대학생의 대처유연성과 주도적 대처가 학업소진에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Objectives This study verified whether college students' coping flexibility and proactive coping predict academic burnout, and additional hierarchical regression analysis was conducted to examine whether coping flexibility and proactive coping predicted academic burnout even when other variables(state anxiety and hypervigilance) known to be related to academic burnout were controlled.
 Methods From June 1 to June 6, 2021, 232 college students were recruited from the online communities of five universities, and participants accessed the announced link and conducted an online survey once. The measured scales Coping Flexibility Questionnaire (COFLEX), Proactive Coping Inventory (PCI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Y (STAI-Y), Brief Hypervigilance (BHS), and Korean Academic Burnout Scale. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0.
 Results First, academic burnout showed a significant correlation with control variables state anxiety and hypervigilance, and independent variables coping flexibility and proactive coping. Second, both coping flexibility and proactive coping were significant predictors for academic burnout, and the higher the coping flexibility and proactive coping, the lower the level of academic burnout. Third, coping flexibility and proactive coping significantly predicted academic burnout even after controlling the effects of state anxiety and hypervigilance.
 Conclusions These results suggest that interventions that promote coping flexibility and proactive coping in college students can help alleviate the level of academic burnout.
