Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of early childhood teachers' emotional regulation style and teacher efficacy to their burnout. The data was collected by questionnaires method from 157 early childhood teachers in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Ulsan city. The instruments were Scale for Emotional Regulation Styles, Teachers' Sense of Efficacy, and Early Childhood Teachers Burnout Scale. The results of the study were as follows: Early childhood teachers' emotional regulation style and teacher efficacy meaningfully influenced to their burn out. This means early childhood teachers who had higher avoidant/distract regulation style showed higher their burnout and who had higher personal teacher efficacy showed lower their burnout. This research offers further study the influence variables to burnout and find out the effective method of emotional regulation and to enhance teacher efficacy.

본 연구는 정서조절양식과 교사효능감이 유아교사의 소진에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 규명하여, 유아교사의 소진을 감소시키거나 예방할 수 있는 보호요인을 확인하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 경상북도와 울산광역시 소재 유치원과 어린이집에 근무하는 유아교사 157명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과 유아교사의 정서조절양식과 교사효능감은 각각 소진에 영향력이 있었는데, 회피-분산적 양식을 많이 사용할수록 소진이 많았고, 개인적 교사효능감이 높을수록 소진이 적었다. 이 결과는 정서조절양식과 교사효능감이 유아교사의 소진을 의미 있게 설명하는 변인임을 시사하는 것으로, 유아교사가 효과적인 정서조절양식을 사용하도록 돕고 교사효능감을 증진시키는 방안을 모색하는 것이 필요하다고 본다.
