초록

본 연구의 목적은 정신건강과 신체건강 간 관계를 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위해 감기 취약성과 같은 일반적 신체건강 양상이 정신건강 유형에 따라 차이가 나는 지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 긍정심리학적 관점에 기초한 Keyes(2002)의 모델에 따라 정신건강 집단을 정신적 웰빙척도(K-MHC-SF)(임영진, 고영건, 신희천, 조용래, 2010) 및 한국형 정신장애 척도(K-MDI)(임영진 등, 2010)를 사용해 분류하고, 분류된 집단에 따라 감기 취약성 및 스트레스 수준과 같은 일반적 신체적 건강 관련 변인들이 유의미한 차이를 보이는 지를 살펴보았다. 연구 참여자는 대학생3,478명이었으며 이들이 질문지에 응답한 내용을 분석하였다. 일원변량분석결과, 정신건강 유형에따라 일반적 신체건강 변인들에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 사후분석 결과, 정신건강 유형 중 특히정신적으로 번영한 집단이 정신장애 집단 뿐 아니라, 중간 수준의 정신건강 집단 및 정신적 쇠약집단에 비해 감기에 걸린 횟수 및 감기 심각도 등 일반적 신체건강 관련 변인들에서 상대적으로더 양호한 결과를 나타냈다. 이러한 결과는 정신건강 유형과 일반적 신체적 건강 간 연관성을 시사하는 동시에 정신적 번영을 추구하는 것의 중요성을 보여준다. 끝으로 본 연구의 시사점과 제한점 및 추후 연구에 대한 제언을 논의하였다.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between mental health and general physical health. According to the mental health model of Keyes (2002), based on positive psychology, we classified the study’s participants into mental health groups using the K-MHC-SF (Korean Mental Health Continuum-Short Form) and the K-MDI (Korean Mental Disorder Inventory). We then investigated whether the mental health groups differ in general physical health variables such as common cold susceptibility or stress level. The participants of the present study were 3,478 Korean college students. A one-way ANOVA revealed significant differences in various general physical health related variables based on the relationship to various mental health groups. Post-hoc analysis indicated that the mentally flourishing group was superior compared to the middle level or the languishing group, as well as the mental disorder group, regarding general physical health variables. An example of this is that the mentally flourishing group gets less colds. These findings suggested the significant relationship between mental health and general physical health, and the importance of psychological flourishing. Last, the implications and limitations of the study and suggestions for future research were discussed.
