본 연구에서는 668명의 사별을 경험한 성인의 지속비애 증상의 패턴과 지속비애 증상과 분류에 영향을 미치는 인구사회학적 변인과 사별 관련 변인을 탐색하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 측정도구로 지속비애 증상 척도를 사용하였으며 지속비애 증상의 패턴을 확인하기 위해 잠재 프로파일 분석(LPA)을 실시하여 어떠한 집단이 형성되는지를 살펴보았다. 이어서 집단 분류에 영향을 미치는 인구사회학적 변인과 사별 관련 변인을 확인하기 위해 위계적 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 지속비애 증상의 잠재 프로파일 분석 결과는 지속비애 증상의 적응 집단과 고위험 집단으로 분류되었고, 두 집단은 모두 ‘분리 디스트레스’보다 ‘외상성 디스트레스’가 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이러한 적응집단과 고위험 집단의 분류에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴보았을 때, 인구사회학적 변인에서는 종교가 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 사별 관련 변인에서는 사별 이후 기간과 사망 당시 고인의 연령, 고인과의 관계, 사별 원인이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 논의와 후속연구에 대한 제언을 하였다.
The objective of this study was to investigate the sociodemographic and bereavement-related variables that affect the patterns of prolonged grief symptoms of Korean adults who had lost their loved ones. A Prolonged Grief Disorder Scale (PG-13) was used and Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was performed to identify pattern of prolonged grief symptoms. Also, a hierarchical logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify sociodemographic variables and bereavement-related variables that influence grouping. The results were as follows. Two different classes were found: a resilient class and, a prolonged grief symptoms class. These groups showed that traumatic stress was higher than separation stress. Significant class differences were found in religion, time since the event, the deceased's age at death, relationship with deceased, and cause of death. Based on these results, the implication and limitations were discussed.
