Abstract

This study examines the effects of mindfulness training on job stress, burnout, and teacher efficacy for middle school and high school teachers. For this study, twenty-four middle school and high school teachers were divided into experimental and control groups. Data analysis was performed using a Mixed ANOVA for teacher's job stress, burnout, and teacher efficacy according to pre-training, post-training and delayed post-training periods. As a result, we found support for time interval and between-group interaction effects for all the dependent variables. In order to investigate any delayed effects, a t-test was performed to analyze measurements taken one month after the completion of training period. The delayed post-training results indicated a significant effect between pre and post scores, meaning the program effects were sustained. Therefore, this study indicates that the mindfulness training program implemented in this research is an effective method for preventing job stress and burnout, as well as influencing the efficiency of work performance for middle school and high school teachers.

본 연구는 마음챙김 훈련이 중등교사의 직무스트레스와 소진, 교사효능감에 주는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 실시하였다. G시 소재 중학교 및 고등학교 현직 교사 24명을 실험집단과 통제집단으로 나누어 훈련 프로그램을 시행하였다. 사전, 사후, 추후 세 시점에서 중등교사의 직무스트레스, 소진, 교사효능감을 측정하여 자료를 분석하였다. 마음챙김 훈련 프로그램의 효과를 검증하기 위해 시점과 집단 간의 상호작용 효과를 혼합변량(Mixed ANOVA)으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 직무스트레스, 소진, 교사효능감에서 시점과 집단 간에 상호작용 효과가 유의함을 보여주었다. 또한 프로그램 효과의 지속성을 검증하기 위하여 실시 후 1개월 뒤의 효과를 대응표본 t-검정으로 분석한 결과 프로그램 효과가 지속된 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 중등교사의 직무스트레스 및 소진을 예방하고 업무를 효율적으로 수행할 수 있는 방법 중의 하나로서 마음챙김 훈련이 유의미함을 밝혔다는데 그 의의가 있다.
