초록

본 연구에서는 유아변인, 어머니변인, 아버지변인, 교사변인 중 유아의 행복감에 영향을 미치는 변수들의 상대적인 영향력을 탐색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국아동패널(7차)자료를 활용하여 평균 72.12개월의 유아가 있는 972가구와 유아교육기관의 교사 972명을 최종분석하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 유아변인 중에서 유아의 행복감을 설명하는 변인은 자아존중감, 학업능력(언어문해), 사회적유능감(주장성)으로 나타났다. 둘째, 어머니변인 중에서는 양육효능감, 애정적 부모간양육행동, 행복감, 통제적 양육행동, 통합적 부모간양육행동으로 나타났다. 셋째, 아버지변인 중에서는 양육스트레스, 행복감, 애정적 부모간양육행동이 유아의 행복감을 설명하는 변인으로 나타났다. 넷째, 교사변인중에서는 유아의 기관에 대한 선호도가 주요 변인으로 나타났다. 후속연구로는 유아교육기관관련 변인들 중 유아의 행복감에 영향을 주는 변인에 대한 탐색연구를 제언한다.
