Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the trends of research on MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and nursing students, and to suggest directions for nursing education geared to the needs of the future. The literature was searched using the National Assembly Library, Korean Studies Information Service System, DBPIA, Korean Medical database and National Discovery for Science Library to identify studies including MBTI personalty among nursing students. This study selected a total of 22 precedent studies regarding the investigation of MBTI personalty and nursing students. All studies were quantitative study and 63.6% of them were nonexperimental cross-sectional study. The most frequently selected category of variables was cognitive-perceptual related variables includes self-efficacy, self-eseem, academic self efficacy and etc. The most frequent MBTI personality type of nursing students was ISTJ (12.3%) and ESTJ (11.5%) was the second. Based on the findings of this study, longitudinal reasearch is recommanded on MBTI personality type and nursing specialty choice. Implications for teaching and learning strategies, and for using the results of MBTI in nursing students' career guidence are discussed.

본 연구는 현재까지 국내에서 출판된 간호학생 대상의 MBTI 관련 연구를 분석하고 고찰하여, 최근 연구경향 파악 및 간호교육에의 활용방안에 대한 방향을 제시하기 위해 시도되었다. 문헌검색은 국회전자도서관(National Assembly Library, NAL), 한국학술정보(Korean Studies Information Service System, KISS), 국내학술지(DBPIA), 한국의학논문데이터베이스(Korean Medical database, KMbase), 국가과학기술정보센터(National Discovery for Science Library, NDSL)에서 검색어 '(간호 또는 간호학생 또는 학생간호사) and (성격 또는 MBTI)'로 검색하여 중복논문 및 연구대상자나 연구주제가 맞지 않는 논문을 제외한 총 22편의 논문을 분석대상으로 하였다. 22개의 분석대상 논문 모두 양적연구 였으며 63.6%가 비설험연구였다. MBTI와 함께 가장 많이 연구된 변수는 자기효능, 자존감, 학업적 자기효능 등의 인지-지각적 변수가 가장 많이 연구되었고 그 다음으로 학업스타일, 학업성취, 임상수행능력과 같은 학습관련 변수가 가장 많이 연구되었다. 분석대상 논문에서의 대상자들의 MBTI 성격유형을 2차분석한 결과 총 16가지 MBTI 성격유형 중 가장 많은 분포를 보인 유형은 ISTJ(12.3)%, ESTJ(11.5%) 등이었다. 추후 MBTI 성격유형과 근무부서 선택과 같은 종단연구도 필요할 것으로 생각되며, MBTI 성격유형별 효율적 교수 학습방법을 개발하고 적용하는 후속연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
