김지연(Kim, Jiyeon) 한국동서정신과학회 2020 동서정신과학 Vol.23 No.1

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating effect of cognitive emotion regulation on the relationship between maternal psychological control and smart-phone addiction tendency perceived by elementary school students. For this purpose, 487 elementary school students in Seoul were enrolled in the study. The measurement tools were self-report questionnaire for three areas of psychological addiction tendency of adolescent toward smart-phone, psychological control of mothers perceived by elementary students, and adaptive cognitive emotional regulation being used. Based on the collected data, we analyzed using SPSS 23.0 statistical program and Mplus7. In order to examine the general tendency of mothers psychological control, cognitive emotion regulation strategy and smartphone addiction tendency measurement variables perceived by elementary students, correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between descriptive statistics and each variables. In order to evaluate the mediating effect, we presumed the structural equation model and divided it into adaptive cognitive emotional control and maladaptive cognitive emotional control. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, there was a significant correlation between mothers psychological control and smart-phone addiction tendency. Especially, mother s psychological control factors were highly correlated with criticism. On the other hand, mothers psychological control did not have a statistically significant effect on adaptive cognitive emotional regulation, but statistically significant statistical impact on maladaptive cognitive emotional control strategy. Second, maladaptive cognitive emotional regulation strategies have a correlative effect on the tendency to addicted to smart-phone. Among them, there was a strong correlation between the accusations of other people and the weakness of smart-phone addiction. In addition, adaptive cognitive emotional regulation strategies have a statistically significant negative impact on the tendency to addicted to smart-phones. Third, as a result of the mediating effects of the adaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategy and the maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategy, the partial mediation effect of the maladaptive cognitive emotional control strategy in the path from the mother s psychological control to the smartphone addiction tendency was significant. The results of this study suggest that the higher the perceived mother s psychological control, increases the maternal perception of maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation and the tendency of addiction of smart-phone is increased. It is meaningful to provide empirical evidence of parental control and understanding of maternal and emotional control of mothers psychological controls by identifying the relationship between mother and child s emotional control and emotional awareness of the tendency of mothers to influence their addiction to older adults. 본 연구는 초등학생이 지각한 어머니의 심리적 통제와 스마트폰 중독 경향성과의 관계에서 인지적 정서조절의 매개효과를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. 이를 위해 서울의 초등학생 487명을 대상으로 연구를 실시하였으며, 측정도구로는 청소년용 스마트폰 중독 경향성, 초등학생이 지각한 어머니의 심리적 통제, 인지적 정서조절의 세 가지 영역에 대해 질문하는 자기보고식 설문지를 활용하였다. 수집된 자료를 바탕으로 SPSS 23.0 통계 프로그램과 Mplus7을 이용하여 분석하였다. 초등학생이 지각한 어머니의 심리적 통제와 인지적 정서조절전략 그리고 스마트폰 중독 경향성 측정 변인의 일반적 경향을 살펴보기 위해 기술통계분석, 각 변인들의 관련성을 알아보기 위한 상관분석을 하였고, 구조적 관계를 알아보기 위하여 구조방정식 모형을 추정하고 적응적 인지적 정서조절과 부적응적 인지적 정서조절로 나누어 매개효과를 검정하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 주요 변인들 간 상관관계를 분석한 결과 어머니의 심리적 통제와 스마트폰 중독경향성은 유의미한 상관이 있고 특히 어머니의 심리적 통제 요인 중 인신공격이 높은 상관이 있음이 확인되었다. 한편 어머니의 심리적 통제는 적응적 인지적 정서조절전략에는 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 주지 못한 반면 부적응적 인지적 정서조절전략에는 통계적으로 유의한 정적 영향을 주었다. 둘째, 부적응적 인지적 정서조절전략은 스마트폰 중독 경향성에 정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그 중에서도 타인비난과 파국화가 스마트폰 중독 경향성과 정적인 상관이 나타났다. 또한 적응적인 인지적 정서조절 전략은 스마트폰 중독 경향성에 통계적으로 유의한 부적인 영향을 보였다. 셋째, 적응적 인지적 정서조절전략과 부적응적 인지적 정서조절전략을 나누어 매개 효과를 각각 살펴 본 결과, 어머니의 심리적 통제에서 스마트폰 중독 경향성으로 가는 경로에 부적응적 인지적 정서조절전략의 부분매개효과가 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 종합해보면, 지각된 어머니의 심리적 통제가 높을수록 부적응적 인지정서조절이 증가하고 스마트폰 중독 경향성이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 초등학교 고학년 학생들의 스마트폰 중독 경향성에 영향을 미치는 어머니의 심리적 통제와 부적응적 인지정서조절의 매개효과의 관계를 밝힘으로써 스마트폰 과다 사용 예방 및 중재 프로그램 개발에서 자녀측면에서의 접근 방법과 어머니의 심리적 통제에 대한 이해를 도울 수 있는 경험적 증거를 제공하고, 부모교육의 기초자료를 제공하였다는 의의가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the mediatory effect of ambivalence-over-emotional expression with regards to the influence of perceived psychological parental control on emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents. For this particular study, a survey was conducted targeting middle school students in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Jeolla Province. Among the total 308 samples were used in this particular study. The questionnaires included Psychological Control Scale-Youth Self-Report(PCS-YSR), Korean Youth Self-Report(K-YSR), and Ambivalence over Emotional Expressiveness Questionnaire(AEQ). The collected data were analyzed using correlations and structural equation modeling. The conclusions from this study are as follows:First, there was a significant correlation among perceived psychological parental control, ambivalence-over-emotional expression, and emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents. Specifically, the positive correlation appeared between perceived psychological parental control and emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents, between ambivalence-over-emotional expression and emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents, and between perceived psychological parental control and ambivalence-over-emotional expression. Second, ambivalence-over-emotional expression showed a partially mediating effect regarding the influence perceived psychological parental control had on emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents. Consequently, these results can expand the scope of understanding on perceived psychological parental control, which in turn affects emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents. Furthermore, the mediatory effect of ambivalence-over-emotional expression on the two factors is a new finding that has not yet been explored. 본 연구의 목적은 지각된 부모의 심리적 통제가 청소년 자녀의 정서ㆍ행동 문제에 미치는 영향에 대해서 정서표현양가성이 매개하는지를 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 서울, 경기, 전라도 3지역의 중학생 총 308명을 대상으로 심리통제 척도(PCS-YSR), 청소년 정서ㆍ행동 문제 척도(K-YSR), 정서표현양가성 질문지(AEQ)를 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS와 AMOS 프로그램을 이용하여 상관관계와 구조모형을 살펴보았다. 본 연구를 통해 얻은 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 지각된 부모의 심리적 통제, 정서표현양가성, 청소년의 정서ㆍ행동 문제 간의 유의미한 상관이 나타났다. 구체적으로 지각된 부모의 심리적 통제와 청소년의 정서ㆍ행동 문제는 정적인 상관을 보였고, 정서표현양가성과 청소년의 정서ㆍ행동 문제도 정적인 상관을 나타냈으며, 지각된 부모의 심리적 통제와 정서표현양가성도 정적상관을 나타냈다. 둘째, 지각된 부모의 심리적 통제가 청소년의 정서ㆍ행동문제에 미치는 영향에 정서표현양가성이 부분 매개 하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 청소년기의 정서ㆍ행동 문제에 있어 부모의 심리적 통제에 대한 이해를 확장시켰으며, 정서표현양가성에 대한 매개효과를 밝혔다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effects of emotional clarity and ambivalence over emotional expression and their sequential mediating effects over emotional expression on the effects of maternal psychological control on interpersonal problems perceived by university students. For this purpose, data were collected from male and female university students enrolled in four-year universities in the Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon regions. A total of 292 participants completed the online survey, and the collected data were analyzed using SPSS PROCESS Macro Model 6. The main results of the analysis were as follows: First, emotional clarity showed a significant mediating effect on the relationship between maternal psychological control and interpersonal problems. Second, ambivalence over emotional expression showed a significant mediating effect on the relationship between maternal psychological control and interpersonal problems. Third, emotional clarity and ambivalence over emotional expression showed a significant sequential mediation effect on the relationship between maternal psychological control and interpersonal problems. This study demonstrated the sequential mediating effects of two emotional variables, emotional clarity and ambivalence over emotional expression, on the effects of maternal psychological control on interpersonal problems perceived by university students and found that maternal psychological control continues to have a negative effect even after the children become university students. This suggests that counseling effectiveness can be enhanced by providing emotional interventions to increase emotional clarity and decrease ambivalence over emotional expression for university students who experience more interpersonal problems due to maternal psychological control.

Background/Objectives: This study investigated the effects of parents’ psychological symptoms under COVID-19 and emotional reappraisal on young children's aggression. Methods: A total of 210 fathers and 216 mothers of 3-5-year-old children across the country participated in this study. A path model was tested using the AMOS 22.0 program. Bootstrapping methods were used to determine the statistical significance of the indirect effects of the parameters. Results: First, fathers’ psychological symptoms under COVID-19 had direct effects on their emotional reappraisal, parental control, and children’s overt and emotional aggression. Fathers’ emotional reappraisal had direct effects on their psychological and behavioral control. Fathers’ psychological symptoms affected children’s overt and emotional aggression while their behavioral control affected children’s overt aggression. Second, mothers’ psychological symptoms under COVID-19 had direct effects on their emotional reappraisal and psychological control and children’s overt and emotional aggression. Mothers’ emotional reappraisal had direct effects on their psychological and behavioral control. Mothers’ psychological symptoms affected children’s overt and emotional aggression while their behavioral control affected children’s overt aggression. Third, fathers’ and mothers’ psychological symptoms under COVID-19 had indirect effects on children’s overt and emotional aggression through emotional reappraisal and parental control. Conclusion/Implications: The results of the current study highlight the significance of intervention involving emotional reappraisal in reducing parents’ psychological symptoms under COVID-19. In addition, this study suggests that interventions should focus not only on parental psychological control but also on behavioral control through parent education programs and counseling to assuage children's aggression.

중학생의 미술표현능력, 미술감상능력, 심리적 안녕감, 자기효능감이 정서조절에 미치는 영향

박외영 ( Woe-young Park ),문승한 ( Sung-han Moon ) 아시아문화학술원 2017 인문사회 21 Vol.8 No.5

본 연구는 중학생의 미술표현능력과 미술감상능력 심리적 안녕감 자기효능감이 정서조절에 미치는 상대적 영향력 차이를 분석하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 경상남도에 소재한 중학교에 재학 중인 중학생 494명을 대상으로 조사하였으며, 본 연구의 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 정서조절 전체에는 자기효능 중 자기조절 효능감이 가장 크고, 다음에 심리적 안녕감 중 대인관계의 영향력이 크다. 따라서 중학생의 정서조절 향상을 위해서는 자신의 자기조절 효능감의 증대와 대인관계의 개선에 중점을 두어야 한다. 둘째, 정서조절에 미치는 심리적 안녕감 및 자기효능감의 효과는 정서조절의 유형에 따라 차이가 있다. 따라서 능동적 정서조절력을 향상시키기 위해서는 과제달성을 위해 자기 판단, 자기 관찰인 인지과정과 자기반응 동기과정을 잘 사용할 수 있는 효능기대감인 자기조절 효능감을 훈련하며, 과제난이도 선호에 적극적 태도를 길러 줄 필요가 있다. 셋째, 회피 정서조절에는 자기효능 중 자신감과 심리적 안녕감 중 삶의 목적이 그 영향력은 크지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 중학생의 삶의 목적 설정에 대한 교육과 자신감 향상이 필요하다. 넷째, 지지추구적 정서조절에는 심리적 안녕감 중 대인관계와 자기효능 중 조절효능이 유의미하게 영향을 주고 있다. 따라서 지지추구적 정서조절력을 향상시키기 위해서도 자기조절 효능감의 훈련이 필요하다. With a view to analyzing the correlations between the art expressive ability, appreciation ability, psychological well-being, and self-efficacy of adolescents and their emotional control and relative differences in the effects of the foregoing factors on the emotional control, in this study, a survey was conducted 494 middle school students in middle schools located in Gyeongsangnam-do. The conclusions based on the results and discussions of this study are as follows. First, self control efficacy among the sub factors of self efficacy has the largest effect on the entire emotional control followed by interpersonal relationships among the sub factors of psychological well-being. Therefore, to improve the emotional control of middle school students, we should focus on improving self-control efficacy and interpersonal relationships. Second, the effects of psychological well-being and self-efficacy on emotional control differ according to the type of emotional control. Therefore, to improve active emotional control, training on self-control efficacy, which is efficacy expectation that enables using cognitive processes that are self-judgment and self-observation and self-response motivational processes well is necessary for task accomplishment and attitudes active for preference for task difficulty levels should be fostered. Third, evasive-distributed emotional control is negatively affected by self-confidence and the purpose of life, education of middle school students on the establishment of the purpose of life and improvement of self-confidence are necessary. Fourth, training on self-control efficacy training is necessary to improve support seeking emotional control and training to improve interpersonal relationships is also necessary.

이혜원,박혜경,이옥경 한국심리학회 산하 한국발달심리학회 2015 한국심리학회지 발달 Vol.28 No.3

This study investigated the influence of children's effortful control and maternal emotion-related parenting behavior on emotion regulation of children. The Coping with Children’s Negative Emotions Scale (CCNES), in which mothers provide self-reports of their emotion-related child-rearing attitude, was translated into a brief Korean version that was composed of 28 items. Further, children’s effortful control, maternal emotion- related parenting behavior, and emotion regulation of children were measured by mothers’ self-reports, a behavior experiment, and behavior observation of 68 pairs of 3–5-year-old children and their mothers. The main results were as follows: first, attention focusing, inhibitory control and attention shift of children's effortful control were positively correlated with emotion regulation(ERC). Inhibitory control of children's effortful control was negatively correlated with down-regulation of emotion regulation(MSSB) and attention shift of children's effortful control positively correlated with failure of MSSB. The emotion-focused reaction and expressive encouragement dimensions of the CCNES were positively correlated with ERC, and the distress dimension of CCNES was negatively with ERC. Second, attention shift and inhibitory control of effortful control and the problem‧emotion-focused reactions dimension of the CCNES positively predicted ERC. Inhibitory control of effortful control negatively predicted down-regulation of MSSB, and attention shift of effortful control negatively did exaggeration of MSSB. Further, inhibitory control of effortful control (“Simon Says” task) negatively predicted exaggeration of MSSB, and inhibitory control of effortful control (delay of gratification task) positively predicted performance of Disappointing Present. Study limitations and future research directions were discussed. 본 연구에서는 유아의 통제노력과 어머니의 정서관련 양육행동이 유아의 정서조절에 미치는 영향을 탐색했다. 3-5세 유아와 어머니 68쌍을 대상으로 유아의 통제노력과 정서조절, 어머니의 정서관련 양육행동을 어머니가 보고한 설문지, 유아 행동실험과 유아 행동관찰을 통해 측정했다. 그 결과 첫째, 어머니가 보고한 유아의 통제노력 중 주의집중, 억제통제와 주의전환은 어머니가 보고한 정서조절과 정적 상관이 있었다. 어머니가 보고한 유아의 통제노력 중 억제통제는 맥아더 이야기꾸미기의 과잉억제와, 유아의 통제노력 중 주의전환은 맥아더 이야기꾸미기의 과장표현과 모두 부적 상관이 있었다. 또한 어머니가 보고한 정서관련 양육행동 중 지지반응인 문제․정서초점과 표현격려 반응은 어머니가 보고한 정서조절과 정적 상관, 비지지반응인 고통감은 어머니가 보고한 정서조절과 부적 상관이 있었다. 둘째, 유아의 통제노력과 어머니의 정서관련 양육행동이 유아의 정서조절에 미치는 영향을 검증한 결과, 어머니가 보고한 유아의 통제노력 중 주의전환 및 억제통제, 정서관련 양육행동 중 문제․정서초점이 어머니가 보고한 정서조절을 정적으로 설명했다. 어머니가 보고한 유아의 통제노력 중 억제통제는 맥아더 이야기꾸미기의 과잉억제를 부적으로, 유아의 통제노력 중 주의전환은 맥아더 이야기꾸미기의 과장표현을 부적으로 설명했다. 또한 실험으로 측정한 유아의 통제노력(뽀로로가 말하기)은 맥아더 이야기꾸미기의 과장표현을 부적으로, 실험으로 측정한 유아의 통제노력(만족지연시간)은 실망스러운 선물에 대한 긍정적 반응을 정적으로 설명했다. 본 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구과제가 논의되었다.

아동이 지각한 부모의 심리적 통제와 정서조절능력이 관계적 공격성에 미치는 영향에 대한 경로분석

강은영 ( Kang Eun-young ),이영애 ( Lee Young-ae ) 한국놀이치료학회 2019 한국놀이치료학회지(놀이치료연구) Vol.22 No.3

본 연구는 부모의 심리적 통제와 정서조절능력, 관계적 공격성 간의 관계와 관계적 공격성에 미치는 경로에 대해 살펴보았다. 연구를 위해 서울특별시 및 인천광역시 소재 초등학교에 재학 중인 5, 6학년 584명을 대상으로 부모의 심리적 통제 척도, 관계적 공격성 척도, 정서조절능력 척도를 사용하여 설문을 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 23.0과 AMOS 22.0을 이용하여 상관분석과 다집단 경로분석을 실시하였다. 부, 모의 심리적 통제는 정서조절능력(타인, 자신)과 부적으로 유의미한 영향을 미쳤으며, 관계적 공격성(주도적, 반응적)에는 정적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 부, 모 각각의 심리적 통제는 타인 정서조절능력을 경유하여 주도적 관계적 공격성에 통계적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 자신 정서조절능력은 모의 심리적 통제에서 반응적 관계적 공격성과의 관계만을 매개하였고, 부의 심리적 통제에서는 반응적 관계적 공격성, 주도적 관계적 공격성 모두 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 아동의 관계적 공격성에 모 보다는 부의 심리적 통제가 다양한 경로를 통해 영향을 미친다는 것을 제시하였다는 것에 의의가 있다. This study examines the relationship between parental psychological control, emotional control capabilities and relational aggression, and the path in which relational aggression is affected. The subjects consisted of 584 fifth- and sixth-grade elementary school children who attend school in Seoul or Incheon. The data was collected using questionnaires and was analyzed by means of SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 22.0. It was found that parental psychological control has a meaningful negative effect on emotional control capability(others, self), and that it has a meaningful positive effect on relational aggression(proactive, reactive). In addition, the psychological control of each parent was found to have statistical impact on proactive relational aggression via the emotional control capabilities of the other. However, self-emotional control capabilities mediated only the relationship with reactive relational aggression in terms of the mother's psychological control, and had a mediating effect in both reactive and proactive relational aggression in terms of the father's psychological control. The results of this study suggest that the father's psychological control affects children through a variety of pathways, in contrast to the mother's psychological control.

정서조절 관점에서 본 불성사상

전여정 ( Jun Yeo-jung ) 동아시아불교문화학회 2016 동아시아불교문화 Vol.0 No.27

Today, as various social problems are highlighted due to the inappropriate emotional expression, there is an imminent need to prepare diverse measures for the emotional control. This study reviewed the possibility regarding whether the Buddha-nature thought is available as the means for emotional control based on the understanding about the meaning and methodology of emotional control suggested by the psychology. First of all, after investigating the definition that explains an emotion, it tried to suggest the characteristic and list of emotions that fall into each category with the introduction of two categories of the positive and negative emotions. Additionally, it examined the necessity of emotional control and the content about an important process recognition. Above all, it is remarkable that the Buddha-nature thought performs the function of emotional control through the cognitive methodology. The teaching purpose of the Buddha-nature revealed by The Buddha-nature Theory (佛性論) is the very theoretical basis demonstrating that the Buddha-nature thought is capable of functioning as the method for the effective emotional control. According to this theory, the right understanding regarding the Buddha-nature abolishes the effects of five misconducts(五種過失) and creates the effects of five merits(五種功德). This fact is not different from the goals of emotional control which psychologists know. The latter purposes to reduce the negative emotion and enhance the positive one. Therefore, in theory, the elimination of the effects of five misconducts accords with the reduction of the negative emotion, and the creation of the effects of five merits does with the increase of the positive one. Consequently, the Buddha-nature thought is largely useful as the method of emotional control owing to its capability of decreasing the negative emotion, and effectively fostering the positive one. This study is expected to serve as such a basic research as searches the methodology for the therapeutic approach.

Designing an Emotional Intelligent Controller for IPFC to Improve the Transient Stability Based on Energy Function

Jafari, Ehsan,Marjanian, Ali,Solaymani, Soodabeh,Shahgholian, Ghazanfar The Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers 2013 Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology Vol.8 No.3

The controllability and stability of power systems can be increased by Flexible AC Transmission Devices (FACTs). One of the FACTs devices is Interline Power-Flow Controller (IPFC) by which the voltage stability, dynamic stability and transient stability of power systems can be improved. In the present paper, the convenient operation and control of IPFC for transient stability improvement are considered. Considering that the system's Lyapunov energy function is a relevant tool to study the stability affair. IPFC energy function optimization has been used in order to access the maximum of transient stability margin. In order to control IPFC, a Brain Emotional Learning Based Intelligent Controller (BELBIC) and PI controller have been used. The utilization of the new controller is based on the emotion-processing mechanism in the brain and is essentially an action selection, which is based on sensory inputs and emotional cues. This intelligent control is based on the limbic system of the mammalian brain. Simulation confirms the ability of BELBIC controller compared with conventional PI controller. The designing results have been studied by the simulation of a single-machine system with infinite bus (SMIB) and another standard 9-buses system (Anderson and Fouad, 1977).
