Abstract

This study is a concept analysis of membership, using the evolutionary concept analysis method. Literatures published from January 2000 to January 2020 were searched on CINAHL, EBSCO, and websites of professional associations, using keywords including 'Member support', 'Member welfare', 'Professional association', 'Membership', and 'Member benefit.' Finally, 12 articles and 4 professional association website data were selected for analysis. The antecedents of membership comprised two dimensions, viz., the member level, and the association level. The antecedent at the member level included need of members, whereas antecedent at the association level was to set up a new department responsible for memberships. Attributes of the membership included 'member support', 'member professionalization', and 'member solidarity'. The consequences of membership also consisted of two dimensions: increased member satisfaction and professionality, and enhancement of rights and interests at the member level, and improvement of public awareness for the professional association at the association level. The findings of this study suggest that providing proper membership is a desirable direction of the association's member support considering the member's opinion ultimately, and propose future research for membership development. This study significantly provides the contextual basis, by identifying the antecedents, attributes, and consequences of membership.

본 연구는 진화론적 개념 분석 방법을 이용한 회원지원 개념분석 연구이다. '회원지원', '회원복지', 'professional association', 'membership', 'member benefit'을 주요어로 입력하여 2000년 1월부터 2020년 1월까지 출판된 논문을 CINAHL, EBSCO등 국내외 데이터베이스와 웹사이트를 통해 검색하였다. 기준에 부합한 12개 논문, 4개의 전문직종 협회 자료가 선정되었다. 회원지원 개념의 선행요인은 회원 차원과 협회 차원으로 구분되고, 회원 차원의 선행요인은 회원의 요구, 협회 차원의 선행요인은 전담부서 마련이었다. 회원지원 개념의 속성은 '회원 지지화', '회원 전문화', '회원 연대화'였다. 회원지원 개념의 결과요인도 회원 차원과 협회 차원으로 구분되고, 회원차원의 결과요인은 회원의 만족도 증가, 전문성 강화, 권익 향상이며, 협회 차원의 결과요인은 협회에 대한 국민 인식 개선으로 나타났다. 협회지원에 관한 본 연구의 개념분석 결과는 회원들의 목소리와 요구를 수렴하고, 적절한 회원지원을 제공하는 것이 협회의 바람직한 회원지원 방향임을 제시하며, 회원들의 의견을 고려한 회원지원 모델개발 연구를 제언한다. 본 연구는 선행 문헌을 토대로 회원지원이라는 개념의 선행요인, 속성, 결과를 밝힘으로써 맥락적 근거를 마련하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
