The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that influence school life satisfaction based on personal variables, self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, and perception of the educational environment at a medical school in Korea. The data were collected from 228 medical students who agreed to participate in the study at a medical school. The Dundee Ready Medical Environment Measure (DREEM) and the self-esteem scale by Rosenberg were used. Questions measuring satisfaction of medical school life and interpersonal relationships (with professors, with senior/junior students, and with friends) were asked using a 5 point Likert scale. The data were analyzed by t-test, analysis of variance, and multiple regression analysis. The satisfaction of medical school life of male students was significantly higher than female students and increased with years of schooling. In DREEM, the students' perception of teachers decreased by school years. The relationship with senior and junior students of third year students was higher than other school years. The result of the regression analysis to determine the variables that affect satisfaction of medical school life showed that interpersonal relationships with senior and junior students, the students' social self-perception, and the students' perception of learning were significant. The results of this study will help medical schools in their plans to improve the level of satisfaction for the happiness and successful academic achievements of their students.

Accordingly, four types of work-life satisfaction were identified: work-life satisfaction, work-life dissatisfaction, work satisfaction, and life satisfaction. There was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction among married waged workers based on sex, age, educational level, and average monthly income. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction for all workplace-related variables, namely, weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, and family-friendly leave policies. In particular, proportionally higher values of work-life satisfaction were evident among the workers in companies with family-friendly leave policies such as paid leave, menstrual leave, maternity leave, childcare leave, and family events leave, whereas there was a high rate of work-life dissatisfaction among the workers in companies without family-friendly leave policies.

본 연구는 대학축제의 성과를 일상으로의 확대 가능성을 모색하는데 목적이 있다. 대학축제는 지금까지 구성원의 공동체 결집을 통해 대학문화 창조의 중추적 역할을 해왔다. 그러나 최근에 연예인 공연과 기업의 스폰서십 등 상업화에 대한 비판과 함께 대학축제의 기능회복에 대한 목소리가 높다. 대학축제는 일상의 대학생활이 만들어낸 텍스트이기 때문에 일상과 무관할 수 없으며 대학축제 역시 일상의 회복에 그 역할을 수행하여야 한다. Pine & Gilmore의 체험모델을 적용하여 양질의 대학축제 체험을 통해서 만족과 더 나가 일상과의 연결고리로서 교우관계를 개선한다는 것 그리고 학생들의 학교생활에 대한 참여정도 차이에 따라 축제체험 등이 차별적으로 나타난다는 것을 알아보고자 하였다. 대학축제 참가자 195명을 대상으로 자기기입식 설문조사를 진행하였으며 수집된 자료를 토대로 변수간의 관계를 알아보기 위한 회귀분석, 집단 간의 차이를 알아보기 위한 t검정을 실시하였다. 분석결과 대학축제체험은 축제만족에 유의한 영향을 주고(가설1), 축제만족은 재참가의도와 교우관계(가설2, 가설3)에 유의한 영향을 주었다. 또한 대학생활 참여정도가 높은 집단은 그러하지 못한 집단에 비하여 대학축제체험, 축제만족, 재참가의도, 교우관계에 있어 차이를 보여주었다(가설4). 이론적, 실무적 시사점 및 연구의 한계점은 연구 말미에 포함시켰다.
