Abstract

The purpose of the study is to identify the grit and career preparation behaviors of healthcare major college students and to analyze factors associated with their academic achievements. A structured questionnaire survey was carried on 241 students at an university in D-city. The scores for grit, career preparation behavior, and academic achievements were 3.32, 2.87, and 3.44, respectively. The study results show statistical differences among academic achievements, motivation to choose major, and satisfaction with major and university. The strong and positive effects of grit and career preparation on academic achievements were found. The satisfaction with major(β=.279 p<.001) and grit (β=.224 p=.001) explained 23% of academic achievements. The results suggest various intervention programs based on multiple factors associated with grit and major satisfaction in order to enhance academic achievements.

이 연구는 보건계열 대학생의 그릿, 진로준비 행동을 살펴보고 학업 성취도에 미치는 요인을 확인하고자 하였다. D소재 일개 4년제 대학 보건계열 대학생 241명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였다. 연구결과 연구대상자의 그릿은 3.32점, 진로준비 행동은 2.87점, 학업 성취도는 3.44점이었다. 일반적 특성에 따른 학업 성취도는 학과선택 동기, 전공 만족도, 학교생활 만족도에 따라 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 그릿, 진로준비 행동, 학업 성취도의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 학업 성취도는 그릿, 진로준비 행동과 유의한 정(+)의 상관관계를 보였다. 학업 성취도에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 전공 만족도(β=.279 p<.001)와 그릿(β=.224 p=.001)이었으며 설명력은 23%였다. 전공 만족도와 그릿에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 확인하여 다양한 학습 전략을 모색하여 학업 성취도를 향상 시킬 수 있는 중재 프로그램이 마련되어야 할 것이다.
