Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the degree and correlation among clinical nurses' interpersonal problems, emotional labor and professional self-concept and to examine the effects of interpersonal problems and emotional labor on professional self-concept. Data were collected through a self reported structured questionnaire of 150 clinical nurses using convenient sampling methods from August 2, 2016 to August 30, 2016. The mean score of interpersonal problems was 2.57 and the score of moving toward people was the highest. The mean score of emotional labor was 3.50 and the score of emotional expression frequency was highest. The mean score of professional self-concept was 2.54 and the score of communication was highest. Interpersonal problems were positively correlated with emotional labor(r=0.392, p<0.001), while professional self-concept was negatively correlated with interpersonal problems(r=-0.452, p<0.001) and emotional labor(r=-0.376, p<0.001). Stepwise regression showed that interpersonal problems had the greatest effect on professional self-concept(${\beta}=-0.377$, p<0.001), followed by $Age(yr){\geq}40$, Age(yr)>$30{\leq}40$, education level and emotional labor. These variables together explained 44% of the professional self-concept among clinical nurses(F=24.38, p<0.001). In conclusion, strategies for reducing interpersonal problems and emotional labor should be developed to improve professional self-concept of clinical nurses.

본 연구의 목적은 간호사의 대인관계문제, 감정노동, 전문직 자아개념의 정도와 관계를 확인하고 이들 변수가 전문직 자아개념에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위함이다. 충청도 소재 1개 병원에 재직 중인 간호사 150명을 대상으로, 2016년 8월 2일부터 8월 30일까지 자가 보고식 설문조사로 시행되었다. 연구결과, 대인관계문제 평균점수는 2.57점으로 사람들에게 향함의 점수가 가장 높았으며, 감정노동은 3.50점으로 감정노동 빈도가 가장 높았다. 전문직 자아개념의 평균점수는 2.54점으로 의사소통의 점수가 가장 높게 나타났다. 대인관계문제는 감정노동(r=.392, p<.001)과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, 전문직 자아개념은 대인관계문제(r=-.452, p<.001)와 감정노동(r=-.376, p<.001)과 통계적으로 유의한 음의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 대상자의 전문직 자아개념에 대인관계문제(${\beta}=-0.377$, p<.001)가 가장 큰 영향력을 나타내는 변수였으며, 연령(40세 이상)(${\beta}=0.435$ p<.001), 연령(30세 이상 40세 미만)(${\beta}=0.278$ p<.001), 학력(${\beta}=0.157$ p=.012), 감정노동(${\beta}=-0.153$ p=.025) 순으로 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며, 이들 전체 변수는 전문직 자아개념에 대해 약 44%의 설명력을 나타냈다(F=24.38, p<.001). 그러므로 대인관계문제 및 감정노동을 감소시키기 위한 전략이 간호사의 전문직 자아개념 향상을 위해 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
