초록

본 연구는 유아교사의 임파워먼트와 직무만족도 및 교사-유아상호작용 간 관계를 알아보고, 임파워먼트와 직무만족도가 교사-유아상호작용에 미치는 영향을 대해 고찰하기 위해 수행되었다. 연구대상인 유아교사 550명을 대상으로 설문조사를 통해 각 변인을 측정 후, SPSS 26.0을 활용하여 Pearson 상관관계분석과 중다회귀분석을 실시했다. 연구결과를 요약하면 첫째, 유아교사의 임파워먼트와 직무만족도 수준이 증가할수록 교사-유아상호작용의 수준이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유아교사의 임파워먼트와 직무만족도는 교사-유아상호작용의 질에 정적인 영향을 미치며, 수준 높은 교사-유아상호작용을 예측함에 있어서 임파워먼트가 직무만족도 보다 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of early childhood teachers' empowerment and job satisfaction on their teacher-child interaction. The subjects were 550 early childhood teachers working for young children aged 3 to 5 at kindergartens and daycare centers in South Korea. The survey questionnaires were used to measure main variables. Pearson's correlation analysis and analysis of multiple regression were conducted to test research questions using the SPSS 26.0 Statistical Program. As the results, early childhood teachers' empowerment and job satisfaction were found to have the significantly positive correlation with their teacher-child interaction. In addition, early childhood teachers' empowerment and job satisfaction had significant effects on their level of teacher-child interaction.
