초록

This study examined the effects of performance participation motivation on dance self-confidence and major satisfaction among Chinese international students majoring in dance studying at Korean universities and tested the mediating effect of dance self-confidence. A survey was conducted with 303 respondents, and the collected data were analyzed using measurement and structural equation models. The results showed that performance participation motivation had significant positive effects on both dance self-confidence and major satisfaction. Dance self-confidence also had a significant positive effect on major satisfaction and demonstrated a mediating effect in the relationship between performance participation motivation and major satisfaction. These findings suggest that systematic support for performance experiences and educational support measures to enhance dance self-confidence are necessary to improve major satisfaction and academic adjustment among international dance major students in Korea.
