Abstract

This descriptive research study investigated the mediating effect of self-leadership on the relationship between critical thinking and problem solving ability of nursing university students. The data were collected from nursing university students in G city. Korea, from 20 Sep. 2019 through 30 Sep. 2019. General characteristics, critical thinking, problem solving ability and self-leadership were surveyed using structured questionnaires. Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and stepwise multiple regression analysis with SPSS/WIN 21.0. The mediating effect of self-leadership on the relationship between critical thinking and problem solving ability was tested using Baron & Kenny's 3-step hierarchical regression analysis. There were positive correlations between problem solving ability and critical thinking(r=.48, p<.001), between problem solving ability and self-leadership(r=.73, p<.001) and between critical thinking and self-leadership(r=.70, p<.001). In addition, self-leadership had a partial mediating effect(Z=6.64 p<.001) on the relationship between critical thinking and problem-solving ability. Therefore, strengthening of self-leadership is necessary to improve the problem-solving ability of nursing university students. Various strategies through regular education courses and extracurricular activities should be prepared for this purpose.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 비판적 사고와 문제해결 능력 간의 관계에서 셀프리더십의 매개효과를 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 2019년 9월 20일 부터 9월 30일까지 G시 소재의 일 대학 간호학과에 재학 중인 247명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 통하여 일반적 특성, 비판적 사고, 문제해결 능력 및 셀프리더십을 조사하였다. 통계처리는 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 서술적 통계, 분산분석 및 다중회귀분석을 하였으며, 비판적 사고와 문제해결 능력과의 관계에서 셀프리더십의 매개효과는 Baron과 Kenny의 3단계 절차를 이용한 위계적 회귀분석으로 검증하였다. 문제해결 능력은 비판적사고(r=.48, p<.001), 셀프리더십(r=.73 p<.001)과 양의 상관관계가 있었고, 비판적 사고는 셀프리더십(r=.70, p<.001)과 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 또한 비판적 사고와 문제해결 능력과의 관계에서 셀프리더십의 부분매개 효과(β=.47, p<.001)가 있는 것으로 나타났다(Sobel test: Z=6.64, p<.001). 따라서 간호대학생의 문제해결 능력을 향상시키기 위해서는 셀프리더십의 강화가 필요하며 이를 위해 정규 교육과정과 교과 외 활동 프로그램을 통한 다양한 전략이 마련되어야 하겠다.
