Abstract

Major satisfaction and self-directed learning are important variables for future career decision through career decision, and it is a precondition in the process of making reasonable career decision. In this study, we examined the effects of self-directed learning, which is being studied in various fields besides major satisfaction and career, which are found to be the most influential factors in career decision level, on career decision level of university students. The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of satisfaction, self-directed learning and career decision level for 4-year university students in Busan and Kyungnam. A total of 300 copies of the questionnaires were distributed to 253 copies of the final data (95.5% effective data rate), excluding those with missing or inadequate responses. In order to analyze the research data, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using SPSS Ver.22 program. The results obtained are as follows. First, the difference of major satisfaction, self-directed learning and career decision level of university students showed that gender and major had influence on major satisfaction, and career decision level had influence on grade. Second, university students' career decision level, major satisfaction, and self-directed learning all showed correlation. Third, the degree of satisfaction of university students showed a statistically significant effect on career decision level. In other words, the higher the career satisfaction, the higher the career decision level, and only the general satisfaction of the sub factors showed a statistically significant effect. Fourth, self-directed learning of university students showed a partial effect on career decision level. In other words, the higher the learning motivation and the learning strategy, the higher the career decision level, and the statistically significant effect was shown. In order to increase the career decision level of university students, it is necessary to provide active support to improve their major satisfaction and self-directed learning from the secondary education, and special education that can form the overall satisfaction of the major. In addition, it will be necessary to improve the atmosphere in which students can naturally improve the class, and to provide psychological counseling separately from counseling focusing on career and employment counseling. Therefore, this study will help to understand the importance of career counseling and education, and it is expected that it will be able to provide basic data for developing career guidance program and career-related program necessary for establishment of customized career education policy. Implications and limitations of this study are discussed.
