Abstract

With the continuous development of higher education, the academic satisfaction of college students has become one of the important indicators to evaluate the quality of education and student development. Therefore, this study aims to explore the role of gender in academic attitude, sincerity, and academic satisfaction of college students in China. The subject of the study was selected by using the purposive sampling method, and data were collected using the survey method. 400 questionnaires were distributed to college students in Guangzhou, China, and 388 questionnaires were used for the final analysis. For statistical analysis, SPSS PC+ Win. ver. 26.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2 were used, and frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and conditional indirect effect analysis were performed. The research results are as follows. First, academic attitude had a significant positive correlation with sincerity, gender, and academic satisfaction. Second, gender moderated the intermediary role of academic attitude on academic satisfaction through sincerity. This study indicated that different strategies are needed according to gender to improve academic satisfaction using academic attitude and sincerity of college students. Based on the results, plans to improve the academic satisfaction of college students were suggested.

고등교육의 지속적인 발전에 따라 대학생의 학업만족도는 교육의 질과 학생의 발달을 평가하는 중요한 지표 중 하나가 되었다. 이에 본 연구는 중국 대학생의 학업태도, 성실성, 학업만족도에 있어 성별의 역할을 탐색하고자 하였다. 연구대상은 의도적 표집방법을 활용하여 선정하였으며, 설문조사를 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 중국 광저우 지역 대학생을 대상으로 400부의 설문지를 배포하였으며, 388부의 설문지를 최종 분석에 활용하였다. 통계분석을 위해 SPSS PC++ Win. ver. 26.0과 SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2를 활용하였으며, 빈도분석, 신뢰도 분석, 상관분석, 조건부 간접 효과 분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학업태도는 성실성, 성별, 학업만족도와 유의미한 정적 상관관계가 있었다. 둘째, 성별은 학업태도가 성실성을 통해 학업만족도에 미치는 영향을 조절 매개하였다. 본 연구 결과는 대학생의 학업태도와 성실성을 활용하여 학업만족도를 향상시키기 위해서는 성별에 따라 상이한 전략이 필요함을 시사하였다. 이를 토대로 대학생의 학업만족도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다.
