Abstract

This study constructed a structural model and examined the fit and significance of the model to identify the influencing factors on the organizational commitment of ROTC cadets. The subjects of this study were 209 male students in grades 3 and 4 ROTC cadets of eight universities located in D, P, and G cities. Data were collected from April 13 to May 29, 2018. The data collected were analyzed by SPSS / WIN 20.0 and AMOS 21.0 programs. A positive correlation was observed between the ROTC instructor's leadership, self-efficacy, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. Six of the six pathways of the hypothetical structural model were statistically significant. The hypothetical model showed a good fit for the data. The model fit indices were ${\chi}^2/df=1.51$, GFI=.98, AGFI=.90, NFI=0.98, NFI=.97, RMR=.02, RMSEA=.05, and TLI=.98. The ROTC Instructor's leadership and self-efficacy had direct and indirect effects on the organizational commitment. Job satisfaction had the strongest direct influence on organizational commitment. This model explained 73% of the variance in organizational commitment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an effective education and intervention program that can enhance the ROTC instructor's leadership, self-efficacy, and job satisfaction to increase the organizational commitment of the ROTC cadets.

본 연구는 학군사관후보생의 조직몰입에 미치는 영향요인을 규명하고자 가설적 모형을 구축하고 모형의 적합도 및 유의성을 검증하였다. 연구대상자는 D시, P시, G도에 소재한 8개 대학교의 학군사관후보생 3, 4학년 남학생 209명을 대상으로 하였으며, 2018년 4월 13일에서 5월 29일까지 자료 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 20.0과 AMOS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 가설적 모형에 대한 적합지수는 ${\chi}^2/df=1.51$, GFI=.98, AGFI=.90, NFI=0.98, NFI=.97, RMR=.02, RMSEA=.05, TLI=.98로 지표 기준을 충족하였다. 연구결과 학군단장 리더십, 자기효능감, 직무만족과 조직몰입 간에는 양의 상관관계가 있었으며, 가설적 구조모형의 6개의 경로 중 6개가 통계적으로 유의하였다. 학군단장 리더십과 자기효능감은 조직몰입에 직접 및 간접효과를 보였으며, 직무만족은 조직몰입에 가장 강한 직접영향을 미치는 요인으로 확인되었고, 학군사관후보생의 조직몰입에 대해 73% 설명하였다. 따라서 본 연구결과 학군사관후보생의 조직몰입을 높이기 위해서는 학군단장 리더십과 자기효능감, 직무만족을 높일 수 있는 효율적인 교육 및 중재프로그램 개발이 필요하다.
