Abstract

The study was conducted to understand the effect of major satisfaction of university students majoring public health administration on the career decision level and career preparation behavior by the medium of career decision-making self-efficacy. The analysis result showed that major satisfaction and career decision-making self-efficacy, major satisfaction and career decision level, major satisfaction and career preparation behavior had a statistically significant positive (+) correlation respectively. In addition, the result of a path analysis using AMOS indicated that their major satisfaction level is found to have a direct and indirect effect on career decision level and indirect effect on career preparation behavior, while career decision-making self-efficacy is directly effective against career decision level and career preparation action and major satisfaction exerted an impact on career decision level and career preparation behavior by the medium of career decision-making self-efficacy. Therefore, to improve the level of public health administration university student's career decision and career preparation behavior, systematic and detailed programs and effective plans to improve their major satisfaction and career decision-making self-efficacy will be necessary.

본 연구는 보건행정 전공 대학생의 전공만족도가 진로결정자기효능감을 매개로 진로결정수준과 진로준비행동에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 실시하였다. 분석 결과 전공만족도와 진로결정자기효능감, 전공만족도와 진로결정수준, 전공만족도와 진로준비행동 간에 각각 유의한 정(+)의 상관관계를 나타냈다. AMOS를 이용한 경로 분석결과 전공만족도는 진로결정수준에 대해서는 직접효과 및 간접효과, 진로준비행동에 대해서는 간접효과가 있었고 진로결정자기효능감은 진로결정수준과 진로준비행동에 대해 직접효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 전공만족도는 진로결정자기효능감을 매개로 진로결정수준과 진로준비행동에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 보건행정 전공 대학생의 진로결정수준과 진로준비행동 수준을 높이기 위하여 전공만족도와 진로결정자기효능감의 수준 향상을 위한 체계적이고 구체적인 프로그램과 효과적인 방안의 마련이 필요하다고 생각된다.
