Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effect of career resilience and its sub-variables in the relationship between career barriers and career preparation behavior. Toward this end, 338 college students were selected as subjects of the study. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 25.0 and the process macro of Hayes. The main research results are as follows. First, the career barrier showed significant negative correlations with career preparation behavior, career resilience, and the sub-variables of career resilience. The career preparation behavior showed significant positive correlations with career resilience and the sub-variables of career resilience. Second, the career resilience showed a significant complete mediating effect in the relationship between career barrier and career preparation behavior. This means that when career resilience was mediated, career barriers affected career preparation behavior through career resilience; however, career barrier did not directly affect career preparation behavior. Third, the achievement aspiration and career self-reliance showed a significant mediating effect in the relationship between career barrier and career preparation behavior. However, self-confidence, coping with change, and relationship utilization did not show significant mediating effects. Based on these findings, the implications of career education and suggestions for subsequent research were discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 진로장벽과 진로준비행동의 관계에서 진로탄력성과 진로탄력성의 하위변인들(자기신뢰, 성취열망, 진로자립, 변화대처, 관계활용)의 매개 효과를 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 대학생 338명을 연구 대상으로 선정하고, 이들의 자료를 SPSS 25.0과 Hayes의 Process Macro를 통해 분석하였다. 주요연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 진로장벽은 진로준비행동, 진로탄력성 및 진로탄력성 하위변인들과 유의미한 부적 상관을 나타냈고, 진로준비행동은 진로탄력성 및 진로탄력성 하위변인들과 유의미한 정적 상관을 나타냈다. 둘째, 진로장벽과 진로준비행동의 관계에서 진로탄력성은 유의미한 완전 매개효과를 보였다. 이는 진로탄력성이 매개했을 때 진로장벽은 진로탄력성을 통해서 진로준비행동에 영향을 미치지만, 진로장벽이 직접 진로준비행동에 영향을 미치지는 못한다는 것을 의미한다. 셋째, 진로장벽과 진로준비 행동의 관계에서 진로탄력성의 하위변인들 중 성취열망과 진로자립만이 유의미한 매개효과가 있고, 자기신뢰, 변화대처, 관계활용은 유의미한 매개효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 진로교육의 시사점 및 후속연구를 위한 제안을 논하였다.
