Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship among self-efficacy, self-determinative motivation and creative thinking ability. And to confirm the relative predictive power of motivation variables in predicting middle school students' creative thinking ability. The instruments used in this study were 'TTCT', 'Self-efficacy' and 'Self-Regulation Scale'. Self-reported response data on these instruments from 212 middle school students in Seoul were analyzed. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, multiple stepwise regression analysis by using SPSS 18.0. The major results of this study were as follows; First, the correlations among self-efficacy, self-determinative motivation and creative thinking ability were significant. Second, Task difficulty preferred, self-control efficacy and internal motivation were the best predictor of creative thinking ability in middle school students. This study suggested that Task difficulty preferred, self-control efficacy and internal motivation is essential to improve creative thinking ability in middle school students.

본 연구는 중학생의 창의적 사고능력과 자기효능감, 자기결정성 동기 요인 간의 상관 및 설명력을 알아보고자 실시되었다. 이를 위해 서울지역의 중학생 212명을 대상으로 창의적 사고능력, 자기효능감, 자기 결정성 동기 검사를 실시하였다. 수집된 자료를 활용하여 상관관계, 회귀 분석을 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 창의적 사고능력은 자기효능감과 자기결정성 동기의 하위요인들과 유의한 정적상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 창의적 사고능력을 가장 잘 설명해주는 자기효능감의 하위요인은 과제난이도 선호와 자기조절 효능감 요인으로 나타났으며 자기결정성 동기에서는 내적동기인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 중학생들의 창의적 사고능력을 증진시키는데 과제난이도선호, 자기조절효능감, 내적동기의 중요성을 알 수 있었다.
