Abstract

This study is a descriptive research study aimed at confirming the mediating effect of empathy ability in the relationship between interpersonal ability and adjustment to college life for freshman in nursing college. The study subjects were 179 freshman from the nursing department of four universities. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from June 11 to June 18, 2018. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that the interpersonal ability and empathy ability of the nursing college freshman were factors influencing the adjustment to college life, and that the empathy ability had a partial mediating effect in the relationship between the interpersonal ability and the adjustment to college life. These results suggest that it is necessary to develop and apply curriculum and extra-curricular programs that can enhance students' empathy ability as a way to improve the adjustment to college life in the freshman. Therefore, repeated studies including various variables related to college life adjustmente of freshmen in nursing colleges are needed in the future.

본 연구는 간호대학 신입생을 대상으로 대인관계 능력과 대학생활적응 간의 관계에서 공감 능력의 매개 효과를 확인하고자 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구 대상자는 연구 참여에 동의한 4개 대학의 간호학과 신입생 179명이다. 자료수집은 2018년 6월 11일부터 6월 18일까지 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 수집하였다. 자료는 SPSS 21.0을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 간호대학 신입생의 공감 능력과 대인관계 능력이 대학생활적응에 영향을 미치는 요인임을 확인하였고, 대인관계 능력과 대학생활적응과의 관계에서 공감 능력이 부분 매개 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 간호대학 신입생의 대학생활적응을 높이는 방안으로 학생들의 공감 능력을 높일 수 있는 교과 및 비교과 프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 필요함을 시사한다. 따라서, 향후 간호대학 신입생의 대학생활적응력과 관련된 다양한 변수를 포함한 반복연구가 필요하다.
