Abstract

This is descriptive research aimed at determining the relations with appearance satisfaction and self-efficacy in controlling job-seeking stress and at providing basic data necessary to decide on an education direction for better career maturity and explore psychological resources. For data collection, convenience sampling was performed among dental hygiene students consenting to participate in the research in Chungcheong and Jeolla Provinces to complete a self-administered questionnaire from November 25 to December 13, 2019. Appearance satisfaction was positively correlated with self-efficacy and was negatively correlated with job-seeking stress; self-efficacy was negatively correlated with job-seeking stress. The factors affecting job-seeking stress were self-efficacy, appearance satisfaction, and major satisfaction. It would be necessary to develop a practical counseling program targeting the combination of positive appearance acceptance and improvement in self-efficacy on the basis of correct aesthetic values with the objective of reinforcing job-seeking competence intensively among dental hygiene majors.

본 연구의 목적은 치위생학과 학생들의 취업스트레스를 조절하고자 외모만족도, 자아효능감과의 관련성을 파악하여 진로성숙도 향상을 위한 교육적 방향 구축과 심리적 자원을 탐색하는데 기초자료를 제공하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료 수집은 2019년 11월 25일부터 12월 13일까지 충청·전라도 치위생학과에 재학 중인 연구에 동의한 학생들을 대상으로 편의추출하여 자기기입식 설문법을 작성하였다. 외모만족도는 자아효능감과 양의 상관관계를 나타냈고, 취업스트레스와는 음의 상관관계를 나타냈으며, 자아효능감과 취업스트레스는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 취업스트레스의 영향요인은 자아효능감, 외모만족도, 전공만족도로 나타났다. 이에 치위생전공 대학생들의 취업역량 집중강화를 위해 올바른 미적 가치관에 기반한 긍정적인 외모 수용과 자아효능감 증진을 융합한 실제적인 상담프로그램이 고려될 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
