Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of career locus of control on university students' career decision efficacy. For this purpose, it performed a questionnaire survey analysis on 476 university students in I city. According to the results of the analysis, the first is that there were not the statistically significant differences of career locus of control and career decision efficacy for subjects' background variables. The second is that it found the statistically significant co-relationship between career locus of control and career decision efficacy. Lastly, it found that career locus of control has positive effect on career decision efficacy. Given the results of the analysis, the inner career locus factors of control have strong effects on career search and career decision, and career decision efficacy played an important role on career related decision making and career coaching. In this point, it is required to perform more studies and analyses on career locus of control and career decision efficacy and on various career coaching programs in the future.

이 연구의 목적은 대학생들의 진로내외통제소재가 진로결정효능감에 영향을 미치는 요인은 무엇인지를 밝히려는 것이다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 I시에 소재한 대학생 476명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 응답 결과에 대하여 첫째, 대학생들의 진로내외통제소재와 진로결정효능감은 배경변인별로 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 둘째, 대학생들의 진로내외통제소재와 진로결정효능감에서 유의미한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 대학생들의 진로내외통제소재가 진로결정효능감에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과로 볼 때, 진로탐색 및 진로선택, 구직활동을 하는데 내적통제 요인이 상당한 영향력을 가지며, 진로와 관련된 결정을 내리는데 진로결정효능감은 진로지도에 중요한 요소임을 보여준다. 이를 위해 진로내외통제소재와 진로결정효능감에 대한 지속적인 탐색과 분석이 이루어지며, 대학생에게 다양한 진로지도프로그램의 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 보여진다.
