Abstract

This study focused on investigating the effect of mother``s dysfunctional communication, children``s aggression and their overt narcissism. In order to expand the study on relationships, special attention was given to the possible mediating effects of children``s covert narcissism on relationships. The participants consisted of 144 boys and 140 girls in the 5th and 6th grades attending elementary schools located in Cheonan. The data collected were analyzed by means of t-test, Pearson``s correlation, multiple regression, using the SPSS Win 19.0. The results were as follows. 1) Mother``s dysfunctional communication was significantly related with children``s aggression and their overt narcissism. 2) Mother``s dysfunctional communication was found to affect children``s aggression in a direct manner as well as indirectly through children``s overt narcissism. These results suggest that there is a necessity for preventive education and therapeutic intervention based on covert narcissism and maternal dysfunctional communication. With these research results in mind, it is suggested that different intervention strategies, according to gender, need to be applied.
