Abstract

The pursuit of independent self-development in adolescence and the development of self-identity are related to their adaptation in social life. In Korea, too, college is the place where graduates from high school go to advance in society. The purpose of study is to investigate the relationship between self - identity and college life in university students. First, self - identity has a positive effect on academic adjustment. Specifically, goal orientation has a positive effect on academic adjustment. Second, self - identity has a positive effect on emotional adjustment. In detail, self-acceptance, future confidence, and goal orientation were found to affect emotional adaptation. Finally, self - identity did not affect university satisfaction.

청년기에는 사회 생활에의 적응을 위하여 독립적인 자아형성을 추구하고 자아정체감을 발달시켜 나가고 있다. 아울러 한국의 경우 고등학교를 졸업하고 사회진출을 위해 거쳐 가는 곳이 대학이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자아정체감의 형성시기인 대학생을 대상으로 하여 자아정체감과 대학생활과의 영향관계를 살펴봄으로써 향후 사회진출을 위한 자아정체감의 중요성에 대하여 살펴보고자 한다. 연구결과 첫째, 자아정체감은 학업적응에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 세부적으로는 목표지향성이 학업적응에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 자아정체감은 정서적응에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 세부적으로 살펴보면 자기수용성, 미래확신성, 목표지향성은 정서적응에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 자아정체감은 대학만족에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
