Abstract

The aim of study was to identify factors influencing the self-confidence in the teacher's role on adolescent suicide. The cross-sectional descriptive study design was used. Participants were 318 teachers from elementary, middle, and high school in D city. Data were collected using questionnaires which included general characteristics, attitude toward adolescent suicide, knowledge about guideline for adolescent suicide prevention, and self-confidence in the teacher's role on adolescent suicide. Collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression with SPSS 21.0 program. The results of the regression analysis revealed that experience of suicide education, attitude, and knowledge about adolescent suicide were the significant factors affecting the self-confidence in teacher's role for adolescent suicide. The predictor variables explained 22.5% of variance regarding self-confidence in teacher's role for adolescent suicide. Findings indicate the factors should be used in developing effective intervention for enhancement of self-confidence in teacher's role on adolescent suicide.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년 자살에 대한 교사의 역할수행 자신감에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위함이다. 본 연구는 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상은 D시 소재 17개 초 중 고교에 근무하고 있는 남녀 교사 318명이었다. 본 연구에서는 대상자의 일반적 특성, 청소년 자살에 대한 태도, 청소년 자살예방 지침에 대한 지식, 청소년 자살에 대한 교사의 역할수행 자신감에 대한 자가보고식 설문을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 서술통계, t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 자살 관련 교육경험이 있는 경우, 청소년 자살에 대한 태도가 부정적일수록, 청소년 자살에 대한 지식수준이 높을수록 청소년 자살에 대한 교사의 역할수행 자신감이 높게 나타났으며, 이들 변수는 교사의 청소년 자살에 대한 역할수행 자신감에 대해 총 22.5%를 설명하였다. 본 연구결과를 통해 확인된 영향요인들은 이용하여 청소년 자살에 대한 교사의 역할수행 자신감을 증진시키기 위한 교육과 효과적인 중재가 개발되어야 할 것이다.
