자아존중감 제고를 위한 ‘철학하기’ 방법 모색

Abstract

This study aims to find ways to improve self-esteem and self-efficacy that can be undermined by negative psychological conditions such as stress and depression that young people who are about to join the army will experience new freedom and rights while passing through the gate of enlistment. To this end, the commentator proposes “philosophy”. Philosophical counseling and children's philosophical education methods are proposed, but both activities include third-party intervention. However, due to the nature of adolescence, they may not easily allow them to share their psychological situations and environments with others. For that reason, I would like to find a way to a philosophy that dismantles the intervention of third parties. In the case of philosophical counseling, it is true that the philosophical capacity of a counselor is required, and in the case of children's philosophical education, the philosophical capacity of a philosophy teacher is required. However, since these activities ultimately aim to recognize human problems, that is, my problems, and solve them on my own, I hope that if specific programs and plans are accompanied, the negative psychological situation will be improved without the intervention of third parties. As a consequence, it is suggested that some of the contents of the positive psychology program, whose effectiveness has been partially proven through experiments, can be used. In this study, a very detailed and specific program development was not attempted to resolve the negativity of the psychological situation of young people. Research on this will have to be conducted for a very long time and very carefully. However, it is not easy because the duty of national defense is natural, and it is necessary to recognize that the psychological situation of young people may not be healthy, and that efforts for them are necessary and valuable.
