초록

본 연구는 정신장애인과 사례관리자간의 ‘실천관계(Working Relationship)’를 측정하는 한국형 실천관계 척도 정신장애인 용의 개발 및 타당화를 위해 진행되었다. 척도개발을 위해 첫째, 문헌연구와 정신장애인을 대상으로 3회의 포커스면접을 통해 실천관계척도의 예비문항을 구성하였다. 둘째, 정신장애인과 정신보건사회복지전공 사회복지학과 교수 2인 및 1급 정신보건사회복지사인 실무자 2인의 검토를 통해 최종 예비문항을 선정하였다. 셋째, 최종 선정된 예비문항을 569명의 정신장애인 대상의 실증조사연구를 통해 척도의 신뢰도와 타당도를 검증하였다. 수집된 자료를 무선 분할하여 먼저 탐색적 요인분석(exploratory factor analysis)을 실시한 결과, 3개의 요인구조를 확인하였다. 요인 1은 사례관리자의 전문적 실천과 관련된 ‘전문가 기여’, 요인 2는 ‘부정적인 실천관계’, 요인 3은 사례관리자와 정신장애인간의 친밀감을 나타내는 ‘정서적 유대’로 나타났다. 나머지 표본을 가지고 확인적 요인분석(confirmatory factor analysis)을 실시한 결과 모델의 적합도는 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 최종 33문항의 한국형 실천관계 척도 정신장애인 용을 개발 제시하였으며, 본 연구의 사회복지적 함의를 논하였다.

This research was carried out in order to develop and validate the Korean Version of Working Relationship Scale for Mentally Disabled Persons, which measures the working relationship between a mentally disabled person and his or her case manager. The first step taken to develop this scale was to construct sample items for the Working Relationship Scale using literature research and three focus group interviews of mentally disabled persons who use local mental health services. Secondly, mentally disabled people were surveyed with these sample items and two professors from the department of social work who specialize in mental health social work and two licensed mental health social workers working in the community mental health field reviewed these sample items to select and compile a final version of the scale. Lastly, the scale’s reliability and validity was verified through an empirical study of 569 mentally disabled persons who surveyed the final selection of items. An explanatory factor analysis showed that the sample items can be grouped into three factors. Factor 1 is ‘Professional Contribution Factor,’ which is related to the professional practice of the case manager; Factor 2 is ‘Negative Working Relationship Factor’; and Factor 3 is ‘Emotional Bond Factor,’ which measures the intimacy between the case manager and the mentally disabled person. A confirmatory analysis of the three-factor format that was discovered in the explanatory factor analysis was carried out with the rest of the randomly divided data, which showed that the model demonstrated a goodness-of-fit. The convergence validity between similar concepts appeared to be appropriate as well. Based on these results, the Korean Version of Working Relationship Scale for Mentally Disabled Persons consisting of a final 33 items is developed and proposed and its implications in social work are discussed.
