Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the personality of 141 pre-service early childhood teachers who will be in charge of the quality of education in the early childhood curriculum and to verify the differences in the career resilience according to the personality types. Career resilirnce, which measures the ability to cope with various problems and create ideas according to the work environment, was judged to be a very important factor for teacher-child interaction and successful operation of the early childhood curriculum. The results of the study showed that, among personality types, in the case of extraversion and conscientiousness, groups with average scores or higher scored higher in creativity, flexibility, challenging spirit, and future orientation than the groups below. In the case of the openness personality, higher scores in creativity, flexibility and challenging spirit, and in the case of the agreeable personality, the group showed significantly higher scores in flexibility and future orientation. In the case of the neurotic personality, on the contrary, the group with below average score received higher scores in flexibility, challenging spirit, and future orientation. The significance of this study is that it suggests the need for comprehensive programs such as various extracurricular programs, curricula, and counseling to help and promote the formation of more positive personalities of pre-service early childhood teachers.

본 연구는 교육의 질을 담당하게 될 141명의 예비유아교사들의 성격에 따른 진로탄력성의 차이를 검증해 보고자 하였다. 직업 환경에 따른 다양한 문제해결 대처능력과 아이디어의 창출 능력을 가늠하는 진로탄력성은 교사-유아상호작용 및 유아교육과정의 성공적인 운영을 위해 매우 중요한 요소라 판단하였다. 연구의 결과는 성격의 유형 중외향성, 성실성 성격의 경우, 평균점수 이상의 집단이 평균이하의 집단에 비해 진로탄력성의 창의성, 유연성, 도전정신, 미래지향성에서 모두 높은 점수를 나타냈으며, 개방성 성격의 경우는 창의성 유연성, 도전정신에서, 친화성 성격의 경우는 유연성, 미래지향성에서 유의미하게 높은 점수를 나타냈다. 신경증 성격의 경우는 반대로 평균점수 이하인 집단이 유연성, 도전정신, 미래지향성에서 높은 점수를 받았다. 예비유아교사들의 긍정적인 성격 형성을 도모하고자 하는 다양한 비교과 프로그램 및 교육과정, 상담 등 포괄적인 프로그램들의 필요성을 시사한 점에 연구의 의의가 있다고 하겠다.
