본 연구에서는 정신분열병 환자들의 정서표현, 정서표현갈등 그리고 성격유형간의 관계를 살펴보고 일반인들과의 차이를 비교해보았다. 정신분열병 환자들과 일반인들에게 정서표현질문지와 정서표현갈등질문지, 아이젱크 성격척도 등을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 밝혀진 주요 결과들은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 정신분열병 환자들은 일반인들에 비해 정서표현과 정서표현갈등이 유의하게 낮았다. 일반인들은 정서표현이 적을수록 정서표현갈등이 높았으나, 정신분열병 환자들은 정서표현이 많을수록 정서표현갈등이 높았다. 정신분열병 환자들은 증상의 정도가 심할수록, 부정적 정서표현이 많을수록 정서표현갈등이 높았다. 둘째, 정신분열병 환자들은 일반인들에 비해 정신병적 성향과 내향성향이 더 높았다. 일반인들은 외향성향이 높을수록 정서표현이 많았고, 내향성향이 높을수록 정서표현이 적었다. 정신분열병 환자들은 외향성향이 높을수록, 정신병적 성향이 낮을수록 정서표현이 많았고, 내향성향과 정신병적 성향이 높을수록 정서표현이 적었다. 또한 일반인들은 내향성향과 신경증적 성향이 높을수록 정서표현갈등이 높았고, 정신분열병 환자들은 신경증적 성향이 높을수록 정서표현갈등이 높았다. 끝으로 본 연구의 시사점과 제한점이 논의되었다.
The purpose of this study was to examine the difference between schizophrenia patients and normal controls in terms of emotional expressiveness, ambivalence over emotional expressiveness, and personality type. The instruments used for this study included the Emotional Expressiveness Questionnaire(EEQ), the Ambivalence over Emotional Expressiveness Questionnaire(AEQ), and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire(EPQ). The results were as follows. Firstly, emotional expressiveness and ambivalence over emotional expressiveness were much lower in the schizophrenia subjects than in the normal controls. For the normal controls, the lower emotion they expressed, the higher was their ambivalence over emotional expressiveness. However, for the schizophrenia subjects, the higher emotion they expressed, the higher their ambivalence over emotional expressiveness. An additional finding was that for the schizophrenia group ambivalence over emotional expressiveness increased with severity of symptoms and the degree of negatively expressed emotions. Secondly, the schizophrenia group showed higher levels of psychoticism and introversion than the normal controls. For the normal subjects, scores on the extraversion/introversion dimension were related to emotional expressiveness with high extraversion associated with high emotional expressiveness and high introversion associated with low emotional expressiveness. For the schizophrenia patients, the higher their extraversion and the lower their psychoticism scores, the higher were their scores for emotional expressiveness. However, the higher their introversion and psychoticism scores, the lower were their emotional expressiveness scores. Further findings were that, for normal subjects, the higher their introversion and neuroticism scores, the higher was their ambivalence over emotional expressiveness. For the schizophrenia patients, the higher their neuroticism scores, the higher was their ambivalence over emotional expressiveness. The implications and limitations of this study were discussed.
