외모관리인식이 직업의식에 미치는 영향과 효과적인 교육방법에 관한 연구 : 미용전공대학생을 중심으로 = A Study on Effects of Awareness of Appearance Management on Professional Consciousness and Effective Education Methods : Focusing on Beauty Design Major College Students

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Despite the fact that a large number of professionals have been trained and are already engaged in actual services, the academic significance of beauty-related fields of studies is undervalued by the society at large because of the stereotyped idea that such fields are mere channels of producing skilled workers rather than a field of academic importance. Furthermore, educat ion methods still lack consolidation, causing educational confusion among the beauty students and thus adversely affecting their identity and their sense of professionalism. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the beauty design major students for their professional consciousness for beauty design and to suggest practical and educational methods for improving the college education for training of high-quality beauty design professionals. The results could be summarized as below.
First, while it was viewed that the beauty design career is quite rewarding and has good potentials as a life-long job, it was found that the awareness of the society on the beauty design career is relatively poor.
Second, it was found that those with lower awareness of heredity of appearance tended to rate the occupational consciousness of the beauty design career as professional. And, those with high professional consciousness were more willing to pursue their career in that field.
Third, it was found that the view of the beauty design career was high among the respondents with high satisfaction in beauty design education, high appearance management level, high interest in appearance management, and low recognition of appearance as a hereditary factor.
