Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between high school teachers' grit and stress coping strategies and to understand differences in stress coping strategies by cluster types of grit. 226 in-service teachers participated in the survey who took the professional development program in the national educational training institute. Results are as follows. First, perseverance of effort in grit was the positively independent variable toward task-oriented and emotion-oriented strategies. The avoidance-oriented strategy was negatively influenced by consistency of interest in grit. Also, the clusters of high grit and high perseverance of effort in grit showed higher means in task-oriented and emotion-oriented strategies than the cluster of low grit. Finally, researchers discussed the importance of strengthening high school teachers' grit for them to cope with job stress effectively.

이 연구는 고등학교 교사들의 그릿과 스트레스 대응행동 간의 관계를 분석하고, 그릿의 군집유형별 직무 스트레스 대응행동의 차이를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. 교육부 중앙교육연수원에서 실시하는 연수에 참여한 고등학교 교사 226명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 그릿의 노력 지속성은 도전적 및 정서완화 대응행동에 정적 예측변인이었고, 흥미일관성은 회피적 대응행동에 부적 예측변인이었다. 그리고 높은 그릿과 높은 노력 군집 유형이 낮은 그릿 군집 유형보다 도전적 대응과 정서완화 대응행동의 평균이 높았다. 연구 결과를 토대로 고등학교 교사들이 직무 스트레스에 효과적으로 대응하도록 지원하기 위해서 교사의 그릿을 강화할 필요성을 시사점으로 제시하였다.
