The relationship between religious orientation, religious coping and situational forgiveness

본 연구는 종교 변인이 상황적 용서에 영향을 주는지 탐색하기 위하여 수행되었다. 종교성향, 종교적 대처 그리고 상황적 용서간의 관계를 알아보기 위해 154명의 개신교 기독교인을 대상으로각 변인에 대한 척도에 답하도록 하였다. 상황적 용서는 외재적 종교 성향과 부정적 종교대처와부적 상관을 보여주었고 내재적 종교 성향과 긍정적 종교대처와 정적 상관을 보여주었다. 예외적으로 긍정적 종교적 대처는 상황적 용서와의 상관이 없었다. 상관 결과에 따라 매개 효과를 분석한 결과 외재적 종교 성향과 상황적 용서의 매개변인으로서 부정적 종교적 대처의 역할이 중요하다는 것을 밝혔다. 내재적 종교 성향은 부정적 종교적 대처와 상관이 없어 매개분석에서 제외되었다. 이러한 결과는 종교적으로 긍정적인 종교적 대처 방식을 가지고 있다고 해서 실제 삶에서용서를 하는 것은 아니며 부정적인 종교적 대처 방식은 타인을 용서하는 능력과 용서하고자 하는의지를 방해할 수 있음을 시사한다. 이 결과는 용서 증진을 위하여 용서 개입이 필요하고 부정적종교적 대처를 다루어 주는 것이 중요하다는 함의를 갖는다. 끝으로 본 연구의 의의와 한계를 논의하였다.

Abstract

The present study explored whether religious variables have effects on situational forgiveness. Using a sample of 154 Christians, this study examined the relationship between religiousness,religious coping and situational forgiveness. All religious measures were correlated with situational forgiveness, but positive religious coping was not correlated with forgiveness variable. According to the result of the correlations, we tested the mediation. Since there was no correlation between intrinsic religiousness and negative religious coping, these two variable were excluded from mediation test. Result of testing mediation indicated that negative religious coping play the role of a mediator between extrinsic religiousness and situational forgiveness. These findings have important practical implications regarding the forgiveness-religion link for Christians, suggesting that the forgiveness intervention is needed to promote to forgive effectively. Also decreasing negative religious coping might be important in forgiveness in specific transgressions.
