Abstract

This study examined the mediating effects of social support on the relationship between self-efficacy and adjustment to university life. Data were collected from 202 university students attending K university in Jeonbuk province using self-reported questionnaires from April 1 to 30, 2017. The demographic characteristics, self-efficacy, social support and adjustment to university life were analyzed by descriptive statistical analyses. The difference in adjustment to university life by demographic characteristics was analyzed by the t-test and ANOVA with Scheffe's post hoc test, while the correlation between variables was measured using Pearson's Correlation Coefficient. The mediating effects of social support were determined by the 3-step multiple regression method developed by Baron and Kenny, and the statistical significance of the mediating effect was measured using the Sobel test. Social support had a partial mediating effect in the relationship between self-efficacy and adjustment to university life. The results of this study will be useful a basic data for the development of a program to enhance self-efficacy and social support systems.

본 연구는 대학생의 자기효능감과 대학생활 적응 간의 관계에서 사회적 지지의 매개효과를 분석하는 서술적 상관관계 연구이다. 전북 소재 K 대학교에 재학 중인 대학생 202명을 대상으로 2017년 4월 1일부터 4월 30일까지 자가보고 설문지를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였으며, 자료분석은 SPSS 23.0 프로그램을 이용하였다. 대상자의 일반적 특성, 자기효능감, 사회적 지지 및 대학생활 적응 정도는 기술통계 분석을 실시하였고 대상자의 일반적 특성에 따른 대학생활 적응의 차이는 t-test, ANOVA로 분석하였으며 사후 검정은 Scheffe 검정을 실시하였다. 변수 간의 상관관계는 Pearson Correlation Coefficient로 분석하였으며 자기효능감과 대학생활 적응 간의 관계에서 사회적 지지의 매개효과는 Baron과 Kenny의 3단계 매개효과 검증 절차를 이용하였으며, 매개효과에 대한 통계적 유의성은 Sobel test로 검정하였다. 본 연구 결과 자기효능감과 대학생활 적응간의 관계에서 사회적 지지가 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 자기효능감이 높을수록 대학생활에 적응을 잘하지만 사회적 지지가 매개할 경우 대학생활 적응 수준을 높여주는 경향성이 더 강해진다는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구의 결과는 대학생의 자기효능감을 증진시킴으로써 대학생활에 잘 적응할 수 있도록 학생상담 및 중재 프로그램을 개발하는데 활용할 수 있으며 또한 학생들이 활용할 수 있는 대학의 사회적 지지 체계 개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
