초록

본 연구는 평생교육사의 임파워먼트가 직무만족과 조직몰입에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 연구의 목적이 있다. 따라서 대전지역 평생교육시설에 근무하는 160명을 대상으로 SPSS 20.0을 활용하여 통계분석을 실시하였다. 통계분석은 표본의 인구통계학적 특성을 파악하기 위한 빈도분석, 기술통계 분석, 측정변수의 타당성을 확인하기 위해 Varimax 직각회전방법을 이용한 요인분석, 변수들 간의 내적일관성을 통한 신뢰성을 확인하기 위하여 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$계수를 이용한 신뢰성 분석, 그리고 가설검증에 앞서 설정된 변수들 간 상호관련성을 확인하고자 Pearson의 상관관계 분석을 실시한 후 회귀분석을 통해 가설을 검증하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 인구통계학적 특성에 따른 기술통계 분석 결과 임파워먼트는 성별, 연령, 교육수준, 고용형태, 일일근무시간, 월 소득별 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 임파워먼트는 직무만족에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 임파워먼트 수준이 높을수록 직무만족 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 임파워먼트는 조직몰입에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 임파워먼트 수준이 높을수록 조직몰입 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 평생교육시설에 근무하는 평생교육사에게 임파워먼트를 부여하는 것이 필요하다는 관점을 반영한 본 연구에서는 개인의 역량과 능력을 개발할 수 있게 하여 직무만족과 조직몰입을 증대시켜 평생교육시설의 성장과 발전에 도움이 되는 연구의 시사점을 제시하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects empowerment has on a lifelong educator's job satisfaction and organizational commitment. This study was implemented to amass and analyze the data from 160 Daejeon district's lifelong educators using SPSS 20.0. The statistical analysis was conducted with the following measures: frequency analysis for demographic characteristics, descriptive analysis, factor analysis with Varimax rotation for the validity of the measured variables, Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the reliability of the internal consistency between the variables, and Pearson's correlation coefficient to confirm the relevance between the variables. Our hypothesis was then verified through regression analysis. Our research results showed that, first, the level of empowerment differed depending on such factors as gender, age, education level, employee type, work hours, and monthly income. Second, empowerment was shown to have a significant influence on job satisfaction, where higher empowerment levels led to higher job satisfaction. Third, empowerment was a significant factor in increasing organizational commitment, as higher empowerment levels led to higher commitment. Therefore, this study reflected on the concept that empowerment was needed by lifelong educators, thus showing that enhancing job satisfaction and organizational commitment by developing the personal abilities of a lifelong institution educator is favorable to the institution's development and success.
