Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of academic stress, subjective happiness, and cognitive flexibility of nursing students, and to identify the mediating effect of cognitive flexibility between learning stress and subjective happiness. The subject of the study was 186 nursing students from a university in J City. The data collection period was from October 4 to October 23, 2023, and the data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The results of the study showed a significant correlation between academic stress, cognitive flexibility, and subjective happiness among nursing students, and it was found that cognitive flexibility partially mediated the relationship between academic stress and subjective happiness. Therefore, in order to improve the subjective well-being of nursing students, it is necessary to develop and apply programs that can reduce academic stress and increase cognitive flexibility.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 학업 스트레스, 주관적 행복감, 인지적 유연성의 정도를 파악하고 학습 스트레스와 주관적 행복감 간의 인지적 유연성의 매개효과를 파악하고자 하였다. 연구대상은 J시 소재 대학의 간호대학생 186명이다. 자료수집기간은 2023년 10월 4일부터 10월 23일까지였으며, 자료분석은 SPSS 23.0을 사용하여 분석하였고, 연구 결과 간호대학생의 학업 스트레스, 인지적 유연성, 주관적 행복감 간의 유의한 상관관계를 보였으며, 학업 스트레스와 주관적 행복감 사이의 관계를 인지적 유연성이 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호대학생의 주관적 행복감을 향상시키기 위해서는 학업 스트레스를 줄이고, 인지적 유연성을 높일 수 있는 프로그램 개발 및 적용이 필요하다.
