Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze job importance and job performance of dietitians by kindergarten establishment type. The survey was conducted from July 2 to 19, 2019. A total of 152 responses were used for final analysis (18 public independent, 96 public attached, and 38 private kindergartens). The questionnaire consisted of two parts. The first part consisted of questions asking for respondents’ general characteristics and workplace characteristics, whereas the second part consisted of items measuring job importance and job performance of kindergarten dietitians. Descriptive analysis, One-way Anova, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and paired t-test were used for statistical analysis. Finally, IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis) was conducted to analyze the importance and performance of kindergarten dietitian’s jobs. The findings of the study show that there were differences in dietitians’ duties depending on kindergarten establishment type. There were items that differed significantly by establishment type in terms of job importance and job performance of kindergarten dietitians. In addition, the difference between job importance and job performance showed significant differences between kindergarten establishment type. Moreover, the IPA results show that ‘service management’ item was located in a different quadrant for all types of establishments. This study offers the basis for kindergarten policy in terms of foodservice management, and suggests further research on the kindergarten foodservice environment for each type of establishment.
