대학생의 일과 삶의 블렌딩(work-life blending) 측정도구 개발 및 타당화

초록

The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a scale to measure college students' perceived work-life blending. This study followed the instrument development procedure proposed by DeVellis (2003) to develop a measure of university students' work-life blending. Work-life blending, as defined in this study, means that individuals do not separate their work and life, but align them in accordance with their career goals and life values, and integrate them complementarily. This study collected data from 1,331 university students in Seoul, Korea by conducting an online survey. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, internal consistency between items, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. The results showed that the ‘Work-Life Blending of College Students’ instrument was validated as a single-dimensional scale consisting of eight items. This study is significant in that it goes beyond the dichotomous thinking that the existing concept of work-life balance presupposes and presents an integrated view of work and life.
