Abstract

The purpose of this study is, targeting 88 students in the department of English education for Children, D University, to examine the relationships between self-esteem, major satisfaction, career identity, and university life adjustment. A survey was performed, and collected questionnaires were analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 22 using reliability analysis, factorial analysis, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, t-test, variance analysis, correlation and multiple regression analysis. As a result of the analysis, self-esteem, career identity, major satisfaction and career identity had high correlations with university life adjustment, in order. Self-esteem (${\beta}=.664$, p=.000) and major satisfaction(${\beta}=.349$, p=.000) influenced university life adjustment. In order to raise the university life adjustment ability of students in the department of English education for children, it is needed to develop systematic and specific programs for improving self-esteem and major satisfaction.

본 연구는 D대학 아동영어교육학과 재학생 88명을 대상으로 자아존중감, 전공만족도, 진로정체감 및 대학생 활적응과의 관계를 조사하였으며, 수집된 자료는 IBM SPSS Statistics 22를 이용하여 신뢰도분석, 요인분석, 빈도분석, 기술통계량, t-검정과 분산분석, 상관분석, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 자아존중감, 진로정체감, 전공만족도 및 대학생활 적응 간에는 모두 유의한 정적인 상관관계를 보였으며, 대학생활과 가장 상관관계가 높은 것은 자아존중감, 전공만족도, 진로정체감 순이었다. 대학생활적응에 영향을 미치는 것은 자아존중감(${\beta}=.664$, p=.000)과 전공만족도(${\beta}=.349$, p=.000)이었다. 아동영어교육학과 재학생의 대학생활 적응력을 높이기 위해서는 자아존중감, 전공만족도를 증진하기 위한 아동영어교육학과 특성에 맞는 체계적이고 구체적인 프로그램이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
