This study identified the relationship between hardiness and life satisfaction or expectation of multicultural Korean children, and examined the mediating models of acculturative stress moderated by resilience on hardiness and life satisfaction or life expectation. The participants in the study were 201 male and female children from Korean multicultural families. PROCESS Macro 3.5 Model 14 was used for the analysis of the moderated mediating effects. The results revealed that hardiness and resilience were positively correlated with life satisfaction and life expectation, whereas acculturative stress was negatively correlated with life satisfaction and life expectation of multicultural children. In a moderated mediating model for life satisfaction, there was no interaction effect of acculturative stress and resilience, but a conditionally indirect effect of acculturative stress was only significant in groups with low resilience. In a moderated mediating model for life expectation, there was a significant interaction effect of acculturative stress and resilience, and a conditionally indirect effect of acculturative stress was only significant in groups with low resilience and with very high resilience. These findings suggest that only when multicultural children have low resilience, the mediating effect of acculturative stress is significant in relations of hardiness and life satisfaction, as well as hardiness and life expectation. In particular, resilience moderates the influence of acculturative stress on life expectations.
本研究确定了韩国多元文化儿童的心理韧性与生活满意度或生活期望之间的关系，并检验了以心理弹性调节文化适应压力在心理韧性与生活满意度或生活期望之间的中介模型。该研究的参与者为201名来自韩国多元文化家庭的儿童，男女不限。采用PROCESS宏程序3.5中的模型14对调节中介效应进行分析。结果显示，心理韧性和心理弹性与生活满意度和生活期望呈正相关，而文化适应压力与多元文化儿童的生活满意度和生活期望呈负相关。在生活满意度的调节中介模型中，文化适应压力与心理弹性不存在交互效应，但文化适应压力的条件间接效应仅在心理弹性较低的群体中显著。在生活期望的调节中介模型中，文化适应压力与心理弹性存在显著的交互效应，且文化适应压力的条件间接效应仅在心理弹性较低和心理弹性非常高的群体中显著。这些研究结果表明，只有当多元文化儿童的心理弹性较低时，文化适应压力在心理韧性与生活满意度以及心理韧性与生活期望的关系中才具有显著的中介作用。特别是，心理弹性调节了文化适应压力对生活期望的影响。
