외현적/암묵적 의존성과 우울과의 관계 = The Relationship between Explicit/Implicit Dependency and Depression

국문 초록 (Abstract)

의존성은 우울을 야기하는 대표적인 성격 특질로 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 의존성과 우울의 관계에 대한 비일관적인 연구 결과들이 제시되면서 혼란을 야기하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 그동안 의존성과 우울의 관계에 대한 선행 연구들에서는 주로 자기보고식 측정 방법으로 외현적 의존성만을 측정했다는 점에 주목하고 이러한 비일관적인 연구 결과에 암묵적 의존성이 혼재변인으로 작용했을 것이라고 예상하였다. 이에 신뢰도와 타당도가 검증된 인지적 연합 패러다임인 SC-IAT로 암묵적 의존성을 함께 측정하여 암묵적 의존성이 우울을 예측하는 데 어떠한 정보가가 있는지 탐색해 보고자 하였다. 특히, 남성의 경우 자기보고식 검사에서는 성 고정관념으로 인하여 의존성을 방어적으로 보고하는 데 반해 의존성을 암묵적으로 측정할 시에는 이러한 보고 편향을 감소시킬 수 있다고 보고 성별을 주요한 변인으로 함께 고려하였다. 그 결과 외현적 의존성과 암묵적 의존성이 독립적으로 존재하며, 외현적 의존성과 암묵적 의존성이 우울감에 미치는 영향은 성별로 상이한 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 여성의 경우 외현적 의존성과 암묵적 의존성이 모두 높을 경우에만 유의미하게 우울하였으며, 높은 외현적 의존성을 보고하는 경우라고 하더라도 암묵적 의존성이 높지 않으면 우울감이 높지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 남성의 경우 예상과는 달리 외현적 의존성만이 우울을 예측함에 있어 주요 변인이었으며 암묵적 의존성은 큰 영향력을 미치지 못하였다. 비록 가설의 일부만이 지지되었으나 이러한 연구 결과는 암묵적 의존성이 지니는 잠재적인 가치를 보여주며 향후 의존성을 비롯한 다양한 성격적 특성을 측정함에 있어 암묵적 영역에 대한 관심과 측정이 필요함을 시사한다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구의 의의와 한계점 및 후속 연구에 대하여 논의하였다.

The relationship between dependent personality traits and depression has been widely studied in the field of psychology. However, the existing evidence is mixed and often contradictory, obscuring the precise nature of this relationship. Given that the most common method of measuring the construct of dependency has been to administer self-report instruments, it is possible that implicit dependency, another parameter of dependency that is distinct from explicit dependency measured via self-report, is confounding these results. The current study aimed to clarify the relationship between dependency and depression by comparing the effect of implicit and explicit dependency. Implicit dependency was measured via the Single Category-Implicit Association Test (SC-IAT), a test of implicit personality that has shown to have good validity and reliability in previous studies. In addition, we examined the effect of gender on this relationship, given the potential role of gender stereotype that may make male participants show lower levels of dependency when measured through self-report (vs. SC-IAT). Results showed that implicit and explicit dependency indeed had separate and distinct relationships, and the relationships depends on participants’ gender. Among female participants, increased explicit dependency predicted depression only when implicit dependency was also elevated. In contrast, explicit dependency predicted depression regardless of the level of implicit dependency in male participants. These findings suggest that implicit and explicit dependency may be separate parameters capturing different aspects of dependent personality traits, further supporting the need to consider the implicit aspect of personality in personality assessment research. Implications and limitations of the current findings and directions for future research are discussed.
