Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between self-leadership, psychological empowerment and job satisfaction in dental hygienists, who form major manpower directly affecting dental care service, and to develop a plan for good-quality intra-organizational personal improvement. To collect data, convenience sampling was performed from May 1 to June 10, 2017 among clinical dental hygienists working at dental hospitals and clinics in Chungcheong and Jeolla Provinces and a self-administered questionnaire was used. Self-leadership was positively correlated with psychological empowerment and job satisfaction; psychological empowerment was positively correlated with job satisfaction. The factors for job satisfaction included psychological empowerment, dental system and self-conformity, and self-leadership. It has been confirmed that there is correlation among self-leadership, psychological empowerment, and job satisfaction in clinical dental hygienists; therefore, it is necessary to use positive psychological empowerment, establish a proactive self-leadership convergence program, and pay attention to the good direction and management of dental organizations with the objective of improving job satisfaction in dental hygienists.

본 연구의 목적은 치과의료서비스에 직접적인 영향을 주는 주요 인력인 치과위생사의 셀프리더십, 심리적 임파워먼트와 직무만족도간의 관련성을 규명하여 조직 내 양질의 인적 향상 방안을 마련하고자 시행되었다. 자료수집은 2017년 5월 1일부터 6월 10일까지 대전·전라지역에 치과 병·의원에서 근무하는 임상치과위생사를 편의 표본추출 하였으며, 자기기입식 방법으로 작성하였다. 셀프리더십은 심리적 임파워먼트, 직무만족도와 정의 상관관계를 나타냈으며, 심리적 임파워먼트와 직무만족도도 정의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 심리적 임파워먼트, 치과시스템과 본인 적합성, 셀프리더십이 직무만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 나타났다. 이에 임상치과위생사의 셀프리더십, 심리적 임파워먼트 및 직무만족도와 관련성이 있음이 파악되었고, 치과위생사들의 직무만족도를 향상시키기 위해 긍정적인 심리적 임파워먼트 활용과 적극적인 셀프리더십 융합 프로그램을 정립하여 올바른 치과 조직의 방향성 확보와 운영에 관심을 가질 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
