본 연구는 청소년의 정서조절능력이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 파악하고, 정서조절능력과 삶의 만족도 간의 관계에서 대인관계역량의 매개효과를 검증하고자 수행되었다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 한국청소년정책연구원의 2015년 청소년 역량지수 측정 및 국제비교 연구II의 횡단조사 데이터를 토대로 중학생 총 3,404명을 대상으로 2차 자료 분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 청소년의 정서조절능력은 삶의 만족도에 유의미한 영향을 주는 요인으로 나타났다. 둘째, 청소년의 정서조절능력이 대인관계역량에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 청소년의 대인관계역량은 삶의 만족도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 청소년의 정서조절능력이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향에서 대인관계역량의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 청소년의 삶의 만족도 및 정서조절능력과 대인관계역량 증진에 필요한 개입 방안을 제시하였다.
