Abstract

This study aimed to examine the association among peer attachment, self-esteem, sense of community and happiness, and the multiple mediating role of self-esteem and sense of community in the relationship between peer attachment and happiness. For this purpose, the data were obtained from a representative sample comprising 6th graders who participated in the 13th year of the ‘Panel study on Korean children(2020)’. A total of 1,359 questionnaires were analyzed through correlation, regression, and mediation analyses. The results revealed significant positive correlations among study variables. Regarding overall happiness the results showed the serial multiple mediation effects of self-esteem and sense of community. Concerning life satisfaction the results showed that self-esteem partially mediated the relationship between peer attachment and life satisfaction. The findings highlight the importance of peer attachment in enhancing happiness and suggest to utilize self-esteem and sense of community in the counseling and intervention for children at-risk with low level of happiness.

同伴依恋对高年级小学生幸福感的影响--自尊和社区感的多重中介作用

本研究旨在探讨同伴依恋、自尊、集体感和幸福感之间的关联，以及自尊和集体感在同伴依恋和幸福感之间的多重中介作用。为此，我们从参加 "韩国儿童小组研究（2020 年）"第 13 年的六年级学生中获得了具有代表性的样本数据。通过相关分析、回归分析和中介分析，共对 1,359 份问卷进行了分析。结果显示，研究变量之间存在明显的正相关。在总体幸福感方面，结果显示自尊和社区感具有连续多重中介效应。在生活满意度方面，结果显示自尊对同伴依恋和生活满意度之间的关系起到了部分中介作用。研究结果强调了同伴依恋在提高幸福感方面的重要性，并建议在对幸福感较低的高危儿童进行咨询和干预时利用自尊和社区感。
