부모의 성취압력이 아동 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Objectives The primary objective of this research is to investigate the potential moderated mediating effect of grit in the relationship between parental achievement pressure, children's academic stress, and life satisfaction.
 Methods In pursuit of this aim, the research employed the data from the 11th wave (2018) of the Korean Children Panel Study conducted by the Korea Institute of Child Care and Education (KICCE), with a sample size of N=1,262. To ascertain the relationships between the main variables, preliminary descriptive statistics and Pearson correla-tion coefficients were examined. Mediation effects and moderated mediation effects were tested using the Process Macro programs 1, 4, and 7.
 Results Firstly, the direct effect of parental achievement pressure on children's life satisfaction was found to be non-significant. However, a significant indirect effect was observed, mediated by children's academic stress, in-dicating an indirect influence on life satisfaction. Secondly, children's grit was identified as a significant moderator, mitigating the impact of parental achievement pressure on children's stress and exerting a positive influence on their life satisfaction. Specifically, higher levels of children's grit were associated with a diminished conditional in-direct effect of parental achievement pressure on children's stress, ultimately leading to elevated levels of child-ren's life satisfaction.
 Conclusions To mitigate children's academic stress and enhance their life satisfaction, it is imperative to mitigate parental achievement pressure and foster children's grit.
