Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of stress, social support, and resilience on the university life as predictors of college life adjustment. For this purpose, the questionnaires were administered to 145 college students in Busan, and correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis, and mediation analysis were conducted using SPSS 18.0. The main results are as follows. First, the significant factors influencing college life adjustment were stress (B = -.351, p <.01), social support(B = -.210, p <.05) resilience (B = .355, p < .01), 30.6% explanatory power, and resilience was the most influential factor. Among the sub-factors of stress, interpersonal stress and academic stress has a negative effect. In addition, friendship support had a statistically significant effect on social support, and resilience subscale was life satisfaction and cause analysis ability. In addition, stress was found to be partly mediated in the relationship between social support and college life adjustment. Based on this study, the strategies for lowering the stress, improving the resilience of the university students in order to improve the college life adaptation were provided.

본 연구는 대학생의 대학생활적응에 미치는 요인을 규명하고자, 스트레스, 사회적지지, 회복탄력성을 예측요인으로 선정하여 대학생활적응에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 부산에 위치한 D대학교 1,2학년 145명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 SPSS 18.0을 사용하여 기술통계, 상관분석, 중다회귀분석으로 분석한 결과, 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 대학생활적응에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 스트레스(B= -.351, p< .01), 사회적지지(B= .210, p< .05) 회복탄력성(B= .355, p< .01)이며 30.6%의 설명력을 보였고 회복탄력성의 영향력이 가장 높았다. 스트레스의 하위요인인 대인관계스트레스와 학업스트레스는 부적인 영향을 미쳤다. 또한, 사회적지지 중 친구지지가 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미쳤고, 회복탄력성 하위요인으로는 생활만족도와 원인분석력이 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 또한, 사회적지지와 대학생활적응의 관계에서 스트레스는 부분매개를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 대학생의 대학생활적응을 높이기 위해 스트레스를 낮추고, 회복탄력성을 높이는 전략이 필요하고 이를 위한 프로그램 개발 방안에 대해 제언하였다.
