Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the general health behaviors of elementary school children in single- and two-parent families and to identify factors affecting health behavior. The study subjects were 1,023 students attending S elementary school in G province. Data was collected from March 5, 2018 to March 16, 2018. Collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, the chi-square test, and logistic regression analysis using SPSS/WIN Ver. 22.0. The results of children with a single-parent mother were significantly different for 'regular breakfast' (p=.015) and 'counseling with homeroom teachers' (p=.019), and the results of children with a single-parent father were significantly different for 'wash hands before going out and before meals' (p=.035), 'someone you can talk to when you are worried' (p=.005), and 'often lonely and depressed' (p=.007). Logistic regression analysis showed that children with single-parent families were 7.670 times more likely to seek 'counseling with homeroom teachers' than children with two-parent families (p=.011). The results of this study provide basic data on the health behaviors of elementary school students with single-parent families.

본 연구의 목적은 한부모가정과 양부모가정 초등학생의 식생활 습관, 신체활동, 가정 및 학교생활, TV 시청 및 인터넷, 흡연, 음주와 약물, 성의식, 사회성과 정신건강 등을 파악하고, 한부모가정 초등학생의 건강행태에 영향을 주는 요인을 확인하는 것이다. 연구대상자는 G도의 S초등학교에 재학 중인 학생 1,023명이었으며, 자료수집은 2018년 3월 5일부터 3월 16일까지 설문지를 통해 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 22.0 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계, 카이제곱검정과 로지스틱회귀분석을 이용하였다. 연구결과 모자가정 초등학생의 경우 '아침식사는 규칙적으로 먹는 편이다.'(p=.015)와 '담임 선생님과의 개별상담을 원한다.'(p=.019)에서 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 부자가정의 초등학생은 '밥을 먹기 전이나 밖에서 놀다 돌아와서 비누로 손을 씻는다.'(p=.035), '고민이 있을 때 의논할 수 있는 사람이 있다.'(p=.005)와 '외롭고 우울한 경우가 자주 있는 것 같다.'(p=.007)에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 로지스틱 회귀분석결과 모자가정에서 '담임선생님과의 개별상담을 원한다.'가 양부모가정보다 7.670배 통계적으로 유의하게 높게 나타났고(p=.011), '아침식사는 규칙적으로 먹는 편이다.'는 0.434배 낮게 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았다. 부자가정에서는 '밥을 먹기 전이나 밖에서 놀다 돌아와서 비누로 손을 씻는다.'가 0.298배로 낮게, '고민이 있을 때 의논할 수 있는 사람이 있다.'가 0.265배로 낮게, '외롭고 우울한 경우가 자주 있는 것 같다.'가 3.844배로 높게 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 본 연구결과는 한부모가정 초등학생의 건강행태 관리의 기초자료가 될 것으로 생각되며, 상담을 원하는 학생들의 비율이 양부모가정보다 높게 나타난 것을 토대로 한부모가정 학생들을 위한 상담프로그램 개발을 제언한다.
