Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting the communication competency in nursing students. Method: The subjects of this study were 171 nursing students from two universities located in G and P cities. The collected data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and Multiple Regression Analysis. Results: As a result of multiple regression analysis, the significant predictors of communication competency of nursing students were interpersonal relationships(β=.404, p<.001) and positive thinking(β=.274, p=.014). Communication competency was explained 47.9% of variance in interpersonal relationship and positive thinking. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that interpersonal relationship and positive thinking in nursing students were the influential factor on communication competency. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that it is necessary to find ways to improve interpersonal relationship and positive thinking in order to improve communication competency of nursing students, and it is considered to be useful as basic data for developing intervention programs to improve communication competency.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 의사소통능력과 긍정적 사고 및 대인관계와의 관련성을 파악하고 의사소통능력에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 G시와 P시에 소재하는 2개 대학 간호학과 학생 171명이었고 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였다. 수집된 자료는 빈도와 백분율, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's 상관관계 분석 및 다중회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 간호대학생의 의사소통능력에 미치는 영향요인을 확인하기 위해 다중회귀분석 결과, 대인관계(β=.404, p<.001)가 큰 영향을 보이는 변수로 나타났고, 긍정적 사고(β=.274, p=.014)가 그 다음 순서로 나타났다. 회귀모형의 적합도에 대한 F 통계량은 20.940(p<.001)로 유의하였고, 설명력은 47.9%인 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 간호대학생의 의사소통능력 향상을 위해서는 대인관계와 긍정적 사고를 높일 수 있는 다양한 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다. 본 연구는 간호대학생의 의사소통능력을 향상시키기 위한 프로그램을 개발하는데 기초자료로 유용하게 활용될 것이다.
