Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating effects of career preparation behavior on nursing professionalism related factors of nursing students. The subjects were 265 students in the first, second, third, and fourth grades of nursing schools in the Gyeongbuk area. Data were collected from May 7, 2018 to May 25, 2018 using structured questionnaires. Data were analyzed by t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression analysis based on descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation) using the SPSS 22.0 program. The results of this study showed that career identity and career attitude maturity have a partial mediation effect on career preparation behavior in relation to nursing professionalism. Career attitude maturity (${\beta}=.38$), career identity (${\beta}=.17$), and career preparation behavior (${\beta}=.14$) were significant factors affecting nursing professionalism and the explanatory power of these variables was 19%. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and apply educational methods to improve career preparation behaviors and enhance professionalism of nursing students. In addition, there is a need for follow-up research on the structural relationship between career preparation behaviors, which are concrete and practical actions related to nurse's careers, and how they affect other career-related variables.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생들의 간호전문직관 관련요인에서 진로준비행동의 매개효과를 검증하기 위해 실시한 서술적 조사연구이다. 대상자는 경북지역에 소재한 대학의 간호학과 학생 1, 2, 3, 4학년 265명이며, 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 2018년 5월 7일부터 5월 25일까지 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 22.0 Program을 이용하여 기술통계(빈도, 백분율, 평균, 표준편차)를 실시하고, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation coefficient, Multiple regression analysis로 분석하였다. 연구결과 진로정체감과 진로태도성숙은 간호전문직관과의 영향관계에서 진로준비행동이 부분매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 간호전문직관에 유의한 영향을 미치는 요인은 진로태도성숙(${\beta}=.38$), 진로정체감(${\beta}=.17$), 진로준비행동(${\beta}=.14$)이었으며, 이들 변수들의 설명력은 19%로 나타났다. 따라서 간호대학생들의 간호전문직관을 높이기 위해서는 매개효과인 진로준비행동을 향상시킬 수 있는 교육방법의 개발 및 적용이 필요할 것으로 보인다. 그와 더불어 진로와 관련된 구체적이고 실천적 행동인 진로준비행동이 진로관련 다른 변인들에 대해서 어떠한 영향을 받고, 어떤 영향을 미치는가에 대한 구조적 관계에 대한 후속연구의 필요성이 제기된다.
