Abstract

This study The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural relationship among social support, job satisfaction, happiness, teacher efficacy. Participants were 249 teachers from teachers' training programs. Descriptive statistics analysis and path analysis were conducted. SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 21.0 were used. As a result of the analysis, it was found that teachers' social support had a significant effect on job satisfaction and happiness, and job satisfaction had a significant effect on happiness and teacher efficacy, but social support and happiness did not directly affect teacher efficacy. However, it was found that social support has a partial mediating effect through a sense of happiness through job satisfaction, and social support has a complete mediation effect through a sense of teacher efficacy through job satisfaction. This study is considered to be the basic data for preparing a plan to improve the teacher's sense of efficacy, an important factor in determining the quality of public education.

본 연구에서는 교사들의 교수효능감에 미치는 비인지적 요인의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 교사효능감과 관련된 사회적지지, 행복감, 직무만족도 간의 구조적 관계를 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 구글 온라인 설문을 제작하였고 교사연수에 참여하고 있는 전국의 초·중·고 교사들 249명의 자료를 기술통계분석과 경로분석을 실시하였다. SPSS 22.0 과 Amos 21.0를 사용하였다. 분석 결과 교사들의 사회적지지는 직무만족과 행복감에 유의미한 영향을 주었고, 직무만족이 행복감과 교사효능감에 유의미한 영향을 주었지만, 사회적지지와 행복감은 교사효능감에 직접적인 영향을 주지는 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 단, 사회적지지가 직무만족을 통해 행복감으로 부분매개효과가 있으며, 사회적지지가 직무만족을 통해 교사효능감으로 완전매개효과가 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 변인 간 영향관계를 알아봄으로써 공교육의 질을 결정하는 중요한 요인인 교사들의 교사효능감을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안 마련의 기초 자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.
