성인애착과 관계만족 간의 관계에서 자기효과와 상대방효과: 부정 정서 및 행동 표출의 매개효과와 교제기간의 조절된 매개효과 = Actor and Partner Effects of Adult Attachment and Relationship Satisfaction: The Mediating Effect of Negative Emotion and Behavior Expression and the Moderated Mediating Effect of Length of Relationship

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aimed to examine the mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression and the moderated mediating effect of relationship length in the link between adult attachment and relationship satisfaction. We hypothesized that attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance would have negative effects on relationship satisfaction through negative emotion and behavior expression and this mediating effect would be moderated by relationship length. Using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM) we analyzed 274 heterosexual dating couple data. We found that woman’s attachment anxiety predicted her own and her partner’s relationship dissatisfaction through her negative emotion and behavior expression. Man’s attachment anxiety predicted his partner’s relationship dissatisfaction through her negative emotion and behavior expression. Furthermore, man’s mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression in the link between own attachment anxiety and own relationship satisfaction was moderated by relationship length. That is, the mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression was stronger as he stayed longer in his relationship. This study found that adult attachment as a trait and relationship schema can explain couple’s relationship satisfaction through negative emotion and behavioral expression, and how relationship length moderated this mediating effect.

이 연구는 연인을 대상으로 성인애착과 관계만족 간의 관계에서 부정 정서 및 행동 표출의 매개효과와 교제기간의 조절된 매개효과를 밝히기 위해 실시되었다. 성인애착의 두 차원인 애착불안과 애착회피는 부정 정서 및 행동 표출을 매개로 관계만족을 부적으로 예측하고 교제기간이 부정 정서 및 행동 표출의 매개효과를 조절할 것으로 예상했다. 이성교제 중인 미혼 커플 274쌍의 설문 자료를 자기-상대방 상호의존 모형(APIM)으로 분석했다. 매개효과 분석 결과, 여성의 애착불안은 자신의 높은 부정 정서 및 행동 표출을 통해 자신과 남성의 낮은 관계만족을 예측했고, 남성의 애착불안은 여성의 높은 부정 정서 및 행동 표출을 통해 여성의 낮은 관계만족을 예측했다. 교제기간의 조절된 매개효과 분석 결과, 교제기간은 남성의 애착불안과 관계만족 사이 남성의 부정 정서 및 행동 표출의 매개효과를 조절하는 것으로 나타나 교제기간이 길 때 애착불안과 관계만족 사이 부적인 관계에서 부정 정서 및 행동 표출의 매개효과가 더 큰 것을 확인했다. 이 연구는 개인의 성격 특성이자 관계 도식인 성인애착이 관계 내 부정적 갈등대처행동인 부정 정서 및 행동 표출을 통해 관계만족을 설명하고 교제기간에 따라 매개효과의 강도가 달라질 수 있음을 밝혔다.
