Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study is to confirm the mediating effect of self-efficacy in lifelong education ca-reer decisions by college students who have completed lifelong education field training.
 Methods To this end, a survey was conducted on students who completed the lifelong education field practice course at H University from February 6 to April 25, 2023, and 230 copies were used for analysis. The collected data used the IBM SPSS 26.0 statistical program. Hierarchical regression analysis and bootstrapping were conducted according to the procedures of Baron and Kenny (1986) to verify the mediating effect.
 Results First, as a result of analyzing the correlation between lifelong education field practice, self-efficacy, and lifelong education career decision, it was found that there was a significant static correlation between each variable. Second, among the sub-factors of lifelong education field practice, self-efficacy showed a partial medi-ating effect in the relationship between the factors of practice institutions and lifelong education career decisions. Third, as a result of verifying the mediating effect of self-efficacy in the relationship between lifelong education field practice and lifelong education career decision, partial mediating role.
 Conclusions In this study, it was confirmed that self-efficacy had a partial mediating effect in the career decision of college students who have experienced lifelong education field training.
