군 복무 중 자살생각 및 자살시도 경험에 대한 질적연구

A Qualitative Research about the Suicide Attempt and the Suicide Thought which Reservists had Suffered During Military Service

본 연구의 목적은 군 복무 경험이 있는 남성들을 대상으로 군 복무 기간 중 자살생각이나 자살시도를 한 경험에 대해 심층적으로 이해하고자 하는 것이다. 목적 달성을 위해 연구 목적에 맞는 정보제공자 5인을 선정하여 개별면담을 통해 자료를 수집하였고 Connelly and Clandinin(2000)의 내러티브연구방법으로 분석하였다. 자료를 분석한 결과 연구참여자들은 입대 전 군 복무에 대해 수집한 정보가현실과 상이해 당황했고, 고충처리에 대한 통로가 없어 괴로워했다. 그들은 자신의 힘든 상황에 대해방관하는 군 체제에 대항하거나 어려움을 극복하기 위한 하나의 도구로 자살을 시도하거나 자살을 생각하였으며 자살생각 및 자살시도에 대해 부끄러운 감정을 가지고 있었다. 이들의 경험을 토대로 군자살 예방대책에 대한 실천적 지침들을 제언하였다.
