간호대학생의 긍정자본심리와 디지털리터러시가 자기주도학습능력에 미치는 영향

This study is a descriptive research study to examine the extent of positive psychological capital, digital literacy and self-directed learning ability of first and second year nursing students and to identify the influencing factors on self-directed learning ability. A total of 218 first and second year students enrolled in the Department of Nursing were used to collect data from 1 to 5 December 2024 using a self-report online questionnaire. The data analysis included frequency analysis, mean and standard deviation calculations, independent sample t-tests, and one-way ANOVA, using the SPSS 25.0 software. Post hoc analysis was conducted using Pearson's correlation to explore the relationships between variables, and stepwise multiple regression analysis was employed to determine the predictors of self-directed learning ability. The results of the study showed that self-directed learning ability of nursing students had a statistically significant positive correlation with positive psychological capital (r= .76, p< .01) and digital literacy (r= .60, p< .01), and the higher the positive psychological capital and digital literacy, the higher the self-directed learning ability. The main variables affecting self-directed learning ability were positive psychological capital (β= .55, p< .01) and digital literacy (β= .22, p< .01), which had an explanatory power of 64.3%. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the level of positive capital psychology and digital literacy and to develop undergraduate educational programmes and student guidance strategies to enhance the self-directed learning ability of junior nursing students.
