초록

This study examines the relationship between parental psychological control, emotional control capabilities and relational aggression, and the path in which relational aggression is affected. The subjects consisted of 584 fifth- and sixth-grade elementary school children who attend school in Seoul or Incheon. The data was collected using questionnaires and was analyzed by means of SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 22.0. It was found that parental psychological control has a meaningful negative effect on emotional control capability(others, self), and that it has a meaningful positive effect on relational aggression(proactive, reactive). In addition, the psychological control of each parent was found to have statistical impact on proactive relational aggression via the emotional control capabilities of the other. However, self-emotional control capabilities mediated only the relationship with reactive relational aggression in terms of the mother's psychological control, and had a mediating effect in both reactive and proactive relational aggression in terms of the father's psychological control. The results of this study suggest that the father's psychological control affects children through a variety of pathways, in contrast to the mother's psychological control.
