Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out the mediation effect of college adaption for the relationship between learning flow and university dropout in local university. For this study, 281 university students in Chungbuk region were applied to assess the mediation effect of college adaption for learning flow and university dropout by using confirmatory factor analysis, hierarchical multiple regression of Baron and Kenny, and Sobel test. The results show that more learning flow tended to have more difficultly in university dropout, and it was founded that academic and social adjustment for university adaption(mediator) partially mediated the influence of learning flow (independent variable) on univeristy dropout (dependent variable), institutional adjustment was fully mediated, and personal-emotional adjustment was no mediation effect. Based on the results of this study, we suggest a implication to decrease university dropout through increasing learning flow and university adaption.

본 연구는 지방대학교에서 학습몰입과 학업중단과의 관계에서 대학생활적응의 매개효과를 탐색하는 것이 목적이다. 이를 위해 충북소재 대학생 281명을 대상으로 확증적 요인분석, Baron and Kenny 의 3단계 위계적 회귀분석 및 Sobel 검정을 적용하여 학습몰입과 학업중단에 있어 대학생활적응의 매개적 효과를 검증하였다. 분석결과 학습몰입이 높을수록 학업중단이 낮게 나타나며, 대학생활적응의 하위요인들 중 학업적응, 사회적 적응은 학습몰입과 학업중단에 미치는 영향을 부분매개하며, 대학환경적응은 완전매개 하였으며, 개인-정서적응은 매개효과가 존재하지 않았다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 대학생의 학습몰입을 높이고 매개변인인 대학생활적응을 증가시켜 학업중단을 낮추기 위한 학교의 지원과 환경이 필요함을 시사한다.
