Background: The class form of beauty specialized high schools is mainly practical education rather than theoretical education, and the acquisition of national technical qualifications and employment skills are given priority. In the beauty industry, both theoretical basic knowledge and technical practical competence must be equipped. Learning in beauty education requires, above all, the attitude of the learner to constantly study the knowledge and skills delivered by the instructor. This can lead to lasting classroom effects.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the effect of learning attitude on learning flow among students at beauty specialized schools to provide a foundation for improving the quality of beauty education and preparing a plan to increase the learning satisfaction of students.
Methods: A total of 370 questionnaires were distributed to students at beauty specialized high schools in South Jeolla Province, of which 335 were analyzed after excluding 35 that lacked sincerity.
Results: The results of this study showed statistically significant positive correlations between the sub-factors of learning attitude, namely attention factor, learning skill factor, and self-learning factor, and, the sub-factors of learning flow, namely the cognitive and affective domains.
Conclusion: These findings can be used as a foundation for designing educational plans to improve the academic achievement and learning satisfaction of students at beauty specialized high schools.
