The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of childcare teachers' ego-resilience and directors, co-workers and family's social support to childcare teachers' burnout. The participants in this study were 326 childcare teachers from Daejeon metropolitan city and Chungnam province. They responded to the 'Maslach Burnout Inventory', 'Ego-resilience Scale', and 'Social Support Scale'. The collected data were analyzed by t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's productive correlation, stepwise multiple regression, Duncan test for post hoc test, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ for reliability, and factor analysis for validity by SPSS PC program (18.0 version). The results were as follows; first, there were significant differences in childcare teachers' burnout scores in relation to the educational levels of childcare teachers, their working hours, children's number per class, and the ages of the children they teach. Second, there were significant negative correlations (r = -.11~-.62) among childcare teachers' ego-resilience, directors, teaching colleagues and family's social supports, and their levels of burnout. Finally, childcare teachers' ego-resilience and teaching colleagues' levels of social support helped explain about 43% the childcare teachers' burnout total scores and about 17~39% of their sub-scores.

Objective: This study examines the generational characteristics and job perceptions of early childhood teachers from Generations X, M, and Z. Methods: Seventeen teachers were selected based on their career and the types of childcare centers they worked in. Focus group interviews explored their job perceptions, teaching methods, career intentions, and strategies to attract future teachers. Results: The results revealed both positive and negative generational perceptions, with Generation X and M noted for diverse job experiences and Generation Z for digital skills. Individual differences were also observed. All generations reported low job satisfaction due to societal perceptions and environmental changes. Many teachers plan to change jobs. The study suggests utilizing generational strengths for peer support to enhance professional development. Conclusion/Implications: Furthermore, improvements in societal perception and treatment of childcare jobs are needed to attract future teachers. The findings suggest implications for enhanced intergenerational communication and collaboration in the childcare field.

이 연구의 목적은 보육전공 학생들의 보육교사 적성이 교사전문성 인식에 영향을 미치는 요인은 무엇인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 A시에 소재한 예비보육교사 216명을 대상으로 질문지를 사용하여 실시하였다. 자료처리 및 분석은 SPSS 통계패키지 프로그램을 활용하여 빈도분석, 평균과 표준편차를 구하였다. 또한 신뢰도검증을 위하여 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$를 산출하였고, 각 변인간의 관련성을 알아보기 위해 상관관계분석과 다면적 회귀분석 방법을 활용하였다. 연구결과에 대하여 첫째, 보육전공 학생들이 지각한 보육교사 적성에서는 영유아에 대한 친화력과 업무에 대한 소명감이 교사전문성 인식에서는 사회적 필요성과 직업윤리가 높게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 예비보육교사들의 보육교사 적성, 교사전문성 인식에서 통계적으로 유의미한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 예비보육교사들의 보육교사 적성의 하위요인이 교사전문성 인식의 하위요인 모두에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과로 볼 때, 보육전공 학생들의 보육교사 적성에 대한 중요성을 인식하고 질 높은 보육서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 명확하고 올바르고 긍정적인 보육교사 적성이 형성될 수 있도록 다양한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구의 목적은 보육교사와 예비교사의 응급상황에 대한 대처 인식, 응급처치 방법에 대한 인식이 어떠한지 살펴보고, 이들 변인간의 차이를 알아보는데 있다. 연구 대상은 충청남도에 위치한 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사 188명과 동일 지역 소재 대학의 보육관련학과에 재학 중인 예비교사 70명을 대상으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 빈도와 백분율로 처리하였고, 차이검증을 위해 교차분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 응급상황에 대한 대처 인식 중 응급상황 발생 시 대처능력과 가장 많이 발생하는 응급상황에 대한 답변은 보육교사와 예비교사가 차이를 나타냈다. 심폐소생술 인식과 이에 대한 교육 참여인식은 보육교사와 예비교사 모두 인식하고 있었다. 둘째, 응급상황에 따른 처치방법에 대한 인식에서 오답률이 높은 상황으로 보육교사와 예비교사 전체는 끼임, 중독, 구토, 물림 순으로 나타났다. 각 변인별로 살펴보면, 보육교사는 중독, 끼임, 구토, 물림 순인데 반해, 예비교사는 끼임, 구토, 중독, 물림 순으로 나타나 세부적으로는 차이를 나타냈다. 보육교사와 예비교사가 차이를 나타낸 상황으로 출혈(상처), 고열, 심폐소생술로 모두 보육교사의 정답률이 높았다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 다양한 응급처치 상황에 대한 실습교육이 필요함을 알 수 있다.
