CONCLUSIONS The results of this study will provide the evidence data of national handwashing promotion activities for preventing and controlling communicable diseases.

OBJECTIVES 우리나라 국민들의 손씻기 실천률은 선진국에 비해서 매우 낮은 수준이다. 이 연구는 비누로 손씻기와 관련한 공중 화장실 이용시 행동 실태 및 관련요인을 분석고자 하였다. METHODS 2013년 9월 10일부터 9월 12일까지 우리나라 특 광역시 지하철역 및 기차역의 화장실 이용자를 대상으로 '2013년도 국민 손씻기 실태조사' 결과를 활용하였다.
