여대생의 교양무용수업 참여에 따른 신체적 자기효능감이 수업만족에 미치는 영향

Abstract

This study was carried out through a survey of 242 female university students who take elective dance classes at S University (Seoul), K University and Y University (Gyeonggi-do). For 15 weeks, the students took elective dance classes. The researchers of this study analyzed the influence of physical self-efficacy which was acquired through taking elective dance classes on class satisfaction. The objective of this study is to find out the function and effect of elective dance classes at universities and to provide related basic materials. To this end, the researchers used a survey questionnaire on physical self-efficacy which was made by Ryckman et al(1982) and remade by Hong Seon-ok(1996). The researchers also used a survey questionnaire on class satisfaction which was originally made by Beard & Regheb(1980) as ‘Leisure Satisfaction Scale’ and later remade by Jeong Woo-young(2007) and Kim Hye-jeong(2003). The result is as follows. First, it turned out that female university students’ general characteristics had a significant influence on physical self-efficacy. It was statistically the same regardless of grade, major and the number of taking classes. Second, the result shows that female university students’ general characteristics had a significant influence on class satisfaction. It was statistically the same regardless of grade, major and the number of taking classes. Third, the physical self-efficacy which was acquired through female university students’ participation in elective dance classes had a significant influence on social satisfaction, physical satisfaction and education satisfaction all of which are sub-factors of class satisfaction. Furthermore, it did not have a significant influence on psychological satisfaction and environmental satisfaction statistically. Based on the conclusion as above, elective dance classes make female university students to do physical activities, helping them to keep and improve health and physical power. It also helps them to build good living habits and thus increase physical self-efficacy. If female students keep participating in physical activities and try to prevent environmental factors that deter physical activities, those efforts will have a positive effect on them who will take the first step into the society in forming proper attitudes, life values and living habits.
