본 연구에서는 초·중·고 교사들을 대상으로 교사의 배경요인에 따른 행복감 실태를 조사하고 교사의 행복감에 대한 사회적지지와 직무만족의 영향력을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 구글 온라인 설문을 활용하여 교사연수에 참여하고 있는 교사들 249명의 자료를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 교사들의 행복감에 있어서 성별이나 경력에서는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 초등학교 교사들이 고등학교 교사들보다 행복도가 높은 것으로 나타났고, 사회적지지와 직무만족의 모든 하위요인이 행복감의 내적행복, 외적행복, 자기조절행복과 유의미한 정적상관을 보였다. 또한 교사들이 지각한 사회적지지와 직무만족이 내적행복에 미치는 영향에서는 교직의식, 자율성, 신뢰로운 동맹이 내적행복에 정적 영향을, 발전성, 신뢰로운 동맹, 조언, 교직의식이 외적몰입에, 사회적 소속, 자율성, 발전성, 혁신성이 자기조절행복에 정적인 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 활용하여 교사들의 행복감을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 마련할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
