유아기 자녀를 둔 부모의 사교육 인식이 가족건강성에 미치는 영향 : 양육스트레스의 매개효과

초록

This study aimed to examine the effects of parents’ perceptions of private education on family strength and to verify the mediating effect of parenting stress among parents with young children. An online survey was conducted with 376 parents raising children aged 3 to 5 years across South Korea. The findings revealed that parents’ perceptions of private education had a direct positive effect on family strength, while also increasing parenting stress, which in turn had a negative indirect effect on family strength. These results suggest that parents’ perceptions of private education reflect a complex characteristic that encompasses both positive functions and psychological burdens, rather than exerting a unidirectional influence on the family system. In addition, parenting stress was found to function as an important psychological mechanism explaining the relationship between parents’ perceptions of private education and family strength.
