본 연구에서는 자기자비와 사회불안의 관계를 살펴보고 자기자비 심상 처치가 사회불안에 미치는 치료 효과를 탐색하였다. 연구 1에서는 대학생 및 대학원생 236명을 대상으로 설문연구를 실시하여 자기자비가 사회불안과 어떠한 관련을 맺고 있는지 확인하였다. 그 결과, 자기자비가 사회불안과 유의한 부적 상관이 있었으며, 자기자비와 사회불안의 관계를 사회불안수용이 매개하였다. 연구 2에서는 사회불안 수준이 높은 대학생 및 대학원생 32명을 자기자비 조건 또는 인지재구성 조건에 무선 할당하여 해당 처치를 일주일 동안 연습하게 하였다. 처치 후, 인지재구성 집단은 두 종류의 사회불안(관찰되거나 수행하는 상황에 대한 사회불안과 상호작용 상황에 대한 사회불안) 중 관찰되거나 수행하는 상황에 대한 사회불안이 유의하게 감소하였으나 자기자비 집단은 두 종류의 사회불안 모두 감소 경향성만을 보였다. 두 집단을 통합하여 사전-사후 변화량의 관계를 살펴본 결과, 자기자비의 변화량과 사회불안수용의 변화량이 사회불안의 변화량과 유의한 부적 상관을 나타냈다. 이를 바탕으로 본 연구의 의의와 한계점, 추후 연구를 위한 제언을 논의하였다.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of being self-compassionate on social anxiety. For this, we investigated whether self-compassion would have a negative correlation with social anxiety, and whether the efficacy of self-compassionate imagery treatment was efficacious in reducing one’s social anxiety levels. In study 1, self-reported data were collected from 236 undergraduates and graduates and used to examine the relationship between self-compassion and social anxiety. Correlation analysis demonstrated that a higher self-compassion score was related to a lower social anxiety score. The results of the mediation analysis also showed that self-compassion could have an impact on social anxiety by facilitating social anxiety acceptance. Study 2 was designed to investigate the effect of self-compassionate imagery treatment on relieving social anxiety relative to one that focuses on cognitive-restructuring. Thirty-two undergraduates and graduates with social anxiety were randomly assigned to one of two conditions(self-compassion or cognitive-restructuring) and practiced each treatment for a week. As a result, the self-compassion group showed a reduction in social anxiety, albeit a non-significant one. On the other hand, the cognitive-restructuring group demonstrated a significant reduction in anxiety about being observed and performing in front of others. After these two groups were combined and the relationship between change in self-compassion and change in social anxiety was analyzed, these two values were negatively related. Thus, the present study empirically investigated the effect of self-compassion on social anxiety and whether a brief self-compassion intervention was efficacious in improving self-compassion and relieving the symptoms of social anxiety. Finally, the implications and limitations of this study and suggestions for future studies were discussed.
