본 연구는 병원 근로자들의 직무스트레스와 소진의 관계에 미치는 펀 리더십과 근로자 놀이성의 조절효과를 규명함으로써 향후 병원조직의 효과적인 인적자원관리에 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 연구자료는 부산지역 2개 병원에 근무하는 근로자(의사 제외)를 대상으로 구조화된 자기기입식 설문지를 통하여 수집하였으며 총 230부의 설문지를 배부하여 이 중 207부의 설문을 회수하였다. 설문 문항에는 응답자의 일반적 특성, 직무스트레스 특성, 펀 리더십, 근로자 놀이성, 소진 등을 측정하는 항목들이 포함되었다. 자료 분석을 위해 SPSS WIN 18.0을 이용하여 빈도분석, 신뢰도분석, 상관관계분석과 조절회귀분석 등을 수행하였다. 주요 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 직무스트레스와 소진의 관계에서 펀 리더십은 직접 효과는 물론 조절효과도 유의하게 나타나지 않았다. 둘째, 직무스트레스와 소진의 관계에서 근로자 놀이성은 소진에 직접적인 효과를 주는 변수임과 동시에, 낮은 유의수준(p=0.053)에서지만 직무스트레스와의 상호작용을 통해 소진을 감소시키는 조절효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 병원 근로자의 업무 수행과 관련해 비교적 관심을 받지 못했던 펀 리더십이나 근로자 놀이성 등과 같은 성격적 특성이 소진을 감소시키는 유효한 조절변수가 될 수 있음을 검증해 보았다는 점에 그 의의가 있으며, 다만 후속 연구를 통해 추가적인 검증이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

These days, one of the most influential media content on children is 'Carrie and toys'. This content have caused the children to imitate play. There were several features in this play. First, children who play 'Carrie' pursue pleasure voluntarily and positively. But it took a thorough preparation to get that pleasure. Second, the motivation for play was ambiguous. It is a play that follows the person who plays. In the scene of enjoying the play, the inner motivation is obvious, but in the play which follows the play person, it showed the expectation of the external factor, the other person's attention. Third, this play has high regularity and low degree of freedom. The children proceeded to play in a typical sequence and dialogue. Parts that can be freely freed are often scaled down and finished in a formalized form. Fourth, 'Carrie play' built a solid play world. The worlds of play have been established and participants have a new name. But there is no diffusibility.

AHP was used to analyze the preferred elements for effectively designing a play area. The main keywords were derived through case studies of various domestic and foreign play space designs, and each keyword was grouped and a keyword of a higher concept was derived. The results of the comparison of 14 keywords that were finally drawn using AHP for each element were used to derive the priority for the preferred elements. As a result, preference was derived in the order of "Openness", "Safety", and "Diversity" in the morphological properties of the play space, and "Adventure", "Five senses elements", "Visual elements" and "Interactivity" in the content properties of the play space.
