평생교육기관의 교육담당자 직무특성과 고용관계특성이 직무몰입에 미치는 영향

The purpose of this study was to adapt a model about the relationships among job characteristics, employment relationship characteristics, and job involvement to lifelong education staff’s job situation. We tested a research model which contained job and employment relationship characteristics as independent variables, and job involvement as dependant variable based on the literature reviews. Job characteristics contained 5 sub-variables(skill diversity, task identity, task significance, task interdependence, and feedback). And employment relationship characteristics contained 4 sub-variables(job security, rewards fairness, opportunities for participation, and co-workers' relationship). Data were collected from 206 lifelong education staff who were working at Korean lifelong education institutions. To test the research model, hierarchial regression analysis was performed. The results were summarized as follow: First, correlational coefficients among sub-variables of independent variables and dependent variable were statistically significant. Second, among job characteristics, skill diversity, task significance, task interdependence, and feedback had positive effects on the job involvement. Third, among employment relationship characteristics, co-workers' relationship had positive effects on the job involvement. The implications as well as the limitations of the research are drawn from the results and discussed.
