본 연구는 치위생과 재학생들의 건강증진행위를 조사하여 대학생의 건강증진을 도모하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 경기도에 소재한 4개 대학의 치위생과 재학생 687명을 대상으로 2007년 9월부터 10월까지 설문조사를 실시하였다. SPSS 12.0 program을 이용한 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 구강관리행위는 1학년 학생($3.11{\pm}.57$)이 가장 낮은것으로 조사되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p < .001). 2. 건강증진행위는 건강상태가 나쁘다고 인식하는 경우 영양관리($3.63{\pm}.63$), 사회적지지($2.43{\pm}.60$), 건강에 대한 책임($2.40{\pm}.68$), 자신의 삶에 대한 존중($2.33{\pm}.51$)에서 관리행위정도가 낮은 것으로 조사되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p < .001, p < 0.01). 3. 부모님의 교육정도에 따른 건강증진행위는 아버지가 중졸이하인 경우($3.62{\pm}.52$) 영양관리가 가장 낮았으며(p < .001), 어머니가 중졸인 경우($2.52{\pm}.52$) 사회적 지지가 낮은 것으로 조사되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p < .05). 4. 자취를 하는 경우 영양관리($3.66{\pm}.57$)가 가장 낮았으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p < .001). 5. 월평균 가계 수입이 100만원 이하에서($2.42{\pm}.62$) 삶의 존중행위가 가장 낮게 조사되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p < .05). 6. 건강증진행위와 관련 변인간의 상관관계는 건강증진행위가 사회적 지지가 높을수록 삶의 존중이 높았으며, 삶의 존중이 높을수록 스트레스 관리가 잘되고 있는 것으로 조사되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 보였다(p < .01).
The purpose of this study was to examine the health promotion behavior of dental hygiene students in boosting a university student health. The subjects in this study were 687 dental hygiene students in four different colleges in Gyeonggi province. A survey was conducted in September and October 2007, and the collected data were analyzed with SPSS 12.0 program. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. The he freshmen scored lowest in oral health care behavior($3.11{\pm}.57$), and the gap between them and the others was statistically significant (p < .001). 2. In regard to health promotion behavior, the students who found themselves not to be in good shape scored lower in terms of nutritional care($3.63{\pm}.63$), social support($2.43{\pm}.60$), responsibility for their own health($2.40{\pm}.68$) and esteem for their own lives($2.33{\pm}.51$). There were statistically significant differences between them and the others(p < .001, p < 0.01). 3. As to the relationship of the academic background of parents to health promotion behavior, the students whose fathers stopped at middle school($3.62{\pm}.52$) lagged behind most in terms of nutritional (p < .001), and those whose mothers stopped at middle school($2.52{\pm}.52$) were given the smallest social support. The gap between these groups and the others were statistically significant(p < .05). 4. The self-boarding students($3.66{\pm}.57$) fall behind most in the aspect of nutritional care, and there was a statistically significant gap between them and the others(p < .001). 5. The students whose monthly mean household income was one million won or less($2.42{\pm}.62$) valued their own lives least, and the gap between them and the others was statistically significant(p < .05). 6. As for correlation among the variables, stronger social support led to better reverence for life, and better esteem for life was concurrent with better stress management. There was a statistically significant relationship between those variables(p < .01).
