초록

본 연구는 기술활용도 측면의 불완전고용이 개인의 자존감과 정신건강에 미치는 영향과, 이러한 영향에 대한 일에 대한 몰입과 사회적 지지의 조절효과를 살펴보고자 수행되었다. 연구는 종단으로 설계되어 2회의 설문조사를 통해 자료가 수집되었다. 1차 조사 시점에서 실업 후 미취업 상태에 있었으나 2차 조사 시점에서는 재취업에 성공한 153명의 자료를 사용하였다. 기술활용도 측면에서의 불완전고용은 두 가지 방식으로 측정되었다. 하나는 ‘학력격차비’로서 현재의 직업에 요구되는 학력을 기준으로 한 개인의 실제 보유학력의 비율(요구 학력/실제 학력)이고, 다른 하나는 자기보고 방식으로 측정된 ‘지각된 과잉자격’으로 ‘성장가능성부재’와 ‘자격불일치’라는 하위요인으로 구성되었다. 학력격차비는 일에 대한 몰입 및 사회적 지지와 상호작용하여 정신건강에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 일에 대한 몰입 정도가 낮은 경우 학력격차비에 따른 불완전고용의 정도가 높아질수록 사회부적응과 우울․불안의 수준이 높아지는 것으로 나타난 반면, 일에 대한 몰입 정도가 높은 경우 사회부적응과 우울․불안의 정도에 유의미한 변화가 없었다. 사회적 지지도 학력격차비와 상호작용하여, 사회적 지지를 낮게 지각하는 경우 학력격차비에 따른 불완전고용의 정도가 클수록 우울․불안의 수준도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이들 두 조절변인들은 지각된 과잉자격의 두 하위요인과도 상호작용하여 학력격차비와 유사한 패턴의 상호작용효과를 나타냈다. 일에 대한 몰입은 성장가능성부재 및 자격불일치 요인과 상호작용하여 자존감과 우울․불안에 조절효과를 나타냈고, 사회적 지지는 성장가능성부재와만 상호작용하여 우울․불안에 조절효과를 나타냈다. 본 연구 결과는 개인 내적 변인인 일에 대한 몰입과 외부 상황적 변인인 사회적 지지가, 기술활용도 측면의 불완전고용이 자존감과 정신건강에 미치는 영향에 완충효과를 가짐을 시사하고 있다.

Abstract

In this study, the effects of skill-utilization based underemployment on self-esteem and mental health were examined. Also the moderating effects of employment commitment and social support were verified. Data obtained by a longitudinally designed survey with the reemployed (N=153) after job loss were used. The skill-utilization based underemployment was measured in two ways. One is measured in the way that use objective data, the ratio of education - ‘educational requirement for the current job’ divided by ‘individual educational attainment.’ The other is measured in the way that use psychological and self-reported measure, two factors of overqualification - the absence of opportunity for growth (no-growth) and the occupational mismatch in educational attainment, skills and experiences (mismatch). The main effect revealed that the no-growth made self-esteem lower and mental health (GHQ-social maladjustment) worse. The significant interaction of the ratio of education and employment commitment indicates that the negative effects of underemployment measured by the ratio of education on mental health (GHQ-social maladjustment, GHQ-depression/anxiety) were greater for those perceiving low employment commitment than for those perceiving high employment commitment. The significant interaction of the ratio of education and social support indicates that the negative effects of underemployment measured by the ratio of education on mental health (GHQ-depression/anxiety) were greater for those perceiving low social support than for those perceiving high social support. The two moderators also interacted with the two factors of perceived overqualification. Employment commitment had significant interaction effects with the no-growth and the mismatch on self-esteem and mental health (GHQ-depression/anxiety), whereas social support had a significant interaction only with the no-growth on mental health (GHQ-depression/anxiety). The significant interactions show that employment commitment and social support function as buffers in reducing the negative effects of skill-utilization based underemployment on self-esteem and mental health.
