The verification of the moderating effect of career preparation behavior in the relationship between career stress response and career decision-making self-efficacy of nursing students

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for career counseling by verifying the moderating effect of career preparation behavior in the relationship between career stress response and career decision-making self-efficacy of nursing students. To this end, each variable was measured and the moderating effect was analyzed for 202 nursing students in the 3rd and 4th grades. The analysis results are as follows. First, the career stress response showed a relatively low negative correlation with career decision-making self-efficacy (r=-.241, p<.01) and career preparation behavior (r=-.270, p<.001). On the other hand, career preparation behavior showed a positive correlation with career decision-making self-efficacy (r=.448, p<.001). Second, the career stress response had a negative effect on career decision-making self-efficacy (B=-.364, p<.001), and the effect of career preparation behavior was not significant, but the interaction between career stress response and career preparation behavior was found to have a significant positive effect (B=.369, p<.001). Third, it was found that there was a significant difference in the effect of career stress response on career decision-making self-efficacy according to the level of career preparation behavior, and the moderating effect was finally verified. In order to increase the validity and reliability of the results of this study, it seems necessary to understand the relationship between variables by developing a scale of career preparation behavior reflecting the characteristics of nursing students.
