Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the interpersonal relation, ego resilience and self-leadership on nursing student's adaptation to college life and to present the basic data to assist in adaptation of college life. The study included 130 students from three university in B city, K-namdo and K-bukdo. A questionnaire survey was conducted on the subjects to determine their interpersonal relation, ego resilience, self-leadership and adaptation to college life with nursing as a major. The data were collected from 1, september, 2015 to 30, september using selfreport, questionnaires and analyzed through descriptive statistics, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression using SPSS 21.0. The mean score of the adaptation to college life was 5.27(±0.75), interpersonal relation 2.16(±0.43), ego resilience was 3.15(±0.65), self-leadership was 2.61(±0.47). There were positive correlations between adaptation to college life and interpersonal relation(r=.44, p<.001), ego resilience(r=.48, p<.001) and self-leadership(r=.72, p<.001). The significant factors influencing the adaptation to college life were self-resilience(β=.25, p<.001) and self-leadership(β=.31, p<.001), which explained 54% of variance in the adaptation college life. These results indicated that it is necessary to determine factors affecting adaptation to college life and increase adaptations to college among nursing students. |
