Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the differences of internal resilience, social support, and social-problem solving skill according to the degree of childhood abuse experience, and to identify factors affecting social problem-solving skill.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 282 adults aged 20 and older. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe’s test post-hoc analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple stepwise regression.
Results: The higher experience of childhood abuse was associated with lower internal resilience (p<.001), social support (p<.001), and social problem-solving skill (p<.001). Factors affecting adults’ social problem-solving skill were internal resilience (β=.52, p<.001), social support (β=.30, p<.001), and age of 20~29 year (β=-.08, p=.040). The level of abuse experience in childhood did not affect social problem-solving skill.
Conclusion: Internal resilience and social support had a positive impact on social problem-solving skill. The level of abuse experience in childhood can impair internal resilience, perception of social support, and social problem-solving skills. This study suggests that even if adults perceive abuse experience in childhood, their ability to solve social problems can be improved through internal resilience and social support.
