Abstract

This study examined whether there are differences in the empathic ability and emotional intelligence by college students' counseling course-taking experience and major. The research subjects were 313 college students, and an independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Duncan post-hoc test were conducted for hypothesis testing. A difference in empathic ability was observed according to the students' sex, major, and counseling course-taking experience. A difference in emotional intelligence according to their sex and counseling course-taking experience was noted. Empathic ability was higher in females than in males, higher in the school of social sciences than in the school of science and technology, and higher in those who had counseling education than in those who did not. Emotional intelligence was higher in women than in men, and higher in students who had counseling education than in those who did not. Consequently, the effectiveness of counseling education was confirmed. On the other hand, a limitation of theoretical education was found in that there was no difference in emotional intelligence according to the major. Although empathic ability can be improved by education, the current curriculum has not improved it. This study has significance that it emphasizes the need for supplementing the curriculum, like practice or utilizing art media.

본 연구는 대학생의 상담 관련 강의 수강 경험과 전공에 따라 공감능력과 감성지능이 차이를 보이는지 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 경기도 소재 대학의 대학생 313명이며, 가설 검증을 위해 통계적 분석 방법으로 독립표본 t검정과 일원배치 분산분석 및 Duncan의 사후검정을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 대학생의 공감능력은 성별, 전공, 상담관련 강의 수강 경험에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 대학생의 감성지능은 성별, 상담 관련 강의 수강 경험에 따라 차이가 있었다. 공감능력은 여자가 남자보다, 사회과학대학이 과학기술융합대학보다, 상담교육을 받은 학생이 받지 않은 학생보다 높게 나타났고, 감성지능은 여자가 남자보다, 상담교육을 받은 학생이 받지 않은 학생보다 높게 나타났다. 연구결과, 현재의 상담교육의 효과성은 확인할 수 있었으나, 전공에 따른 감성지능의 차이가 나타나지 않았다는 점에서 이론적 교육의 한계를 확인할 수 있었고, 교육을 통해 향상시킬 수 있는 공감능력이 현재의 커리큘럼으로 향상되지 못했다는 결과를 통해 실습 혹은 예술 매체 활용 등 상담 관련 교육 커리큘럼을 수정 혹은 보완해야 할 필요성을 부각시켰다는 점에서 본 연구의 의의를 찾을 수 있다.
