초록

두 개의 연구를 통해서 자동적 정서전이 현상인 정서전염과 이타행동사이의 관계를 분석하고 개인적 수준의 문화변인인 자기해석(독립적-의존적 자기)이 두 변인 사이의 관계에 미치는 조절효과를 검증하였다. 도움을 필요로 하는 사람의 정서표현은 타인의 무의식적인 표정흉내를 유발하여 이렇게 얻어진 정서정보가 안면피드백과정에 의해 내재화됨으로서 정서가 전이되며, 전이된 정서는 이타행동을 유발하는 동기로서 작용한다는 가설을 제안하였다. 연구 1 에서는 공감과 정서전염을 분리하기 위하여 정서자극의 표현과 정서자극의 내용을 불일치되게 조작한 비디오를 제작하여 연구 참가자들의 정서전염을 유도하고 그들이 장애학생을 위한 봉사활동에 참가할 것인가의 이타행동을 측정하였다. 그 결과 정서전염이 많이 일어날수록 참가자들이 이타행동에 더 많이 보여주었다. 연구 2에서는 설문조사를 통해 연구 참가자들의 정서전염에 대한 민감도, 실제 이타행동의 경험 및 자기해석(독립적-의존적 자기)을 측정하였다. 위계적 회귀분석의 결과 의존적 자기가 높을수록 정서전염의 민감도가 이타행동을 예언하는 경향을 높이는 조절효과를 가지고 독립적 자기는 반대의 조절효과를 가짐을 발견하였다. 분석 결과와 관련하여 정서와 이타행동의 진화론적 의미를 논의하였다.

Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between emotional contagion and altruistic behaviors and also examined the moderating effect of self-construals(independent and interdependent self) in this relationship. It was hypothesized that the emotional expression of people in need would be caught by others through automatic mimicry, that emotional information would be internalized through the facial-feedback process and that the transferred emotion would eventually result in a motive to call for altruistic behaviors. In Study 1, participants watched a video clip about a disabled student reporting difficulties in school life but showing facial expression opposite to the contents of message to separate emotional contagion and empathy. Participants' decision to participate in voluntary works for the disabled student was measured. As a result, it was found that the more participants experienced emotional contagion, the more they participated in altruistic behaviors. Study 2 measured the vulnerability to emotional contagion, actual experiences of altruistic behaviors, and self-construals. The results of hierarchical regression showed that interdependent self moderated the influence of emotional contagion on altruistic behaviors whereas independent self moderated the relationship in an opposite direction. The implications of emotion and altruistic behaviors in human evolution process are discussed.
