Abstract

The purpose of this study was to understand the structural relationships of the kindergarten teachers' role performance with the teaching efficacy and job stress. To achieve the research goal, this study conducted a survey targeting a total of 300 teachers, vice principals and principals working for infant educational institutes located in Gyeonggi-do, and analyzed 253 copies of the survey in total. The study used a structural equation to design a structural equation-based model to look into the structural relationships related to the role performance with the teaching efficacy and job stress. The collected data was then analyzed by AMOS 18.0 to estimate the correspondence and the parameter of the model. According to the results of the analysis, the role performance of kindergarten teachers was observed to have an immediate influence on the teaching efficacy. The role performance of kindergarten teachers was directly connected to job stress. The job stress had an indirect relationship with the role performance of kindergarten teachers through the teaching efficacy. The teaching efficacy of the kindergarten teachers was confirmed to have immediate association with the job stress of infant teachers.

본 연구의 목적은 유치원교사의 역할수행과 직무스트레스의 관계에서 교사효능감의 매개적 관계를 밝혀보는 것이다. 이를 위하여 경기도 지역에 소재한 유치원에 근무하는 교사 253명을 대상으로 유치원교사의 역할수행, 교사효능감, 직무스트레스를 측정하였다. 유치원교사의 역할수행, 교사효능감, 직무스트레스 간의 구조적 관계를 알아보기 위해 구조방정식모델을 설정한 후, 모형을 검증하기 위하여 수집된 자료를 AMOS 18.0을 이용하여 모델의 부합도와 모수치를 추정하였다. 그 결과 첫째, 유치원교사의 역할수행은 교사효능감에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유치원교사의 역할수행은 직무스트레스에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 유치원교사의 역할수행은 교사효능감을 통하여 직무스트레스에 간접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 유치원교사의 교사효능감은 유아교사의 직무스트레스에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
