Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among the stress on clinical practice, stress coping method and the somatization symptom of dental hygiene students and propose strategies for effective instruction of clinical practice. The survey was performed by self-reported questionnaires for 268 dental hygiene students who have recently experienced clinical practice. Collected data were analyzed using by t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient with the SPSS Win 12.0 program. Its results are as follows. 1. In the satisfaction of clinical practice, 'Satisfaction', 'Average' and 'Unsatisfactory' were 32.5%, 42.2% and 25.4%, respectively. The reason for dissatisfaction of clinical practice were 'insufficient education of college'(29.8%), 'environment of clinical practice institute'(23,4%), 'interpersonal relationship'(21.3%) in order. 2. Somatization symptoms was positive correlation(0.307, p < 0.01) associated with stress of clinical practice. Also it was negative correlation associated with satisfaction level of the subjects and stress of clinical practice. Correlation coefficient of the interpersonal relation factor was found the most significantly high as much as 0.331, according to the analysis carried out between subordinate factors of clinical practice stress and somatization. 3. According to stress coping method. Subjects were distributed into two group of active method and passive method. Thereafter as a result of verifying the difference of somatization symptoms, there was statistically significant difference between active method group and passive method group. Based on the study results, we suggests that effective management program of clinical practice should be developed and applied to the dental hygiene students to make them cope with stress and somatic symptom during their clinical practice.
본 연구는 치위생과 학생들의 임상실습스트레스와 스트레스 대처방식, 신체화 경향간의 관계를 조사 연구하여 보다 효율적인 임상실습 지도를 위한 자료를 제공하기 위해 임상실습을 경험한 치위생과 재학생 268명을 대상으로 설문조사하여 SPSS WIN 12.0을 이용하여 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 임상실습 만족도를 조사한 결과 '만족 한다'는 32.5%, '보통이다'는 42.2%, '불만족이다'는 25.4%로 나타났으며 임상실습 불만족 원인은 각각 '대인관계의 어려움'이 21.3%, 임상실습에 대비한 '학과교육의 불충분'이 29.8%, 실습병원에서의 '부적절한 업무수행'에 대한 불만이 23.4%로 학과 교육과정에 대한 불만이 가장 높았다. 2. 신체화 경향은 임상실습 스트레스와 양의 상관관계(.307, p < 0.01)를 전공만족도 및 임상실습 만족도와는 약한 음의 상관관계를 보였으며, 임상실습 스트레스 하위요인들과 신체화 경향간의 상관관계 분석에서는 대인관계 요인의 상관계수가 .331로 다른 하위 요인들에 비해 높게 나타났다(p < 0.01). 3. 스트레스 대처 방식에 따라 적극적 대처 그룹과 소극적 대처 그룹으로 나눈 후 신체화 경향에 대한 두 군간의 차이를 검증한 결과 적극적 대처 그룹에서 보다 낮은 신체화 점수 평균을 보여 소극적 대처 그룹과 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 나타났다.
