초록
본 연구는 종교를 가진 신앙인의 종교지향, 영적 웰빙 및 주관적 웰빙 간의 관계를 탐색하고, 웰빙에 대한 종교지향과 종교적 원리주의의 상호작용을 검증하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 본 연구의 참여자는 수도권에 거주하는 신앙인 317명이었으며, 그들은 연령은 만 20세에서 81세(M=52.00, SD=11.16)까지 분포되어 있었다. 본 연구에서 사용된 심리검사는 I/E-R 종교지향척도, 종교적 원리주의척도, 영적웰빙척도, 정서빈도검사, 삶의 만족척도 및 주관적 행복척도이다. 분석 결과, 신앙인의 종교지향은 영적 웰빙과 밀접한 관계가 있었으며 주관적 웰빙과도 정적으로 관계하고 있었다. 하지만 사회적 종교지향은 영적 웰빙은 물론 주관적 웰빙과도 상관이 없는 것으로 나타났으며 실존적 웰빙 중에 의미감과는 유의한 부적 상관을 보였다. 종교적 원리주의는 영적 웰빙뿐 아니라 주관적 행복과도 정적으로 관계하고 있었다. 그러나 단계적 회귀분석은 종교적 원리주의에서 내적 종교지향 요소를 제거하면 부정정서와는 정적으로 주관적 행복과는 부적으로 관계하는 것을 보여주었다. 주관적 웰빙과 관계하는 영적 웰빙은 충족감이었는데, 종교적 웰빙에서 충족감 부분을 제하면 삶의 만족과 부적 상관이 있었다. 한편 영적 웰빙과 주관적 웰빙에는 종교지향과 종교적 원리주의의 상호작용효과가 유의하였다. 단순주효과 분석결과, 종교적 원리주의가 약한 집단에서만 종교지향 수준이 높으면 낮은 것보다 영적 웰빙 수준이 유의하게 높았고, 반대로 종교적 원리주의가 강한 집단에서만 종교지향 수준이 높으면 낮은 것보다 주관적 웰빙 수준이 유의하게 높았다. 이런 결과는 종교성 변인들이 서로 상호작용하며 웰빙에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the relationships between religious orientations, religious fundamentalism, spiritual well-being, and subjective well-being among religious people, and to examine the interaction of religious orientations and the religious fundamentalism on their well-being. The participants were 317 religious people who were living in Seoul and the suburb, whose age were ranged from 20 to 81 (M=52.00, SD=11.16). The psychological tests used in this research included the following: I/E-R, the Religious Fundamentalism Scale, the Spiritual Well-Being Scale, Emotion Frequency Test, Satisfaction with Life Scale, and Subjective Happiness Scale. Results revealed that the religious orientation was closely correlated with spiritual well-being, and it was also positively correlated with subjective well-being of religious people. However, extrinsic religious orientation with social conformity was not significantly correlated with spiritual well-being and subjective well-being, and inversely, it was negatively related to feeling of meaningfulness of existential well-being. Religious fundamentalism was positively correlated with subjective well-being, as well as spiritual well-being. Yet, results of stepwise regression analyses indicated that religious fundamentalism, as it was adjusted by intrinsic religious orientation, was positively related to negative emotion and negatively to subjective happiness. Spiritual well-being, which is related to subjective well-being, was a satisfying feeling of existential well-being. Moreover, if religious well-being was adjusted by satisfying feeling of existential well-being, it was negatively related to life satisfaction. On the other hand, interaction effects of religious orientation and the religious fundamentalism on spiritual well-being and subjective well-being. Simple main effect analyses revealed that people with higher religious orientation showed higher spiritual well-being than those with lower religious orientation in only people with lower religious fundamentalism; whereas people with higher religious orientation showed higher subjective well-being than those with lower religious orientation in only people with higher religious fundamentalism. This finding suggests that religiosity variables with interactions could affect human well-being.
