, 불안감은 학교 교우들과의 적응에 부정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 그러나 부부갈등 해결은 불안감에 영향을 미치진 않았지만, 학교 교우적응과 수업적응에 직접적으로 부정적인 영향을 미쳤다.
