Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between job stress and coping style in college students. Participants were 314 students in a college. Data were collected using a self administered questionnaire. The survey was conducted from May 02, 2018 to May 28, 2018. There were statistically significant correlations between personality stress, family environmental stress, academic stress, school environment stress and emotion - centered coping style among sub - variables of job stress, Job anxiety stress was significantly correlated with social support seeking and emotion - centered coping style. Since college students' emotional stress coping style is related to depressive emotional and physical health problems, it is necessary to provide a psychological treatment program for early detection and coping with psychological support services, and a mixed service such as education, lecture, and camp. In addition, it is thought that strategic action skill training (plan, method, and technology) is needed to change from emotion - centered coping style to problem - solving style.

본 연구는 대학생을 대상으로 취업 스트레스와 스트레스 대처방식과의 관계를 확인하고자 일대학교의 학생 314명을 대상으로 2018년 05월 02일부터 05월 28일까지 자가기입식 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였다. 취업스트레스의 하위변수 중 성격 스트레스, 가족환경 스트레스, 학업 스트레스, 학교환경 스트레스는 정서중심적 대처방식과 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계가 있었고, 취업불안 스트레스는 사회적 지지추구와 정서중심적 대처방식과 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 대학생들의 정서중심적 스트레스 대처방식은 우울 같은 정서와 신체상의 건강 문제와 관련이 있으므로 심리지원서비스를 통한 조기 발견과 이의 대처에 관한 심리치료 프로그램 및 교육, 특강, 캠프 등의 혼합 서비스 제공이 필요하다. 또한 정서중심적 대처방식에서 문제해결 중심으로 전환하기 위한 전략적 행동 기술훈련(계획,방법,기술)이 필요하다고 생각된다.
