Abstract
This descriptive study was intended to investigate the influence of spouse support, sexual autonomy, and sexual satisfaction on self-efficacy in married immigrant women in South Korea. Data was collected from 171 married immigrant women from Jan to Mar 2019. The data were analyzed by ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Multiple Regression Analysis. As a result of analysis, spouse support 3.64±0.86, sexual autonomy 3.44±0.93, sexual satisfaction 3.14 ±0.90, self-efficacy 3.06±0.64 and there was a high positive correlation among all variables(p<.01). Sex-related variables, sexual autonomy and sexual satisfaction, were identified as strong predictors for self-efficacy, and their explanation power was 26.9%. The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to develop a variety programs to enhance the self-efficacy of married immigrant women and to seek practical approaches to that effect.
