초록
본 연구는 산업재해를 당한 근로자들이 경험하는 심리적 문제들을 현상학적이고 질적으로 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 수도권에 거주하는 8명의 산재환자를 대상으로 면접과 분석이 이루어졌다. 참여자 중 5명이 남성이고 3명이 여성이었으며, 연령은 32세에서 66세까지였다. 자료 수집은 참가자로부터 서면으로 동의를 받은 후 진행되었고, Schütze(1984)의 이야기식 면접방식으로 진행되었으며 Giorgi의 현상학적 분석절차를 따랐다. 산업재해에 따르는 현실적인 문제로 요양 과정에서의 문제와 요양 종결 후 문제에 대한 스트레스가 도출되었으며, 심리적 문제는 정서적 고통, 인지 및 정서적 체험 및 인지적 문제로 구분되었다. 정서적 고통은 분노, 우울 및 공포로 표현되었다. 산재환자는 인지적이고 정서적 체험으로 악몽을 경험하고, 자살사고와 가족이나 동료들에 대한 미안한 생각을 하고 있었다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 추후연구와 건강심리학적 중재를 위한 논의와 시사점을 제시하였다.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate qualitative psychological problems, which are experienced by injured workers, according to phenomenological methods. Interview data from eight injured workers, living in Seoul and the suburbs, were analyzed. Participants composed of 5 male and 3 female patients who had industrial accidents, which ages ranging from 32 to 66 years old. They received a series of recorded Schütze’s narrative interviews after obtaining their informed consents. Collected data were analyzed with Giorgi’s phenomenological analysis procedures. The analysis highlight their problems when experiencing medical treatments and the stresses on uncertainties of future life after medical treatments and convalescences due to the reality of industrial accidents. And, psychological problems were divided into 3 domains, such as emotional torments, cognitive and emotional experiences, and cognitive problems. Emotional torments were being expressed as anger, depression, and fear. Injured workers had nightmares as their cognitive and emotional experiences, where they showed potentials of suicides and regard themselves to be blamed by family members and co-workers. These results were hereby discussed for further studies and some implications are suggested for healthy psychological interventions for injured Korean workers.
