청소년기 진로 성숙도의 종단적 변화 연구: 고등학교 유형별 다집단 잠재 성장 모형 분석 적용

초록

The purpose of this study is to analyze the trajectory in career maturity of middle and high school students, their causes and results, and to compare the group differences between conventional and vocational high schools. We utilized data consisting of 3,000 respondents in the first year of middle school from the 1st year (2016) to the 5th year (2020) of the Busan Educational Longitudinal Study (BELS) collected by the Education Policy Research Institute of the Busan Metropolitan Office of Education. The results indicated that career maturity showed a non-linear growth that decreased during middle school and increased after entering high school. In detail, the initial value of career maturity was similar, but the decrease and increase of career maturity were greater for those who entered conventional high schools than those who entered vocational high schools. We also analyzed the effect of free learning semester program-related variables on this non-linear growth and the effect of such growth on self-esteem. Implications and policy recommendations were discussed based on the findings.
