Objectives: Dental hygienists are professionals who are responsible for the oral health of the people and should have the right job and social
responsibility. Therefore, this study aims to confirm the relationship between meta-cognition, problem solving ability, and social responsibility, and to use it as basic data to increase social responsibility.
Methods: From October 01, 2019 to October 30, 2019, students of 154 in the Department of Dental Hygiene were reviewed and conducted by the Institutional Review Board (1041449-201908-HR-002) Statistical analysis utilised the IBM SPSS ver. 25.0 (IBM Co., Armonk, NY, USA), ANOVA analysis was performed for the average comparison of metacognition, problem solving ability, and social responsibility by grade. Pearson correlation analysis was used to correlate the three concepts. Hierarchical regression analysis was conducted to examine the mediating effect of problem solving ability on the influence of metacognition on social responsibility.
Results: As a result of comparing metacognition by grade, it improved as grade increased (p <0.001). Metacognition was significantly correlated with problem solving ability (r = 0.684, p <0.001) and social responsibility (r = 0.572, p <0.001). Problem solving ability and social responsibility (r = 0.654, p <0.001) were also significantly correlated. As a result of regression analysis using metacognition and problem solving ability as a predictor variable and social responsibility as a dependent variable, metacognition and social responsibility (β = 0.235, p <0.05), problem solving ability and social responsibility (β = 0.493, p <0.001) were all significant.
Conclusions: It is expected that the student will be able to enhance his social responsibility as a dental hygienist by strengthening the education on metacognition and problem solving ability when students are at the point of vocational identity and work ethic.
