간호대학생의 공감능력, 전공만족도, 그릿이 대학생활적응에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Purpose : This study aimed to investigate the effects of empathy ability, major satisfaction, and grit on college life adjustment in nursing students. Methods : A total of 272 nursing students participated in this descriptive study. Data was collected using a questionnaire survey between May 25, 2023 and September 10, 2023, SPSS 21.0 was used for the data analysis, which included frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression. Results : Thus, college life adjustment positively correlated with empathy ability, major satisfaction and grit. The factor most significantly affecting college life adjustment was major satisfaction(β＝0.43, ρ＜.001), followed by grit(β＝0.32, ρ＜.001), and adjustment to the personality type(β＝－0.20, ρ＜.001) and department(β＝－0.19, ρ＜.001) and the explanatory power was 70%. Conclusion : These findings suggest that there is a need to develop a systematic curriculum and activate student guidance programs that can develop and operate extracurricular programs to increase major satisfaction from admission to graduation.
