Abstract

Aim(s): This study aims to explore the relationship between multicultural awareness, multicultural acceptance and sensitivity of nursing students in the midst of rapid changes in multiculturalism, and to explore the direction for improving multicultural awareness as health care workers in the future. A survey was conducted among 135 nursing students from two universities in one region, and 108 students, excluding random responses and dropouts, were the final subjects for analysis. For data analysis, frequency analysis, correlation analysis, reliability analysis and mediation effects were tested using SPSS and process Macros. The results confirmed a statistically significant relationship between multicultural awareness and multicultural acceptance (r=.572, p<.001). The relationship between mutual cultural sensitivity, multicultural acceptance (r=.650, p<.001) and multicultural awareness (r=.456, p<.001) also showed a significant positive correlation. In addition, the effect of mutual cultural sensitivity was confirmed in the relationship between multicultural awareness and multicultural acceptance. As a result, in the relationship between multicultural awareness and multicultural acceptability, intercultural sensitivity ranged from 0.188 to 0.554, and the 95% confidence interval did not include 0; thus, indirect effect was statistically significant. Considering these results, it was confirmed that it is important to increase multicultural awareness and intercultural sensitivity in order to increase multicultural acceptance.

본 연구는 다문화의 급격한 변화 속에서 간호대학생의 다문화 인식, 다문화 수용성 및 상호문화감수성의 관계를 탐색하고 향후 보건의료인력으로서 다문화 인식 제고를 위한 방향을 모색하는데 있다. 본 연구는 일 개지역의 2개 대학 간호학과 학생 135명을 대상으로 설문을 조사하였으며 임의응답 및 중도탈락을 제외한 108명을 최종분석대상으로 하였다. 자료의 분석은 SPSS와 Process macro를 활용하여 빈도분석, 상관분석, 신뢰도 분석과 매개효과를 검증하였다. 연구 결과는 다문화 인식과 다문화 수용성의 관계는 통계적으로 유의한 관계가 확인되었다(r=.572, p<.001). 상호문화감수성과 다문화수용성(r=.650, p<.001), 다문화 인식(r=.456, p<.001)과의 관계도 유의한 정적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 다문화 인식과 다문화 수용성 간의 관계에서도 상호문화감수성의 매개 효과가 있었다. 즉, 다문화 인식과 다문화 수용성 간의 관계에서 상호문화감수성은 0.188-0.554의 범위로 95% 신뢰구간에서 0이 포함되지 않아 간접효과가 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 고려했을 때 다문화 수용성을 높이기 위해서는 다문화 인식에 대한 제고와 더불어 상호문화 감수성을 높이는 것이 중요함을 확인하였다.
