다문화 청소년의 성취동기와 진로장벽 인식

Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study is to identify the mediating effect of parental support and social withdrawal on the relationship between achievement motivation and perceived career barriers of multi-cultural adolescents. Methods For this purpose, this study used data of 1,197 multi-cultural adolescents who participated in the 8th year of the “Multicultural Adolescent Panel Survey(MAPS)” established by the National Youth Policy Institute (NYPI) and analyzed using SPSS 25.0 and PROCESS Macro 3.1. Results The results are as follows. First, multi-cultural adolescents' achievement motivation had a significant effect on perceived career barriers. Second, multi-cultural adolescents' parental support significantly mediated the relationship between achievement motivation and perceived career barriers. Third, there was a significant mediation effect of multi-cultural adolescents' social withdrawal on the relationship between achievement motivation and perceived career barriers. Fourth, multi-cultural adolescents' parental support and social withdrawal sequentially mediated the relation between achievement motivation and percieved career barriers. Conclusions Multi-cultural adolescents' parental support and social withdrawal partially mediate the relationship between achievement motivation and perceived career barriers. This study implies that when developing the counseling program to reduce multicultural adolescents’ perceived career barriers, researchers should give greater weight to achievement motivation and, at the same time, actively consider parental support and social withdrawal.
