다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study validated the mediating effect of codependency moderated by mindfulness on the impact of the growing parentification experiences perceived by adult children of alcoholics on depression. To validate this, the study conducted an online survey targeting 294 adult children of alcoholics in South Korea. The SPSS PROCESS Macro was used to sequentially analyze mediating effects, moderating effects, and moderated mediation. Bootstrap validation was conducted to confirm the statistical significance of the analysis results. As a result, the validation of research hypotheses yielded the following findings: Firstly, the parentification in adult children of alcoholics had a positive effect on depression. Secondly, the complete mediating effect of codependency was confirmed in the relationship between the parentification and depression in adult children of alcoholics. Thirdly, the moderating effect of mindfulness was identified in the process in which the parentification experiences affected codependency. Fourthly, the significant moderated mediation effect of mindfulness was reported in the process in which the parentification experiences affected depression through codependency. Specifically, it was confirmed that higher levels of mindfulness reduced the positive impact of parentification experiences on codependency as well as the mediating effect of codependency. Based on these findings, the basis for counseling intervention were suggested by identifying the psychological mechanism of adult children of alcoholics who complain of high depression and confirming the role of mindfulness as a protective factor.
