청소년방과후아카데미 지도자의 직무만족, 스트레스요인 및 이에 따른 참여청소년의 방과후아카데미 만족도 및 심리사회적응의 차이

This study was undertaken to examine the factors which influence the psychological adjustment of youth leaders who are working for youth‐after‐school‐academy programs. It also sought to investigate the relationship with the adolescents' life satisfaction and the psychological adjustment of those participating in youth‐after‐school‐academy programs. A total of 785 adolescents and 60 youth leaders of youth‐after‐school‐academy programs completed a questionnaire. The results of this study are as follows. Firstly, job satisfaction and additional income influenced the intention of the youth‐after‐school‐academy leaders to remain in their positions, and a sense of achievement and emotional exhaustion influenced their job satisfaction. Secondly, the job satisfaction of the youth leaders was positively related to a sense of achievement and their intention to remain in their positions and emotional exhaustion were influenced negatively. Inaddition, the greater the job stress, the more emotional exhaustion was experienced by the subjects. Thirdly, life satisfaction, a sense of achievement, self‐esteem and the self‐efficacy of the adolescents who were participating in youth‐after‐school‐academy programs were influenced by the level of the psychological adjustment of the youth leaders. These results indicate that the methods to improve youth leaders' sense of achievement and job satisfaction and reduce their levels of job stress and emotional exhaustion are all very important for the improvement of the effects of youth‐after‐school‐academy programs, and the life satisfaction of the adolescents.
