영유아의 중요한 양육 항목의 올바른 실천율이 전체 항목의 약 60-70%에 불과하였고, 예방접종 프로그램에 겸하여 실시한 양육교육으로는 적극적인 교육이 이루어질 수 없어 교육 효과가 충분하지 않은 것으로 나타났으며, 영유아의 월령이 증가할수록 교육효과가 낮아 졌다. 전반적인 올바른 양육실천 정도를 높이고, 영유아의 월령 증가하더라도 어머니의 양육에 대한 관심을 지속 유지시킬 수 있으며, 교육 효과를 높일 수 있는 접근법을 모색하여 수행할 것을 제안하며, 수행되는 교육의 효과를 지속적으로 평가하는 과정을 통해 본 프로그램을 개선 발전시킨다면 부산지역 영유아의 올바른 양육 실천율이 높아질 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
Objectives: To evaluate the effect on education for child rearing using child-growth developmental screening program that hat had been developed by the maternal-child health services team in a public health center, Busan area, the rates of practicing proper child rearing between educated group and non-educated group were compared. Methods: Subjects were 596 mothers whose children were between 2 and 15 months old and who had visited two public health centers in Busan area for vaccination. Subjects checked the items that they are practicing for child rearing, the rates of items properly be practiced were compared between educated group and non-educated group by chi-square test. The effect of education in 2, 4, 6, 12 months old were observed in 4, 6, 12, 15 months old, respectively. Results: The percentages of the items that practice rate of proper child rearing was over 50% were not different by monthly age. In 4 months age, the proper practice rates of three items among eleven items were significantly higher in the educated group than in non-educated group. In 6 and 12 months age, those of two items and one item among fourteen items were higher respectively in the educated group than in non-educated group. In 15 months age, there was no item among thirteen that is different between two groups. Conclusions: As monthly ages are increasing, the practice rates of proper child rearing were decreased. In a few items, the practice rates of proper child rearing were higher in the educated group than in non-educated group. It suggests that the program that increase the effect on education of child rearing was developed and performed in public health centers.
