상담자의 사회계층 편향성과 내담자 사회계층 배경에 따른 내담자 평가와 역전이 반응

Counselors’ Evaluations of Clients and Countertransference Responses based on Counselors’ Social Class Biases and Clients’ Social Class Backgrounds

초록

본 연구는 다문화 상담의 관점에서 상담자의 사회계층 편향성 수준과 내담자의 사회계층 배경에 따라 상담자의 내담자에 대한 평가와 역전이 반응에 차이가 있는지를 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 상담자 382명에게 사회계층을 두 가지로 조작한 가상의 내담자의 접수면접지를 제시하여 내담자 평가와 역전이 반응을 측정하였다. 그리고 상담자의 사회계층 편향성 수준에 따라 집단을 구분하여 이원분산분석과 다변량분산분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째 상담자의 사회계층 편향성에 따라 내담자 평가와 역전이 반응의 차이가 유의미하였다. 사회계층 편향성이 높은 상담자 집단은 사회계층 편향성이 낮은 상담자 집단에 비해 내담자를 덜 호의적으로 평가하였으며, 내담자에게 지배 및 적대 역전이 감정을 더 많이 경험하였다. 둘째, 내담자의 사회계층 배경에 따라 상담자의 내담자 평가는 의미 있는 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 셋째, 내담자 평가에 있어서 상담자의 사회계층 편향성과 내담자의 사회계층 배경 사이의 상호작용 효과는 유의하지 않았지만, ‘지배’ 역전이 반응에 있어서는 상호작용 효과가 확인되었다. 사회계층 편향성이 높은 상담자는 사회계층 편향성이 낮은 상담자에 비해서 중산층 내담자가 하류층 내담자보다 지배적이라고 느끼는 것이 밝혀졌다. 마지막으로 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 본 연구의 제한점 및 의의에 대해 논의하였다.

Abstract

This study examined whether there were differences in counselors’ evaluations of clients and countertransference responses based on counselors’ social class biases and clients’ social class backgrounds. Two intake forms for mock clients with distinct backgrounds were presented to 382 counselors, whose evaluations of the mock clients and countertransference responses were analyzed. The results indicated that counselors’ evaluations and countertransference responses differed significantly based on the level of bias. Counselors with high bias evaluated clients less favorably and experienced more ‘dominant’ and ‘hostile’ countertransference responses. However, counselors’ evaluations did not differ significantly based on client background. There was no significant interaction effect between counselors’ bias and clients’ background. An interaction effect was found for the ‘dominance’ countertransference response. Counselors with high levels of bias appeared to assume that middle-class clients were more dominant than lower class clients, as compared to counselors with low levels of bias. Limitations and implications are discussed.
