Abstract

Purpose: This study was done to examine the effects of the SNS Gratitude Diary Program during the COVID-19 period on grateful disposition, job satisfaction and life satisfaction of medical institution workers. Methods: The study was a nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. The participants were 58 medical institution workers of which 28 were assigned to the experimental group and 30 to the control group. Data were collected from June 3 to August 10, 2020 and analyzed using SPSS Win 18.0 version program. The intervention was conducted 5 times a week for 8 weeks. Results: There were significant differences in reported grateful disposition between the two groups. However, the issue of job satisfaction and life satisfaction were not significant. Conclusion: The SNS Gratitude Diary Program using SNS during the COVID-19 period can be utilized as an effective intervention for grateful disposition. It will be a good solution to lead successful psychological health management.

본 연구는 코로나19 시기에 SNS 감사일기프로그램이 의료기관 종사자의 감사성향, 직무만족과 삶의 만족에 미치는 효과를 확인하기 위하여 시도되었다. 실험군 28명, 대조군 30명 총 58명을 연구 대상으로 한 비동등성 대조군 전후설계 유사실험 연구이다. 데이터는 2020년 6월 3일부터 8월 10일까지 수집하였으며 실험처치는 8주간 5회/주 수행되었고 SPSS Win 18.0을 사용하여 분석하였다. SNS 감사일기프로그램 실시 후 실험군이 대조군보다 감사성향 정도는 증가하였지만 직무만족과 삶의 만족에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이러한 연구결과는 코로나19 시기에 SNS 감사일기 프로그램이 의료기관 종사자의 감사성향을 증가시키는 효과적인 중재로 활용될 수 있으며 심리적 건강관리를 위한 좋은 해결방안이 될 수 있음을 시사한다.
