본 연구의 목적은 보육교사의 소진에 영향을 미치는 사회적 지지, 직무스트레스 변인 간 구조관계를 분석하는데 있다. 연구대상은 어린이집에 재직 중인 보육교사 432명으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21. 0 및 AMOS 22.0 통계프로그램을 이용하여 구조방정식 모델을 설정하고 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 첫째, 사회적 지지는 보육교사의 직무스트레스에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 사회적 지지는 보육교사의 소진에 직접 효과는 나타나지 않고 간접효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 보육교사의 직무스트레스는 보육교사의 소진에 직접효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 분석결과를 통해 보육교사의 소진 감소 방안으로는 구성원의 사회적 지지 강화 및 정부의 제도적 지원이 필요시 된다.
