본 연구는 지속 유대 척도(Continuing Bonds Scale: CBS)를 한국어로 번안하여 한국판 지속 유대 척도(이하 K-CBS)의 요인구조, 신뢰도 및 타당도를 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 연구 1에서 가족을 포함하여 친밀관계에 있던 사람과 사별한 경험이 있는 성인을 대상(293명)으로 탐색적 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 10개 문항의 단일 요인 구조가 도출되었으며, 전체 변량의 52.59%를 설명하였다. K-CBS의 내적 합치도는 .92로 양호하였다. 연구 2에서 동일한 조건의 새로운 표본(200명)을 대상으로 확인적 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 표준화 회귀계수 추정치는 모두 적절하였지만 다중상관자승치가 .40 미만인 한 문항이 있어서 이것을 제거하고 9문항을 최종 문항으로 결정하였다. 9문항 단일 요인에 대한 모형 적합도는 양호한 수준으로 나타났다. 관련 변인과의 관계를 보면, K-CBS는 애도반응과 정적 상관을 보이고, 우울과도 약한 정적 상관을 보였으나 애도반응을 통제했을 때, K-CBS는 오히려 우울감소를 예측하였다. 외상 후 성장과는 유의한 정적 상관을 나타냈다. 아울러 K-CBS 점수는 사별 대상과 상실 예상 여부에 따른 집단에서 차이가 유의하게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 K-CBS가 지속 유대를 신뢰롭고 타당하게 측정하는 도구임을 보여준다. 끝으로 본 연구의 의의와 제한점, 추후 연구방향에 대해 논의하였다.
The present study aimed at examining the factor structure, reliability and validity of the Korean version of the Continuing Bonds Scale (K-CBS). In study 1, exploratory factor analysis was administered to 293 bereaved adults who had experienced the death of a loved one, and it revealed a single factor structure with 10 items that explained 52.59% of the total variance. The K-CBS showed good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha of .92. In study 2, confirmatory factor analysis in a different sample of 200 bereaved adults indicated satisfactory standardized regression weights of all items. However, one item had a squared multiple correlation less than .40, hence, this item was discarded, and 9 items remained for the final scale. The single factor model with 9 items displayed a good fit. The K-CBS had strong positive correlation with grief symptoms, and weak positive correlation with depression. After controlling for grief, however, the K-CBS was predictive of a decrease in depression. The K-CBS was positively associated with posttraumatic growth. In addition, significant differences in scores of the K-CBS were shown among groups based on the deceased's relation to the bereaved and expectedness of loss. These results suggest that the K-CBS is a reliable and valid instrument to measure continuing bonds. Finally, implications, limitations, and directions for future research were discussed.
