목적 : 본 연구는 신체적 기능장애인을 대상으로 장애수용, 자아존중감, 우울, 인권이 삶의 만족도에 미치 는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 한국장애인개발원의 장애인삶 2차 패널조사에 참여한 6,121명 중 신체기능 장애인 1,780명의 데이 터를 추출하여 일반적인 특성, 장애수용, 자아존중감, 우울, 인권 항목을 분석하였다. 자료는 기술 통계, 피어슨 상관분석, 다중회귀분석을 실시하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 신체기능 장애인의 장애수용, 자아존중감, 우울, 인권과 전반적인 삶의 만족도는 유의미한 상관관계 를 보였다. 우울감이 낮을수록, 장애수용과 자아존중감, 인권이 높을수록 삶의 만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 보였다. 장애수용, 자아존중감, 우울, 인권이 전반적인 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향은 41%의 설명력을 보 였다. 결론 : 신체적 기능장애인의 긍정적인 삶의 만족도를 위하여 장애인 자신의 긍정적 장애수용, 지역사회의 심리정서적 지원과 함께 비장애인들의 장애인식에 따른 관점변화가 이루어질 필요가 있다.

The objective of this study was to develop a fashion therapy program for improving body image and self-esteem among male workers. Accordingly, the demand for fashion therapy programs was examined by conducting a literature review, survey, and in-depth interviews with men working in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk areas. The results are summarized as follows. The fashion therapy program followed a framework of “introduction-development-final” and was 60 minutes in length, for four sessions (one per week). The contents of the program consisted of a study of the participants’ appearance and any concerns they had about their body in Session 1. In Session 2, differences in image perception were examined according to color coding of menswear and personal color. Session 3 comprised understanding what styling is required to supplement men’s body shape and what style is suitable for each participant. The content of Session 4 determined how to build social performance or positive image using nonverbal elements. Overall, this study has great significance in that it has developed a study on fashion therapy program originally applied for psychological treatment with women that has been adapted as a program to help improve positive emotions and social competitiveness of male workers in an office environment.

The aim of this study is to explore diverse characteristics of females aged 25 to 49 years grouped according to Body Mass Index(BMI), and to investigate the effect of body satisfaction and self-esteem on involvement in dieting within each BMI group. In total, 549 females who participated in an online survey were divided into groups based on BMI(underweight, normal, and overweight). Results demonstrated three key factors, as follows. First, differences were identified among BMI groups according to demographic characteristics(age, household income, and marital status), although no difference according to education level was found. Second, differences according to BMI groups were found in body satisfaction and involvement in dieting, whereas were not found in self-esteem. Third, model testing for each BMI group showed, a positive correlation between body satisfaction and self-esteem in all three groups. However, there was a difference in causal relationships among variable across BMI groups. Body satisfaction negatively affected and self-esteem positively affected involvement in dieting for the underweight and normal groups, whereas there was no causal relationship between variables in the overweight group. Based on these results, basic information of groups segmented by the level of BMI was obtained, which could be used for both academic and practical implications.

The purpose of this study was to investigate self-esteem, body image, body cathexis and body attitude of female middle school students. A total of 298 subjects were included in this study. Subjects were classified into weight control group and a non weight control group. As a result of analyzing body shapes satisfaction was higher in the non weight control group 2.83 than in the weight control group 2.28 (p<0.001). The weight control group revealed lower body satisfaction than the non weight control group. The result of the reason for weight control was the ratio of ‘weight loss’ 84.6%, respectively (p<0.001). Factors impacting physical image of female middle school students were analyzed as friends (3.46), internet (3.22), and TV (3.13). Results suggest that educational program should be combined with a positive emphasis on physical image and self-esteem for female middle school students. Also, there was a high correlation between body weight and self-esteem. Results indicate that female middle school students are interested in weight loss with the wrong body image. Therefore, female middle school students should be provided with an educational approach to such issues so that they have a realistic perception of their body and form realistic values about self-esteem and body.

This study investigated multidimensional body image, self-esteem, clothing benefits sought, and Body Image After Breast Cancer (BIABC) within surgical subgroups among breast cancer survivors. The study applied the questionnaire survey method and the main research was conducted through an online survey. The respondents included 207 breast cancer survivors between the ages of 30 and 59, each of whom received the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ). Self-esteem, clothing benefits sought, examination, and demographic variables were measured using a 5-point Likert scale. The main results of this study are outlined below. For clothing benefit sought, six factors were formulated—pursuit of self-expression/social approval, function/health, compensation, femininity, fashion, and camouflage—and BIABC was defined by the four factors of body stigma/vulnerability, transparency, limitation and cancer concern. While MBSRQ and self-esteem did not show a statistically significant difference between groups differentiated by the surgical methods experienced, those who underwent mastectomies scored slightly lower than members of the other groups. Moreover, the reconstruction after mastectomy group showed the highest mean on self-expression/social approval, compensation, femininity and entire clothing benefits sought, followed by the lumpectomy group and mastectomy group. The lumpectomy group was found to have more positive BIABC than the mastectomy group. In particular, the mastectomy group showed a lower body stigma/vulnerability mean than the other groups. This study is meaningful in that it improves our understanding of the body image of breast cancer survivors and provides basic knowledge for developing products and marketing strategies for breast cancer survivors as consumers.

The purpose of this study was to understand the effects of hotel employees’ physical attractiveness on person-job fit and to empirically analyze whether self-esteem and self-efficacy play a mediating role in the causality between an employee’s physical attractiveness and person-job fit. Self-administered questionnaires were completed by 345 employees and the data were analyzed by frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. The primary results were as follows: Multiple regression analysis showed that hotel employee physical attractiveness had a positive significant influence on self-esteem (β=.504, p<.001) and self-efficacy (β=.441, p<.001). Also, employee selfesteem (β=.281, p<.001) and self-efficacy (β=.478, p<.001) each had a positive significant influence on person-job fit. As a result of analyzing the mediating role, the effect of hotel employees' physical attractiveness on person-job fit was partially mediated by self-esteem and self-efficacy.

대학생은 취업과 사회진출, 미래를 준비하는 과도기의 중심에 서 있으며 외모와 신체 지향적 흐름의 중심에서 갈등하고 있는 대학생들의 여가 스포츠 활동의 정도에 따른 자기신체평가와 자아존중감의 관계를 분석하여 왜곡되어 가고 있는 사회정서를 거슬러 외모와 신체에 대한 올바른 가치관과 신념 형성을 위한 기초자료를 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다. C도 K대에 재학 중인 대학생 총 544명으로 유의적 표집방법에 의해 표본을 추출하고 자기평가 기입 방법으로 작성토록 하여 회수하여 일원 변량분석과 상관분석으로 실시하였다. 대학생의 여가 스포츠 활동은 자기신체평가와 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며 참여요인 중 빈도는 자기신체평가 요인 중 자긍심에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 시간 및 기간은 체중에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 자아존중감의 차이는 여러 요인 중 사회적 요인에서만 유의한 차이를 보였다.

본 연구는 여대생의 신체상, 섭식행동 및 자아 존중감을 관계 분석하여 바람직한 식이습관 및 건강생활을 위한 근거를 제시하고자 위한 것으로 첫째, 여대생들의 전공별 신체상과 섭식행위(섭식의도 및 절제) 및 자아 존중감의 차이를 분석하고 둘째, 여대생들의 신체상에 따른 섭식행위 및 자아존중감과의 관계를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 연구대상은 서울시내 여대생을 대상으로 유층집략무선표집을 한 후 총 582명을 대상으로 설문조사한 후 일반전공 194명, 체육전공 215명 무용전공 173명을 대상으로 일원변량분석과 회귀분석을 한 결과 전공별 신체상에서는 건강 체력평가에서 유의한 차이가 나타났고 체육, 무용, 일반집단 순으로 높게 나타났으며, 신장에 대한 불만에서는 일반과 무용이 체육집단에 비해 신장에 대한 불만이 더 높게 나타났다. 섭식행동에서는 정서적 섭식에서 무용과 일반집단이 체육전공집단보다 더 높게 나타났고 절제된 섭식에서는 무용집단이 다른 집단에 비해 더 높게 나타났으며, 외부적 섭식에서는 일반과 무용집단이 체육 전공집단보다 더 높게 나타났다. 신체상과 섭식행동은 사회적 종속성(7.6%), 전반적 외모평가(6.1%), 운동에 대한 효과(4.7%), 몸치장(3.5%), 건강 체력(3.1%)이 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 신체상과 자아존중감은 전반적 외모평가(10.2%), 몸치장에 대한 관심(6.8%), 건강 체력평가(1.5%) 순으로 설명력을 보여주었다. 이와 같은 결과는 신체상과 섭식행동, 자아 존중감은 영향을 미치고 있음을 보여주었다.
