Abstract

This study aims to investigate factors that affect nursing students' communication skills. For the study, 232 nursing students in a certain region were surveyed from September to October 2020. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple regression. As a result, empathy, self-acceptance, and interpersonal competence were found to have a significant effect on the students' communication skills with an explanatory power of 50.7%. As for the relationship between general characteristics and communication skills, variations were seen due to gender (F=-3.86, p=.000) and satisfaction with college life (F=3.02, p=.019). Also, self-acceptance (r=.346, p<.001), empathy (r=.531, p<.001), and interpersonal competence (r=.680, p<.001) had a statistically significant positive correlation with communication skills. In conclusion, to improve the communication skills of nursing students, it is necessary to have specialized communication programs that reflect the curriculum and also programs that help increase empathy and interpersonal competence based on the gender of the student.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 의사소통능력에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고자 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 일부 지역 간호대학생을 대상으로 하였으며, 연구기간은 2020년 9월부터 10월까지이었고, 분석대상은 232명 이었다. 자료는 기술적 통계, t-tset, ANOVA, Pearson correlation과 Stepwise multiple regression으로 분석 하였다. 그 결과 의사소통능력에 영향을 미치는 요인은 공감능력, 자기수용, 대인관계 유능성이 의사소통능력에 유의한 영향을 미치며 설명력은 50.7%이었다. 일반적 특성에 따른 의사소통능력과의 관련성에서는 성별(F=-3.86, p=.000), 대학생활 만족도(F=3.02, p=.019)에서 차이가 있었으며, 의사소통능력과의 상관관계에서는 자기수용(r=.346, p<.001), 공감능력과(r=.531, p<.001), 대인관계 유능성(r=.680, p<.001)과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 간호대학생의 의사소통능력을 높이기 위해서는 공감능력과 대인관계 유능성을 높일 수 있는 교과과정과 프로그램 적용 및 성별의 특성을 고려한 전문적인 의사소통 프로그램을 강화하는 것이 필요하다고 하겠다.
