중년기 부부의 애착 유형에 따른 배우자에 대한 보살핌과 긍정적 환상이 결혼만족도와 주관적 안녕감에 미치는 영향 = The Effects of Attachment, Care-giving, and Positive Illusion upon Marital Satisfaction and Subjective Well-being in Middle-Aged Married Couples

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The main purpose of this study was to investigate effects of attachment, care-giving and positive illusion on marital satisfaction and subjective well-being in 105 middle-aged couples. The results can be summarized as follows. First, secure attached husbands and wives rated to their partners more positively than the other three insecure attached groups. Second, secure attached wives gave more care-giving to their husband such as in proximity, sensitive responses, and cooperation than the insecure attached wives, but secure attached husbands gave more care-giving to their wives in two areas, namely sensitive responses and cooperation, more so than the insecure attached husbands. Third, husbands and wives classified as having secure attachment showed levels of higher marital satisfaction than the three groups with insecure attachment. Fourth, secure attached wives reported both higher levels of life satisfaction and emotional well-being than the three groups of insecure attached wives, but secure attached husbands reported higher levels only in terms of emotional well-being than the three groups of insecure attached husbands. Regression analysis revealed that marital satisfaction, subjective well-being, care-giving, and positive illusion were positively affected by the secure attachment of the couples. Finally, it was found that care-giving was a mediating variable influencing marital satisfaction.
