Abstract

This study was conducted to compare of the health behaviors of single households by status of workers and age groups. The subjects were collected by purposive quota sampling(n=566). There was a significant difference by age in drinking frequency(p<0.001), smoking status(p<0.001) and smoking amount(p<0.001). In the smoking cessation plan, the permanent workers were significantly higher than other groups(p<0.05). In the reason for smoking cessation, the proportion of respondents who cited the cigarette cost was significantly higher in 20s(p<0.001). Overall, it can be said that personal characteristics such as age have more significant influences on drinking and smoking behaviors than socioeconomic characteristics such as status of workers.

1인가구주의 종사상지위와 연령에 따라 음주, 흡연 등의 건강행태에 차이가 있는지를 비교하고자 종사상지위 및 연령별로 층화추출하여 조사를 실시하였다(총 566명). 분석결과에 따르면, 음주빈도에서는 연령별 유의적 차이가 발견되었으며(p<0.001), 흡연여부(p<0.001) 및 흡연량(p<0.001)에서도 연령별 유의적 차이가 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 금연 계획에서는 정규직이 다른 집단에 비하여 유의적으로 높게 나타났고(p<0.05), 금연이유에 대해서는 담뱃값 부담 때문이라는 응답이 20대에서 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.001). 전체적으로 볼 때, 음주 및 흡연 등의 건강행태에서는 종사상지위와 같은 사회경제적 특성보다는 연령 등과 같은 개인적 특성이 더 유의적인 영향을 준다고 할 수 있다.
