미용사의 여가유능감과 직업만족도와의 관계

Abstract

In response to rapid social changes, people’s interest in aesthetics has risen considerably. As a result, a cosmetologists’ role has become more important. Furthermore, more cosmetologists have engaged in leisure activities for self-management and self-development. This study attempted to investigate the relationships between leisure competence and job satisfaction. For this, a questionnaire survey was performed among cosmetologists in Seoul and Gangwon from October 2019 to March 2020. A total of 298 copies were used for the final analysis. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0, and the results found the following: According to factor analysis, leisure competence was divided into cognitive leisure competence and social leisure competence, while job satisfaction was classified into job satisfaction, actual job satisfaction, and mental job satisfaction. In addition, validity and reliability were confirmed for each factor. In correlation analysis, a positive correlation was found at a .001 significance level. According to regression analysis, social leisure competence had a positive effect on job satisfaction (p<.05), mental job satisfaction (p<.001), and actual job satisfaction (p<.001). In contrast, cognitive leisure competence revealed a positive influence only on actual job satisfaction (p<.001). Therefore, it is anticipated that cosmetologists could have satisfaction and pride as business owners and professionals if they could enhance the quality of life through active leisure activities.
