본 연구에서는 어린이집 교사의 의사결정 과정 참여정도와 교사효능감을 교사의 경력과 학 력, 교육연수, 그리고 교육연수에 따라 차이가 있는지 살펴보고, 의사결정 과정 참여정도와 교사효능감과의 관계를 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 의사결정 참여정도는 교사의 경력과 학력, 교육연수 참여여부, 그리고 연령에 따라 차이가 있 었다. 즉 경력이 3년 미만인 교사보다 3년 이상인 교사가, 양성과정수료 및 2년제 대졸인 교 사보다 4년제 대졸 이상인 교사가, 교육연수에 참여한 교사가 참여하지 않은 교사보다, 그리 고 30세 이상인 교사가 30세 미만인 교사보다 의사결정 참여정도가 높았다. 둘째, 교사효능 감은 교사의 경력과 학력, 교육연수 참여여부, 그리고 연령에 따라 차이가 있었다. 즉 경력이 많은 교사일수록, 양성과정수료 및 2년제 대졸인 교사보다 4년제 대졸 이상인 교사, 교육연수 에 참여한 적이 있는 교사가 그렇지 않은 교사보다, 그리고 30세 이상인 교사가 30세 미만 인 교사보다 교사효능감이 높았다. 셋째, 교사의 의사결정 참여정도는 교사효능감과 통계적 으로 유의미한 정적 상관관계를 보였다. 이러한 연구결과를 볼 때, 보육교사들은 의사결정 참 여정도가 높을수록 교사효능감이 높음을 알 수 있다.
The purpose of this study was to examine any possible differences among daycare center teachers in the level of involvement in decision-making process and teacher efficacy according to their career, academic credential, age and training experience and the relationship between their level of involvement in decision-making process and teacher efficacy. The major findings of the study were as follows: First, there were differences among the teachers in the level of involvement in decision making according to their career, academic credential and training experience. The teachers who had three years or more of work experience, who were four-year university graduates and who took training courses were more involved in decision making than their counterparts who had less than three years of work experience, who were junior college graduates or completed every required course offered by a government agency, and who took training courses. Second, their teacher efficacy varied according to their career, academic credential and training experience. The teachers who had more work experience, who received four-year college or higher education and who took training courses had a better teacher efficacy than their counterparts who had less work experience, who were junior college graduates or completed every required course offered by a government agency and who didn't take any training course. Third, the level of involvement in decision making had a statistically significant positive correlation to teacher efficacy. The findings of the study illustrated that the childcare teachers had a better teacher efficacy when they were more involved in decision making.
