Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception of elder abuse, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control and to examine what factors influence attitudes toward elder abuse. The subjects were 404 nursing students at D and S universities in G province. The data were collected from November 20th, 2017 to January 26th, 2017. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and stepwise regression using the SPSS / WIN 22.0. The results show that perception of elder abuse had a score of 3.60, subjective norms had a score of 2.69, and perceived behavior control and attitude had scores of 2.62 and 2.97. Perception of elder abuse, subjective norms, and behavioral control and attitudes showed significant positive correlations and showed significant differences according to elderly nursing education. Factors influencing attitudes toward elder abuse were perception of elder abuse, subjective norms, and perceptions of behavioral control and grade. The results of this study indicate that it is important to increase awareness, subjective norms, and behavioral control for the intervention of elder abuse. We suggest that nursing education of the elderly is important for the intervention of elder abuse.

본 연구의 목적은 간호학생을 대상으로 노인 학대에 대한 인식, 주관적 규범과 지각된 행위통제를 조사하고 노인 학대에 대한 태도에 어떠한 요인이 영향을 미치는지 확인하는 것이다. 연구대상자는 G도에 소재하는 D대학과 S대학 간호학과에 재학 중인 학생 404명이었으며, 자료수집은 2017년 11월 20일부터 1월 26일까지 설문지를 통해 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 22.0 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계, 독립표본 T검증(Independent t-test), 분산분석(ANOVA), 피어슨 상관계수(Pearson's correlation coefficient)와 단계적 회귀분석(stepwise regression)을 이용하였다. 연구결과 4점 척도를 이용하여 노인 학대에 대한 인식은 3.60점, 주관적 규범은 2.69점, 지각된 행위통제와 태도는 각각 2.62점, 2.97점이었으며, 노인 학대에 대한 인식, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행위통제와 태도 모두 노인 간호와 관련된 과목의 교육여부에 의해 유의한 차이를 보였다. 노인 학대에 대한 인식, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행위통제와 태도는 유의한 정적 상관관계를 보였으며, 노인 학대에 대한 태도에 영향을 주는 요인은 노인 학대에 대한 인식(${\beta}=.185$, p<.001), 주관적 규범(${\beta}=.167$, p=.005), 지각된 행위통제(${\beta}=.161$, p=.007)와 학년(${\beta}=-.103$, p=.038)이었다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 노인 학대를 접했을 때 적극적 개입을 위한 인식, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행위통제를 높이는 것이 필요하고, 이를 위해 노인 간호와 관련된 과목을 교육하는 것이 중요하며, 나아가 노인 학대와 관련된 교육프로그램 개발을 제안하는 바이다.
