In regard to satisfaction with clinical practice, they gave the highest score of 3.58 to the content of the clinical practice, and they gave the lowest score of 3.09 to practice hours. 3. They gave higher scores to autonomy of clinical practice when their awareness of dental hygienist at the time of college admission and after experiencing the clinical practice was better and when they were more satisfied with their major. 4. They gave the highest scores to satisfaction with the clinical practice when they voluntarily chose the department of dental hygiene in terms of motivation for major selection, when their awareness of dental hygiene at the time of college admission and after experiencing the clinical practice was better and when they were more satisfied with their major. 5.

본 연구는 치위생학과 재학생들의 학업적 자아개념에 미치는 영향요인을 분석하여 치위생 교육 개발에 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 대상자 모집 공지를 한 후 참여의사를 밝힌 자에게 본 연구의 목적과 연구방법을 설명하고 이에 동의를 한 치위생학과 재학생 168명을 대상으로 하였다. 2016년 10월 10일~10월 21일까지 설문조사를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 치과위생사의 직업적 이미지는 전공만족도에 정(+)의 영향(${\beta}=.43$, p<.001)을 미쳤으며, 전공만족도는 학업적 자아개념에 정(+)의 영향(${\beta}=.38$, p<.001)을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 치위생학과 재학생들의 학업적 자아개념을 위해 전공만족도를 높여야 하며 이를 위해 재학생들이 인식하는 치과위생사들의 직업적 이미지를 향상시킬 수 있는 제도적 개선이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
