Abstract

This is an empirical study with the purpose of analyzing the effects of interpersonal relationship skills and social support on adaptation to college life targeting freshmen. For the objective and questions of this study, 268 freshmen of D University located in Gyeonggi-do were selected and a survey was carried out. The collected survey data were analyzed using factor analysis, reliability analysis, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis with the SPSS program. The results of this study are as follows. First, there was a significant positive correlation among interpersonal relations, social support and adaptation to college life. Second, the factors, forming initial relationships, claiming rights, mental support and dealing with interpersonal conflicts in interpersonal relations, had a significant effect on adaptation to college life. Third, in the area of social support, family support, friend support and instructor support had a significantly positive effect on adaptation to college life. This indicates that interpersonal relations and social support by family, friends and instructors play an important role in adapting to the new environment of college, so it is necessary to develop and adopt various programs that foster interpersonal relation ability for college students to adapt smoothly to college life.

새로운 사회적 관계를 형성하고 시작하는 대학 신입생들에게 대인관계능력은 대학생이 반드시 갖추어야 할 사회적 핵심역량이다. 본 연구 대학 신입생을 대상으로 대인관계능력과 사회적지지가 대학생활 적응에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 목적을 둔 실증적 조사연구이다. 본 연구의 목적과 문제를 해결하기 위해 경기 지역 D대학교 신입생 268명을 연구 대상으로 선정하여 설문조사를 수행하였다. 수집된 설문 자료는 SPSS 프로그램을 이용하여 요인분석, 신뢰도 분석, 빈도분석, 기술통계, 상관관계 및 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석을 통해 나타난 본 연구의 결론을 제시하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대인관계능력, 사회적지지, 대학생활 적응 간에는 유의한 정적 상관관계가 나타났다. 둘째, 대인관계능력은 대학생활 적응에 유의한 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 대인관계능력 하위요인의 처음관계 맺기, 권리 주장, 정서적 지지, 대인갈등 다루기 순으로 대학생활 적응에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 사회적 지지는 대학생활 적응에 유의한 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 사회적지지 하위요인 가운데 가족지지, 친구지지, 교수지지 순으로 대학생활 적응에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 대학이라는 새로운 환경에 적응하는데 대인관계능력과 가족, 친구, 교수의 사회적 지지는 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다는 시사하고 있어 대학생활을 원활하게 수행할 수 있도록 대인관계능력을 함양하는 다양한 프로그램을 개발하여 적용할 필요가 있다.
