대학생의 자아정체감이 진로성숙도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

This study analyzed the effect of college students’ self-identity on career maturity by mediating goal achievement and career education. The result of the analysis found that subjectivity and initiative, which are self-identities of college students, do not affect career perception, exploration, and planning, which are career maturity. It suggested that the formation of self-identity remained at a low standard for Korean social college students, which remains a possibility that career maturity is not directly correlated with self-identity. For example, they want to set their course of action, decide, act, and take responsibility accordingly, but they need a stable existence to support themselves and rely on due to anxiety about the uncertain future. However, career education in college is not statistically significant in career maturity, which results in completing career and job search courses or participating in job search-related programs has little to do with career maturity. It is necessary to create a decent program that considers each student’s individuality, coordination, efficiency, and satisfaction. In addition to administrative and financial support, individual career guidance should be reconsidered on their practicality. As a result, it was confirmed that alternatives should be presented to form a higher sense of self-identity for college students, and new follow-up studies and programs should be developed to link career education and career maturity in universities.
