Abstract

As university students' job seeking stress and entrepreneurial intentions increase, the importance of variable research that can be applied to both concepts. However, recent studies researchers looked at only the influence variables in each concept. So they thought about the difference between entrepreneurship and employment. To solve these problems in this study was to verify the moderating effects of core-self evaluation in the relationship between entrepreneurial self-efficacy and entrepreneurial intention, job-seeking stress of university students. The data of 349 university students in korea were collected for the study. The collected data were analyzed with multi-regression modeling. All data collected from the survey were analyzed using with SPSS 21.0 The findings of the study were as follows. First, results showed that entrepreneurial self-efficacy affect entrepreneurial intention directly. Second, core-self evaluation affect job-seeking stress of university students. Finally, it was also found that there was moderating effect of core-self evaluation in relationship between entrepreneurial self-efficacy and job-seeking stress of university students. On the other hand it was found there was no moderating effect of core-self evaluation in relationship between entrepreneurial self-efficacy and entrepreneurial intention. Based on what has been learned through the analyses, The results of this study suggest that an educational system and institutional are needed to increase entrepreneurial efficacy. And It can be seen that the recognition of core self-evaluation is effective for the job seeking stress. Also, the implications and the limitations of the study were presented including some directions for future studies.

대학생들의 취업 스트레스와 창업의도가 높아지면서 두 개념에 동시 적용할 수 있는 변수 연구의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 최근까지의 연구들은 각각의 개념에서 미치는 영향력 변수만을 살펴봤기 때문에 창업과 취업을 구분해서 생각했었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 부분들을 해결하기 위해 창업 효능감을 이용, 취업 스트레스와 창업의도에 미치는 영향력을 살펴보았다. 또한 핵심자기평가의 개념을 조절 변수로 활용해 취업 스트레스와 창업 의지에 추가적으로 어떠한 영향력을 보이는지 살펴보았다. 연구 가설 검증을 위해 전국 349명의 대학생들에게 설문 조사를 실시하였다. 각 변수별로 선행 이론에 근거해서 설문문항을 만들었으며, 특히 핵심자기평가는 자기 효능감과 자기 존중감이 포함된 개념인 능력중심 자기평가와 통제 위치와 신경증 성향이 포함된 정서중심 자기평가의 개념으로 구분해 미치는 영향력의 정도를 세부적으로 구분했다. 분석 결과, 창업 효능감은 창업의도에 강한 영향력을 보여, 기존의 선행 연구와 같은 결과를 보였다. 다음으로 취업 스트레스에는 부정적인 영향력을 보여, 창업 효능감이 있으면 취업에 대한 걱정과 근심을 많이 줄일 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 핵심자기평가의 조절효과를 살펴보면 취업 스트레스에 능력중심은 유의미한 영향력을 보였지만, 정서중심은 영향력을 보이지 않았다. 창업의도역시 능력중심, 정서중심 모두 영향력을 증가 시키지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 창업 효능감을 높일 수 있는 교육 방식과 제도가 필요하고 핵심자기평가에 대한 개인의 인식형성이 취업 스트레스에 효율적으로 작용한다는 것을 알 수 있다.
