Abstract

This study examined the effects of work values and the career decision level on the major commitment of the university students majoring in social welfare. For this purpose, a survey of 351 undergraduate students majoring in social welfare at 4 universities located in Kangwon-do was conducted and the data were analyzed. The work values consisted of intrinsic values and extrinsic values. The career decision level was measured by the career decision scale (CDS) and the major commitment was measured by the flow state scale (FSS). The research findings are as follows. First, the career decision level (3.43) and major commitment (3.58) of the university students majoring in social welfare were slightly higher than the mid-point on the 5 point Likert scale. In addition, the intrinsic work value (4.05) were higher than the extrinsic work value (3.34). Second, the intrinsic work values and career decision level were positively correlated with the major commitment. Third, the extrinsic work value had a negative effect on the major commitment (${\beta}=-.34$, p<.001); however, the intrinsic work value (${\beta}=.31$, p<.001) and career decision level (${\beta}=.18$, p<.001) had a positive effects on the major commitment. This paper also discusses the theoretical and practical implications for university student's work values, career decision level, and major commitment based on the research findings.

이 연구는 사회복지학 전공생을 대상으로 직업가치관과 진로결정수준이 전공몰입에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 실시된 것으로, 강원도 소재 4개 대학의 사회복지학과 재학생 351명에게 설문조사를 실시하고 자료를 분석하였다. 직업가치관은 내재적 가치관과 외재적 가치관으로 측정하였고, 진로결정수준은 진로결정수준검사(CDS)를 사용하였으며, 전공몰입은 몰입상태척도(FSS)를 사용하여 측정하였다. 연구 결과를 요약하면 첫째, 사회복지학 전공생의 직업가치관은 내재적 가치관은 4.05로 외재적 가치관 3.34 보다 높았으며, 진로결정수준은 3.43, 전공몰입은 3.54로 중간값 보다 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 외재적 가치관은 진로결정수준(r=-.55, p<.001)과 전공몰입($r=-.51^{***}$)에 부(-)적 상관관계를, 반면에 내재적 가치관은 진로결정수준($r=.47^{***}$)과 정(+)적 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 직업가치관과 진로결정수준이 전공몰입에 미치는 영향에 관한 다중회귀분석 결과 종합모형에서 직업가치관의 외재적 가치관은 전공몰입에 부(-)적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고(${\beta}=-.34$, p<.001), 반면에 내재적 가치관(${\beta}=.31$, p<.001)과 진로결정수준(${\beta}=.18$, p<.001)은 정(+)적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 직업가치관, 진로결정수준 및 전공몰입에 관한 정책적 및 실천적 함의를 논의하였다.
