신입간호대학생의 전공만족도, 그릿, 학업적 자기효능감이 학업지속의향에 미치는 영향

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that influence the academic persistence intentions of new nursing students, specifically focusing on major satisfaction, grit, and academic self-efficacy. Data collection was conducted from May 7 to May 24, 2024, targeting a total of 148 new nursing students enrolled in three universities located in G city. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS 25.0 program, applying frequency analysis, means, standard deviations, independent t-tests, and one-way ANOVA, with Scheffé’s test used for post hoc analysis. Correlations between variables were identified using Pearson’s correlation analysis, and factors influencing academic persistence intentions were analyzed through multiple regression analysis. The results showed that major satisfaction(M=4.08), grit(M=3.26), academic self-efficacy(M =5.60), and academic persistence intentions(M=3.93) were at significant levels. There was a significant positive correlation between academic persistence intentions and major satisfaction(r= .36, p< .01) and academic self-efficacy(r= .43, p< .01), but no significant correlation was found with grit(r= .15, p= .05). The major factors influencing academic persistence intentions were major satisfaction(β= .20, p= .01) and academic self-efficacy(β= .33, p< .01), and the regression model was statistically significant(F=21.78, p< .01), with an explanatory power of 26%. Based on these findings, it is necessary to develop strategies to enhance major satisfaction and academic self-efficacy to promote the academic persistence of new nursing students.
