Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of communication competence on the relationship between emotional intelligence and self-esteem among nursing students. The study is a cross-sectional survey and the participants were 173 students from one university located in M city. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression and Sobel test to test the significance of a mediation effect using SPSS 21 software. Results of the multiple regression were that communication competence had a significant positive effect on self-esteem and played a partially mediating role between emotional intelligence and self-esteem in nursing students. These findings imply that communication competence is important to improve the level of self-esteem in nursing students. This study highlights the value of fostering communication competence and the need to develop various convergence education strategies to promote communication competence in a balanced way to cultivate nursing students' self-esteem.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 의사소통능력이 감성지능과 자아존중감의 관계에서 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위함이다. 이를 위해 M시의 일개 간호대학 재학생을 대상으로 편의 표집 하였으며, 구조화된 자가 보고식 설문지를 이용하여 최종 173명의 자료를 분석하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계, Independent t-test, ANOVA, 피어슨 상관분석과 다중회귀분석을 실시하였고, 매개효과의 유의성 검증을 위해 sobel test를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 다중회귀분석의 결과 간호대학생의 의사소통능력은 자아존중감에 유의한 양의 영향력이 있으며, 감성지능과 자아존중감 관계에서 부분적 매개 역할을 하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 간호대학생의 의사소통능력이 자아존중감 증진에 중요한 영향을 미치는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 간호대학생의 자아존중감 증진을 위해 의사소통능력 향상의 중요성과 의사소통능력을 균형적으로 강화시키기 위한 다양한 융복합적 교육 전략의 개발과 중재의 필요성을 제시하였다.
