Abstract

This paper empirically analyzed whether or not professional college students' Protean career attitudes affect entrepreneurial intention through employability and entrepreneurship, and whether or not they have practical training experiences can make a difference in such influence. For this reason, a questionnaire survey was conducted on about 240 students at specialized universities in Seoul and the Gyeonggi province for one month beginning on June 1, 2018. Of the 220 collected questionnaires, 214 parts in total were selected for final analysis, except for the 6 parts of the answer sheet which were not sure if there was a missing value or not. The main findings are as follows. First, it has been confirmed that the professional career attitude of Protean has influenced employability and entrepreneurial intention, but has not directly influenced entrepreneurial intention. Secondly, it has been confirmed that the employability and entrepreneurship have have a positive influence on the entrepreneurial intention. Thirdly, it has been confirmed that employability and entrepreneurship play a role as a fully mediated role in the relationship between the attitude of the Protean career and the entrepreneurial intention. Fourthly, considering the characteristics of the vocational college, there is no difference in the influence of employability and entrepreneurship on the entrepreneurial intentions, but the influence of the protean career attitude on employability and entrepreneuriship was different depending on whether or not they had the practical training experiences. This study is to analyze the relationship between the protean career attitude and the entrepreneurial intention in the aspect of employment and entrepreneurial activation of young people.

본 연구는 전문대학생의 프로티언 경력태도가 고용가능성과 기업가정신을 매개로 하여 창업의도에 미치는 영향과 실습경험 유무에 따라 영향력에 차이가 있는지를 실증분석 하였다. 이를 위해 서울 및 수도권 전문대학교에 재학 중인 학생 240여명을 대상으로 2018년 6월 1일부터 1개월에 걸쳐 설문조사를 실시하였다. 회수된 설문지 220부 가운데 결측치가 있거나 불성실한 응답지 6부를 제외하고 총 214부를 최종 분석대상으로 선정하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 프로티언 경력태도는 고용가능성과 기업가정신에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있으나 창업의도에는 직접적으로 영향을 미치지 못하고 있음이 확인되었다. 둘째, 고용가능성과 기업가정신은 창업의도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있음이 확인되었다. 셋째, 고용가능성과 기업가정신이 프로티언 경력태도와 창업의도 간의 관계에서 완전매개역할을 하고 있음이 확인되었다. 넷째, 취업전문기관인 전문대의 특성을 고려하여 실습경험 유무의 조절효과를 분석한 결과, 고용가능성과 기업가정신이 창업의도에 미치는 영향력에는 차이가 없으나 프로티언 경력태도가 고용가능성과 기업가정신에 미치는 영향력에는 실습경험 유무에 따라 차이가 있음이 확인되었다. 본 연구는 직장인만을 대상으로 프로티언 경력태도를 다루었던 기존 연구와는 달리 청년층의 취업 및 창업 활성화 측면에서 대학생의 프로티언 경력태도와 창업의도 간의 관련성을 분석함으로써 연구대상과 범위를 확장하였다.
