Abstract

|
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of ego-resiliency and self-efficacy on paramedic students in J province.
Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 465 paramedic students from the J area recruited from September 25 to October 10, 2017. The questionnaire included general characteristics, ego-resiliency, self-efficacy, and satisfaction with their choice of the major subject. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlations, and a multiple regression analysis.
Results: As ego-resiliency and self-efficacy increased, satisfaction with their majoring subject also increased. Senior students had higher satisfaction than freshmen in relation to general characteristics. Students having ‘interest in their major’ owing to personal motivation of choice of major, had higher satisfaction than those having ‘suggestion from other’. It is necessary to find a way to increase satisfaction of major and to inspire ego-resiliency and self-efficacy.
Conclusion: Future studies should investigate ways to increase major satisfaction toward paramedics and to enhance their ego-resiliency and self-efficacy.
