Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine to identify the mediating effects of emotional intelligence in the relation between critical thinking disposition and clinical competence among new graduate nurses immediately after graduation. Subjects were 181 new graduate nurses immediately after graduation. in two general hospitals in C city and K city. Data were collected by self-report questionnaires from February 27 to March 30, 2017. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and Multiple regression and Sobel test to test the significance of a mediation effect using SPSS 23 software. Emotional intelligence were significantly positive correlations with critical thinking disposition(r=.62, p<.001) and clinical competence(r=.60, p<.001) in new graduate nurses immediately after graduation. Emotional intelligence partially mediated the relationship between critical thinking disposition and clinical competence which showed significance in Sobel's test(Z=3.88, p<.001). Theses results indicated that in order to improve the clinical competence of new nurse, it is necessary to develop and test the program for improving not only on the critical thinking disposition but also on the emotional intelligence.

본 연구는 졸업직후 신규간호사의 비판적 사고능력과 임상수행능력과의 관계에서 감성지능의 매개효과를 파악하고자 시도되었다. C시와 K시 소재 2개의 종합병원의 졸업직후 신규간호사 181명을 대상으로 설문지를 이용하여 2017년 2월 27일부터 3월 30일까지 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 23.0을 이용하여 기술통계, Independent t-test, ANOVA, 피어슨 상관분석과 다중회귀분석을 실시하였고, 매개효과의 유의성 검증은 sobel test로 실시하였다. 연구결과 감성지능은 비판적 사고능력(r=.62, p<.001), 임상수행능력(r=.60, p<.001)과 유의한 정의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 비판적 사고능력과 임상수행능력과의 관계에서 부분매개를 하는 것으로 나타났다(Z=3.88, p<.001). 그러므로 졸업직후 신규간호사의 임상수행능력을 향상시키기 위해서는 비판적 사고능력 뿐만 아니라 감성지능을 향상 시킬 수 있는 프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 필요하다.
