Abstract

The purpose of this study aims to be used as base data of a policy which forms university students' appropriate behavior for the prevention of infection by analyzing some university students' prevention awareness of new type of infection. A self-administered questionnaire survey about students' seriousness, sensitivity, self-efficacy, and prevention behavior intent of new infection, was conducted in an university located in Gyeonbuk from April. 30th to May. 11th, 2018. Analyzing factors which affect the prevention behavior intent of infection with controlled general factor and health behavior, the prevention behavior intent was increased by ${\beta}=.125$ as seriousness increases and ${\beta}=.709$ as self-efficacy increases in Model 2, final model. However, sensitivity has no significant effect on the prevention behavior intent. Originally sensitivity has to be a significant factor regarding to the prevention behavior intent of new infection. But the result that sensitivity has no influence at all, shows that the students are insensitive to new diseases as they don't fear or sense danger of new infection. Therefore, a disease control policy which helps to increase sensitivity has to be established.

이 연구의 목적은 일부 대학생들의 신종 감염병에 대한 예방인식을 조사 분석하여 향후 대학생들이 감염병 예방을 위한 올바른 실천행동을 형성하는데 정책의 기초자료로 사용되고자 한다. 경북 소재 일개 대학에서 2018년 4월 30일부터 5월 11일까지 자기기입식 설문지를 활용해 신종감염병에 대한 심각성, 민감성, 자기효능감, 예방행동의도를 조사 분석하였다. 일반적 특성 및 건강행태를 통제한 후 신종감염병의 예방행동의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사 분석하여 살펴보니 최종 모형인 Model 2에서 첫째, 심각성이 높을수록 ${\beta}=.125$, 둘째, 자기효능감이 높을수록 ${\beta}=.709$만큼 예방행동의도가 점차 증가하였다. 하지만 셋째, 민감성은 유의한 영향을 전혀 미치지 않았다. 마지막으로 신종감염병 예방행동의도에 있어 이론 및 실제적으로 민감성도 중요하게 적용되어야 하는 요소인데 민감성이 영향을 미치는 요인이 아니었다는 것은 신종감염병의 이환에 대해 위험성이나 두려움이 낮아 질병안전에 대한 불감증이 존재하는 것으로 생각되어 보다 민감성을 높여줄 수 있는 질병예방 정책을 앞으로 마련해야 할 것으로 보인다.
