The purpose of this study was to examine the self-efficacy of dental hygiene students in a college located on Jeju Island, their satisfaction with major and the impact of the regional characteristics of the island on their self-efficacy and satisfaction with major. A survey was conducted from November 28 to December 5, 2015. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. As for the self-efficacy of the dental hygiene students on Jeju Island according to their own demographic characteristics, there were statistically significant differences according to gender (t=2.672, p=.008), academic standing in high school(F=6.865, p=.000), monthly family income(F=3.098, p=.017) and part-time job experiences related to major (t=2.779, p-.006). 2. Regarding their self-efficacy according to the regional factors of the island, they mostly gave positive answers about regional economy (t=1.955, p=.052), local relative culture(t=-.574, p=.567), the bond of relatives(t=.527, p=.599), local educational conditions(t=.027, p=.979), hope for living on land(t=-.701, p=.484) and local culture(t=.364, p=.716). 3. Concerning satisfaction with major according to demographic characteristics, there were significant differences according to age (t=-4.395, p=.000), academic year(F=14.742, p=.000), academic standing in high school(F=3.129, p=.027), part-time job experiences related to major (t=2.503, p=.013) and motivation for choosing dental hygiene(F=4.144, p=.007). 4. As to satisfaction with major according to the regional characteristics of Jeju Island, there were statistically significant differences according to educational conditions when their answers about local economy(t=-.284, p=.777), local relative culture(t=-.234, p=.816), the bond of relatives(t=.265, p=.791), local educational conditions(t=3.616, p=.000), hope for living on land(t=-.561, p=.576) and local culture(t=.976, p=.331) were analyzed. In regard to the subfactors of major satisfaction according to educational conditions, statistically significant differences were found in satisfaction with subject-matter content(t=3.355, p=.001), general satisfaction(t=2.819, p=.005), satisfaction with classes(t=2.426, p=.016), relational satisfaction(t=2.518, p=.013) and satisfaction with awareness (t=4.00, p=.000).
