Abstract

In this study, we examine the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between grit and self-determination in college students in order to provide basic data for ensuring the positive development required for college students to understand their collective, as well as their individual, abilities. This study comprised college students sampled from three cities in Chungcheong province: Daejeon, Sejong, and Cheonan. The collected data were analyzed using AMOS 22.0 statistical software. The results of this study are as follows. First, firmness of mind and courage in the face of hardship (based on the resilience of college students) was found to have a statistically significant, positive effect on that resilience. Second, this grit in college students has a statistically significant, positive effect on their self-determination. Third, the resilience from college students' self-determination revealed that resilience has a statistically significant, positive impact on their self-determination. Fourth, we found after verifying the mediating effect of resilience in the relationship between grit and self-determination of college students that resilience has a mediating effect in the relationship between grit and self-determination. This study is significant in that it provided empirical grounds for self-determination in college students by identifying the relationship between the motivational variables affecting their self-determination.

사회 초년생을 준비하는 대학생 시기는 사회적으로 도태되지 않게 성공적인 진로와 삶을 위해서는 전 생애에 걸쳐서 자신의 인생에 구체적인 목표를 설정하고 이를 성취해 나가기 위하여 결과와 방향의 안목을 가지고 성공적인 태도를 취하는 행동적 판단이 중요하다. 따라서 대학생들이 자신의 미래에 대한 생각과 개인의 능력을 이해하기 위한 긍정적인 발달을 촉진할 수 있는 기초자료를 제시하기 위해 대학생의 그릿과 자기결정성의 관계에서 회복탄력성의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 충청도의 대전, 세종, 천안 소재 대학생을 대상으로 진행되었으며, 자료 분석은 AMOS 22.0 프로그램을 활용하여 구조방정식 모형을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 대학생의 그릿이 회복탄력성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보면, 대학생의 그릿은 회복탄력성에 유의한 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 대학생의 그릿은 자기 결정성에 유의한 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 대학생의 회복탄력성은 자기결정성에 유의한 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 회복탄력성의 매개효과를 검증한 결과, 그릿과 자기결정성 관계에서 회복탄력성은 부분매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 대학생의 자기결정성에 미치는 동기적 변인들의 관계를 밝힘으로써 대학생들의 자기주도적 성격의 자기결정성을 키워줄 수 있는 경험적 근거를 제시하였다.
