The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of participation
motivation in coffee education on career decision of students. The
subjects of the survey were students who have completed the coffee
barista education course or are currently taking the curriculum. The
questionnaires were used to collect 200 questionnaires from
educational institutions which has a coffee barista training course and
except for the unusable questionnaire, 164 questionnaires were finally
used. The analytical method was verified by path analysis using
correlation analysis and structural equation modeling. As a result of the
analysis, the correlation between variables was significant. In the path
analysis results, participation motivation in coffee education had a
positive effect on entrepreneurship, learning outcome, and educational
satisfaction. Learning outcome also had a positive effect on
entrepreneurship, career decision, and educational satisfaction.
This result showed that participation motivation in coffee education
mediated learning outcome. The full mediation effect of a positive
effect on entrepreneurship and the full mediation effect of a positive
effect on educational satisfaction were confirmed.
In addition, entrepreneurship on career decision had a positive effect
and educational satisfaction had a positive effect on career decision.
This result showed that learning outcome had the full mediation effect
of a positive effect on career decision, which is a dependent variable,
through entrepreneurship and educational satisfaction.
Therefore, this study adopted all hypotheses by using path analysis
and both direct and indirect effects and total effect according to
research model are significant. In conclusion, we confirmed that
participation motivation in coffee education indirectly effected career
decision through various variables.
