삶의 만족도와 정서적 안녕감에 대한 영역 만족도의 상대적 예측력: 한국과 캐나다 대학생 비교 연구 = The relative contribution of domain satisfaction on life satisfaction and hedonic balance: A comparative study of Korean and Canadian university students

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Previous studies have examined the relationship between domain satisfaction and life satisfaction. However, a comprehensive investigation of satisfaction with multiple domains and their relative contributions to life satisfaction and hedonic balance are missing in the literature. And most studies were conducted in English speaking countries and only a few cross-cultural studies have been conducted. In the current research, we compared Korean and European Canadian university students to examine how domain satisfactions (satisfaction with healthy lifestyles, family relationships, appearance, financial situation, academic performance) are associated with life satisfaction and hedonic balance. We then examined the relative contributions of people’s satisfaction ratings on the life domains to their life satisfaction and hedonic balance. Positive correlations were observed between satisfaction with each of the five life domains, and life satisfaction and hedonic balance across the two cultural groups. Interestingly, satisfactions with healthy lifestyles was the dominant predictor of Koreans’ life satisfaction and hedonic balance. Satisfaction with appearance was the dominant predictor of European Canadians’ life satisfaction and hedonic balance followed by satisfaction with healthy lifestyles. Overall, these results suggest that there are common life domains that contribute to subjective well-being and that there are specific life domains that may contribute more to subjective well-being depending on the culture.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

영역 만족도와 삶의 만족도의 상관관계에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되어 왔다. 하지만 다양한 영역 만족도를 종합적으로 고려하여 개별 영역 만족도가 삶의 만족도 및 정서적 안녕감 각각에 미치는 영향력을 살펴본 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 게다가 관련 연구들은 대부분 서구 문화권에서 진행되어 왔으며 문화비교 연구는 많이 이뤄지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 각 영역 만족도(건강한 라이프스타일, 가족관계, 외모, 재정상황, 학업성적에 대한 만족도)가 개인의 삶의 만족도 및 정서적 안녕감과 어떤 관계를 가지는지 살펴봄과 동시에, 문화별로 어떤 특정 영역이 삶의 만족도와 정서적 안녕감을 더 잘 예측하는지 한국과 캐나다 두 문화권의 대학생 참가자들을 대상으로 알아보았다. 그 결과, 두 문화에서 다섯 영역의 만족도는 삶의 만족도 및 정서적 안녕감과 정적 상관관계를 보였다. 흥미롭게도, 다섯 영역을 종합적으로 고려했을 때, 문화별로 삶의 만족도와 정서적 안녕감을 예측하는 가장 중요한 요인들에 차이가 있었다. 한국인의 경우 건강한 라이프스타일이 삶의 만족도와 정서적 안녕감을 가장 잘 설명하는 요인으로 나타났다. 반면, 유럽계 캐나다인의 경우 외모 만족도가 삶의 만족도와 정서적 안녕감 모두를 예측하는 가장 중요한 요인으로 나타났으며, 다음으로는 건강한 라이프스타일 만족도가 행복 요소들을 가장 잘 설명하였다. 본 연구 결과는 개인의 주관적 안녕감의 예측에 있어, 문화 공통적으로 영향을 끼치는 삶의 영역이 있으며, 더불어 문화의 특성에 따라 더 좋은 예측력을 가지는 삶의 영역도 있음을 보여준다.
