중장년 재취업희망자의 자아존중감과 재취업 욕구 관계에서 성취동기의 매개효과

초록

Objectives The purpose of this study is to test the mediating effect of achievement motivation on the relationship between self-esteem and reemployment desire among reemployment seekers. Methods A survey was conducted among the participants of reemployment training at the Chungbuk Middle-aged Job Hope Center in Chungcheongbuk-do, and 311 reemployment hopefuls were analyzed after excluding the non-respondents. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 25.0 for factor analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation analysis, and Baron and Kenny's three-step regression analysis and Sobel test were used to confirm the mediating effect of achievement motivation. Results First, self-esteem, achievement motivation, and desire to re-enter the workforce were measured on a 5-point Likert scale, with self-esteem having the highest mean. Second, the correlations of the three variables were significantly positive, and the subfactors were mostly similar. Third, achievement motivation was found to have a full mediating effect on the relationship between self-esteem and reemployment desire, which is the ultimate goal of this study. Conclusions Self-esteem of middle-aged reemployment seekers was found to have a significant effect on reemployment desire through achievement motivation. Therefore, it is expected that developing, supplementing, and modifying educational programs centered on self-esteem and achievement motivation in reemployment education for middle-aged reemployment seekers will have a positive impact on promoting reemployment desire.
