Abstract

The purpose of this study was to understand the comprehensive relationship among sense of coherence, clinical practice stress, and major satisfaction of students in the department of dental hygiene. From four local universities, departments of dental hygiene were selected: two departments represented a three-year curriculum system and two represented a four-year curriculum system. Data from the final questionnaires of 319 students were analyzed. Differences between variables were analyzed using t-tests and ANOVAs, and correlations were checked using Pearson's correlation coefficients. Path analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship among clinical practice stress, sense of coherence, and major satisfaction. The results indicated that clinical practice stress had a negative influential relationship with both sense of coherence, and major satisfaction. In addition, sense of coherence had a positive influential relationship with major satisfaction. The direct and indirect effects among factors displayed significant differences, indicating that clinical practice stress has a partial mediation effect on sense of coherence and major satisfaction. Therefore, major satisfaction can be increased by developing and implementing programs to improve sense of coherence.

본 연구는 치위생(학)과 학생의 통합성, 임상실습스트레스, 학과만족도와의 관계를 파악하는 데 목적이 있다. 임상실습을 1회 이상 경험한 치위생(학)과 학생을 편의 추출하여 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 총 319명의 자료를 최종 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 일반적 특성에 따른 임상실습스트레스에서는 학제기준에서는 '4년제' 학생이, 학과선택동기에서는 '주변권유로' 치위생(학)과를 선택한 경우가, 임상실습스트레스가 많은 것으로 나타났다. 학과만족도는 학제기준에서는 '3년제'가, 학과성적에서는 '4.0 이상'대의 학생들이 높게 나타났다. 임상실습횟수에서는 '2회 이하'의 실습을 한 학생들이 가장 높은 학과만족도를 나타냈다. 둘째, 통합성은 임상실습스트레스(p<0.01)와 음의 상관관계를, 학과만족도(p<0.01)와는 양의 상관관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 경로분석 결과 통합성에 따른 임상실습스트레스, 임상실습스트레스에 따른 학과만족도는 모두 부정적 영향관계를 나타냈으며, 통합성에 따른 학과만족도는 정적 영향관계를 나타냈다. 요인간의 직, 간접효과는 모두 유의한 차이를 보였으나 간접효과는 0.06으로 낮게 나타나 통합성과 학과만족도 사이에서 임상실습스트레스는 부분매개효과를 가지나 매우 크지 않은 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 볼 때 통합성, 임상실습스트레스, 학과만족도 간에는 영향관계가 있는 것으로 확인되었으나 간접효과가 낮게 나타난 부분에 대한 충분한 논의를 통하여 확대 후속연구를 제언하며 통합성과 관련한 반복적 연구를 통해 통합성 증진프로그램을 개발하고 학과만족도를 높일 수 있는 방안의 모색이 필요하다.
