본 연구는 인간의 행복과 종교적 태도 간의 상관적 개념관계에서 영향력의 방향성을 파악하고, 그에 따른 관계 모형들에 대한 비교 검증을 고찰하는 것이 그 목적이다. 본 연구의 가설적 모형은 다음 5가지 모델이다. 즉, 두 요인 간에 서로 관계가 없다는 이중과정 모델, 두 요인이 상반된 설정의 전제를 하는 대립 모델, 행복하니까 초월적 종교성이 강화된다는 행복감→종교성의 일방향 모델, 종교에 몰입하다보면 행복의 독특한 가치를 느낄 것이라는 종교성→행복감의 일방향 모델, 서로 영향을 주고받는 양방향의 관계를 가정하는 상호작용 모델 등이다. 본 연구의 대상자는 총 633명(남자 197명, 여자 436명)이었고, 개신교인이 245명 천주교인이 388명으로 분포되었다. 접근 방법으로는 관계성을 중심으로 비교하고자 하는 모델들의 타당도를 검증하였다. 확인적 요인 분석과 국소적 최소 제약법의 접근으로 상호관계 비교를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 가설적 모형에 따른 검증의 분석결과를 종합하면, 상호작용모델, 일방향(행복감➔종교성)모델, 일방향(종교성➔행복감)모델, 이중과정모델, 대립모델의 순으로 적합도의 우열이 가려진 것으로 나타났다.
This study is designed to recognize the orientation of the effectiveness in the conceptual relations of models about happiness and religious attitudes, and to consider comparative testifying about relation models. The hypothetic models of this study are as follows; dual process model that there is no relation between two factors, confronting model that the two factors are opposite, happiness-to-religious orientation one way model that happiness reinforces transcendental religion, religious orientation-to-happiness one way model that the absorbing religion reinforces the value of happiness, and interactive model that religion and happiness are interactive. The participant are 633 persons(197 males, 436 females), who are 245 protestants and 388 catholics. The approach method is to testify the validity of models which focus on the relations between two factors and to conduct correlation comparison through confirmatory factor analysis and local minimums. The analysis result of testifying according to the five models is as follows: the fits is the highest in interactive model and the rest are in the order of happiness-to-religious orientation one way model, religious orientation-to-happiness one way model, dual process model, and confronting model.
