Abstract

This study determined the relationship between grit and self-regulated learning in South Korean teens in order to gain an understanding of grit, which is still at the beginning stage of the research, and to obtain implications for Korean learners' self-directed learning. This study also clarified the process by which learners are involved in selecting effective goals for self-directed learning and to provide cognitive efficacy for learners to encourage efforts to achieve their goals. This study was conducted over the period of 4 weeks, and was mainly targeted at the middle-school and high-school boys and girls in Daejeon, Sejong and Cheonan by using 376 collected survey questionnaires. Confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, structural equation, and Sobel-tests were performed using SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0 for the data analysis. The hypothesis test results of this study are as follows. First, the grit of teens had a positive influence on their academic self-efficacy. Second, the grit of teens had a positive influence on their self-directed learning. Third, academic self-efficacy of teens was found to have a positive effect on their self-directed learning. Fourth, academic self-efficacy of the teens had a mediating effect in the relationship between the teens' grit and self-directed learning.

본 연구는 국내 청소년을 대상으로 그릿과 자기조절 학습 간의 영향력 관계를 규명함으로써 그릿에 대한 이해를 높이고, 학습자의 자율적 학습을 실천하기 위한 시사점을 얻고자 하였다. 또한 학업적 자기효능감의 매개효과를 검증함으로써 학습자가 스스로의 자기주도 학습을 위해 효과적인 목표 선정에 관여하고 목표 성취를 위한 노력 유발에 학습자 내적인 효능감을 제공하는 과정을 밝히고자 하였다. 본 연구는 충청도 소재 중 고등 학생을 대상으로 2019년 7월 1일부터 4주간 설문조사를 실시하여 376부의 자료를 사용하였다. 자료 분석은 SPSS와 AMOS를 활용하여 확인적 요인분석과 신뢰도 및 상관관계 분석, 구조방정식, Sobel-test를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 가설검증결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 청소년의 그릿은 학업적 자기효능감에 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 둘째, 청소년의 그릿은 자기주도 학습에 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 청소년의 학업적 자기효능감은 자기주도 학습에 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 청소년의 그릿과 자기주도 학습 관계에서 학업적 자기효능감은 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
