Mediating effect of self-efficacy in the relationship between learning motivation and learning commitment of Chinese international students
본 연구는 중국 유학생의 학습참여 동기가 학습몰입으로 연결되는 인과관계와 학습동기와 학습몰입 사이에서 자기효 능감의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 연구의 대상은 S시에서 거주하는 중국유학생을 대상으로 2023년 10월 1일부터 10월 31 일까지 자료 수집한 198부를 분석에 활용하였다. 수집된 자 료는 SPSS 25.0을 활용하여 빈도분석, 기술통계, 상관관계, 위 계적 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 중국유학생의 학습동기는 자기효능감과 학습몰입에 정의 영향을 미치는 것 으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 중국유학생의 학습동기와 학습몰입의 관계에서 자기효능감의 매개효과를 확인하였다. 이중 학습몰 입의 하위요인인 감성몰입만이 자기효능감의 관계에서 매개 효과가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이는 중국유학생의 학습동기 는 자기효능감을 증진하여 학습몰입을 높인다는 것을 의미한 다. 이를 통해 중국유학생의 학습몰입을 높일 수 있는 대학 교육에서의 실무적 시사점을 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있 다.
In this study, the causal relationship that the motivation of Chinese international students to participate in learning leads to learning commitment was verified, and the mediating effect of self-efficacy between learning motivation and learning commitment was verified. The subject of this study was data collected from October 1, 2023 to October 31, Chinese international students living in S city, and 198 copies were used for analysis. The collected data were subjected to frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis using SPSS 25.0. As a result of the study, first, it was confirmed that the learning motivation of Chinese international students had a positive effect on self-efficacy and learning commitment. Second, the mediating effect of self-efficacy was confirmed in the relationship between learning motivation and learning commitment of Chinese international students. Among them, only emotional commitment, a sub-factor of learning commitment, was found to have a mediating effect in the relationship of self-efficacy. This means that the learning motivation of Chinese international students increases their learning commitment by enhancing self-efficacy. Through this, it is significant in that it presents practical implications for university education that can increase the learning commitment of Chinese international students.
