대학생의 MBTI이해가 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향 : 자기수용의 조절효과

Abstract

The aim of this study was to explore how college students’ MBTI understanding influences their life satisfaction and the moderating effect of self-acceptance on this relationship. For this study, an online survey of 351 college students on MBTI understanding, life satisfaction, and self-acceptance was conducted and analyzed. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and SPSS Macro bootstrapping methods were applied to verify the moderating effects. The result showed that, first, college students’ higher MBTI understanding was associated with higher life satisfaction. Second, self-acceptance moderated the effect of MBTI understanding on life satisfaction of college students. In the group with high self-acceptance, life satisfaction was higher in the group with high MBTI understanding than in the group with low MBTI understanding. But, the group with low self-acceptance showed less change in life satisfaction with MBTI understanding. Based on these findings, we discussed how self-acceptance works in that MBTI understanding increases the satisfaction with the life of college students.
