공립유치원 교사의 역할수행에 영향을 주는 교사 내·외적 요인

The purpose of this study was to investigate the variables that influence public kindergarten teachers' role performance. A sample of 320 public kindergarten teachers in Gyeonggi-Do was selected randomly. Teacher's career, educational background, age, self-concept, and awareness of teaching profession, class size, age of classroom students, and organizational climate were examined as possible factors affecting teachers' role performance. Results showed that all factors except class size were related to teachers' role performance. The most significant impact on public kindergarten teachers' role performance was teacher autonomy in organizational climate.
