Abstract

This study was conducted to classify the factors influencing nursing students' subjectivity toward happiness and to identify differences in department satisfaction according to happiness factors. Q-methodology, which is effective at studying human subjectivity, was employed. Sixty-four students were asked to sort the 34 Q-statements along a 9-point scale ranging from most disagree (-4) to most agree (+4). The Q-sorts were analyzed using pc-QUNAL program, which subjects the data to principle component factor analysis, followed by varimax rotation. Moreover, the data were collected using a questionnaire that consisted of 27 questions pertaining to department satisfaction and analyzed using the SPSS 21.0 program. The result was classified into four factors that explained 58.0% of the total variance. Factor 1 was a progressive self-realization type, factor 2 an isolated flow type, factor 3 an optimistic friendly type, and factor 4 a self-centered relationship seeking type. Moreover, there was a significant difference in department satisfaction according to happiness factors (F=4.53, p=.006). To enhance department satisfaction and nursing professionalism, education and counseling in consideration of these types are needed.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 행복에 대한 주관성을 유형화하고, 그 유형별 특성에 따라 학과만족도에 차이가 있는지 분석하고자 시도되었다. 간호대학생의 주관성을 연구하는데 효과적인 Q방법론을 적용하였다. 대상자는 일 지역 간호학과 학생 64명으로 구성하였으며, Q표본 34개의 진술문을 가장 부정(-4)에서 가장 긍정(+4) 범위의 9점 척도 상에 분류하도록 하였다. Q분류된 자료는 QUANL PC 프로그램을 이용하여 주요인분석과 배리맥스 회전을 통해 요인분석이 수행되었다. 또한 학과만족도 자료는 27개 문항으로 구성된 설문지를 이용하여 수집하였으며, SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 요인분석 결과 4개의 유형으로 분류되었으며 전체 변량의 58.0%를 설명하였다. 제1유형은 진취적 자기 실현형, 제2유형은 고립적 몰입형, 제3유형은 낙관적 친화형, 제4유형은 자기중심적 관계 추구형으로 명명하였다. 간호대학생의 행복유형에 따른 학과만족도는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(F=4.53, p=.006). 즉, 진취적 자기 실현형이 고립적 몰입형에 비해서 학과만족도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호대학생의 학과만족도, 더 나아가 간호전문직관을 높여나가기 위해서는 이런 유형들을 고려한 교육 및 상담이 필요하다.
