부모의 진로지원행동이 다문화가정 청소년의 성취동기와 진로결정수준에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Objectives The purposes of this study were to analyze for adolescents among children of multicultural families, this study examined how the career support behaviors of parents from multicultural families affect their children's career decision level.
 Methods A structural equation model was established based on the relationship between parent-perceived ca-reer support, child-perceived career support, child-perceived career interference, child achievement motivation, and child career decision-making using multicultural youth panel data from the Korea Youth Policy Institute.
 Results The higher the level of career support of parents of multicultural families, the higher the achievement motivation of their children. According to gender, male children were found to be more aware of their parents' ca-reer support than female children. The higher the urban area and household income, the more parents perceived themselves to provide career support for their children. It was recognized that the higher the educational level of multicultural parents and the younger they were, the more career support they gave to their children, and the same was true for their children. Even if the level of career support for their children, perceived by parents, in-creased, it did not directly increase their children's career decision-making. Between the level of career support perceived by parents and their children's career decision-making, children's achievement motivation had a partial mediating effect.
 Conclusions In multicultural family parent education, father education should be strengthened, and at the same time, education on career guidance should be implemented. Career education considering the characteristics of multicultural families is necessary. Parents of multicultural families need to raise awareness of the importance of being involved in career decision-making for their children. There is a need for career education for youth from multicultural families appropriate to the times. It is necessary to additionally explore how internal characteristics such as parents' psychological characteristics and values affect their children's career perception.
