  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting pre-service childcare teachers' job preparation behaviors according to the model of planned behavior theory which has proven useful in predicting various behaviors of human beings, and to provide job search guidance for pre-service childcare teachers in the educational dimension and social welfare dimension. The study model included the factors proposed in the planned behavioral theories such as attitude toward job preparation behavior, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, behavioral intention, and job preparation behaviors. As a result of analyzing the collected data, it was found that there was a statistically significant effect on job preparation behavior through mediation of subjective preparation norms, perceived behavior control, and attitude in that order with regard to job preparation behaviors, and the perceived behavioral control was found to have a direct and indirect effect on job preparation behaviors. Based on this, the theoretical basis for suggesting ways to promote pre-service childcare teachers' job preparation behaviors by raising subjective norms, perceived behavior control, and attitude levels is suggested.
