Abstract

This study was done to compare college adjustment and life stress of nursing students by grades in Korea. A total of 417 participants were recruited using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire from October 15 to October 30, 2019. The results of the study showed that the college adjustment of nursing students was significantly higher in 4th grade (3.45 ± 0.53) than 1st grade (3.18 ± 0.61). Life stress was highest in first grade (0.91 ± 0.46), followed by fourth grade, second grade, and third grade. college adaptation and life stress by grade were inversely correlated in all grades. Therefore, it is necessary to check the difference between college adaptation and life stress according to grade level, and to prepare customized programs according to the grades, so that students can make a good college adjustment through stress management of nursing college students.

본 연구는 간호대학생들의 학년에 따른 대학적응과 생활 스트레스를 비교하여 성공적인 대학적응 방안을 마련하기 위해 수행되었다. 본 연구는 서술적 연구로서, 경기도에 위치한 일개 대학의 간호학과에 재학 중인 1, 2, 3, 4학년 총 417명의 학생에게 온라인 설문조사를 진행하여 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN 20.0 프로그램을 사용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 간호대학생의 대학적응은 4학년이(3.45±0.53), 1학년보다(3.18±0.61) 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났고, 생활 스트레스는 1학년이 가장 높았고(0.91±0.46), 4학년, 2학년 3학년 순으로 나타났다. 학년에 따른 대학적응과 생활 스트레스는 각 학년에서 역 상관관계를 보였다. 따라서, 본 연구결과에서 나타난 학년에 따른 대학적응 및 생활 스트레스의 하위요소별 차이를 토대로, 학년의 특성에 맞는 맞춤형 프로그램을 마련하여 간호대학생의 스트레스 관리를 통해 대학적응을 잘할 수 있도록 노력해야 할 것이다.
