Abstract

This study is prepared to provide fundamental data for constructing learning system to reinforce learning facilitation and improve learning effect for adult college students by testing the medium effect of learning motivation in the relation of social support, service quality of university education, and learning engagement. For this objective, A survey was conducted with 573 adult college students attending 2-to-3-year colleges and universities located in Daegu metropolitan City and Gyeongsangbuk-do. The analyzed research results are as follows. First, learning motivation had partial medium effect in the relation of social support and learning engagement. Second, learning motivation seemed to have complete medium effect in the relation of service quality of university education and learning engagement. The above research results suggest that continuous development and efforts are needed to establish various support systems and improve educational services in order to increase adult college students' immersion in learning.

본 연구는 성인대학생의 사회적지지, 대학교육서비스품질, 학습몰입의 관계에서 학습동기의 매개효과를 검증하여 성인대학생의 학습효과 향상과 학습촉진 강화를 위한 학습체계 구축에 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 대구광역시와 경상북도에 위치한 2~3년제와 4년제 대학교에 재학 중인 성인대학생 573명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석한 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 사회적지지와 학습몰입의 관계에서 학습동기는 부분 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 대학교육서비스품질과 학습몰입의 관계에서 학습동기는 완전 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과는 성인대학생의 학습몰입을 높이기 위해서는 다양한 지지체계 구축과 교육서비스 향상을 위한 지속적인 개발과 노력이 필요하다는 것을 시사한다.
