초록

본 연구는 자녀와 사별한 부모의 부부관계 경험의 의미와 본질을 세월호 유가족을 대상으로탐색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 세월호 재난으로 자녀를 잃은 부모 15명의 면담자료를 활용하였다. 면담자료는 Giorgi 현상학적 연구방법 절차에 따라 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 연구참여자들의 부부관계 경험은 ‘부부의 서로 다른 애도반응 및 애도방식의 차이’, ‘예전과 달라진 부부의 모습들’, ‘자녀 때문에 부부가 유지되고 살아가게 됨: 부부에게 던져진 생존자녀와 사별자녀의 의미’의 세 축으로 분류 되었고 구성요소 7개, 하위구성요소 25개가 도출되었다. 구성요소는 ‘슬픔에 갇힌 채 일상을 버텨가는 아내’, ‘가장이기 때문에 슬픔을 억눌러야 하는 남편’, ‘예전의 행복했던 모습과는 달라진 부부의 일상’, ‘힘들어하는 배우자를 바라보며 소진되어감’, ‘사별의 슬픔을 배우자와 함께 감당해 가기’, ‘자녀 잃은 고통을 버텨가는 과정에서 배우자의 존재의 가치를 새로 알게 됨’, ‘자녀 때문에 부부가 유지되고 살아가게 됨: 생존/사별자녀의 의미’이다. 연구결과에 기초하여 논의와 시사점을 제시하였다.

Abstract

This purpose of this study was to understand the marital relationship of bereaved parents of the Sewol Ferry disaster after the death of a child. Giorgi’s phenomenological method was employed to deduct 7 components and 25 subcomponents from statements of deep interview of 15 participants. The participants’ experience of marital relationship is divided into ‘the difference of married couples’, ‘grief reaction and grieving style’, ‘couples` relationship after death of their child’ and ‘parents who live for their child: meaning of surviving children and a deceased child’. The components are: ‘wives enduring sorrow of bereavement’, ‘husbands avoiding grief’, ‘changes in couples’ daily lives’, ‘exhausted by looking at a spouse’, ‘coping with grief’, ‘awareness of the value of a spouse’, ‘maintaining couples’ relationship for their child’. The discussion and implication were provided based on the results of this study.
