본 연구는 교정기관의 수용자들의 대표적인 부정적 정서인 불안과 재범위험성 간의관계에서 긍정적 자원인 사회적 지지가 미치는 매개 영향을 연구하였다. 이를 위해 법무부 산하 교정기관 중 B 광역시 소재 중경비시설(S4급)인 ‘P’ 교정기관의 남성 수용자 500명을 대상으로 설문 연구를 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료로 불안, 사회적지지, 재범위험성 간의 관계를 구조방정식 모형을 통하여 분석하였다. 분석한결과 (1) 수용자의 불안과 사회적지지는 재범위험성에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, (2) 수용자의 불안과 재범위험성의 관계에서 사회적지지는부분매개 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 수용자들의 만연한 불안이 재범위험성을 높일 수 있으나, 수용자가 지각하는 사회적지지가 높을 때 재범위험성은 낮아지는 경향성을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해서 수용자의 불안 수준이 높을 때 사회적지지가 재범위험성을 낮추는 역할을 기대할 수 있는 긍정적 심리 자원임을 함의했다.
Recidivism Risk (RR) has been the most interesing area in criminals, hence many 'life-saving programs' have been implemented, including life support, employment support, family support, and counseling support projects. Yet, there has been little empirical research on the effects of anxiety and the perceived social supports in prison on RR. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship among state and trait Anxiety, social support resources, and risk of recidivism among prisoners. Furthermore, the mediating effect of social support resources was analyzed for exlaining the association between state and trait anxiety and RR. 500 male prisoners at the 'P' correctional institution (A heavy security facility (S4 level) located in B Metropolitan City among correctional institutions under the Ministry of Justice) was collected. Structural equation modeling using the survey responses of STAI, social support scale, and recidivism risk scale was conducted. We measure two parts of anxiety (state and trait)and four sub-factors in social support resources (emotional, evaluatative, informational, and financial support). In addition, twenty-three sub areas of RR were measured including individual background information and psychological factors. The results found that (1) anxiety had a significant effect on RR. In more detail, the trait anxiety is higher effect on RR than the state anxiety. The social support also had a significant positive effect on RR in order of evaluative, emotional, informative, and finacial support resource. Lastely, the social support played a significant partial mediating role in the relationship between anxiety and RR. These foundings confirmed that the prisoners’anxiety could increase the RR and the RRcan be decreased if the prisoners are perceived that they had social support resources. Therefore, this study implies that the perceived social support among prisoners can play a protective factor in decresing RR among prisoners with anxeity.
