Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify nursing students' knowledge, attitudes, and optimism bias about cancer, and the degree of national cancer prevention health behavior and to identify factors affecting cancer prevention behaviors. The data were collected from June 3 to June 28, 2020 for 241 nursing college students at J-C University. As a result of the study, nursing students' knowledge of cancer was 23.28±5.62 points, attitude was 40.33±8.15 points, optimistic bias was -.13±1.48 points, and national cancer prevention health behavior was 3.47±.59 points. National cancer prevention health behaviors of nursing students correlated with knowledge, attitudes, and optimistic biases on cancer. Among them, variables affecting cancer prevention health behaviors are attitudes toward cancer and optimism bias, which is 37.0 %. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a program to increase attitudes toward cancer and reduce optimism, and to practice cancer prevention health behaviors by reducing biases through positive attitudes and awareness of the importance of health behaviors through systematic and continuous education.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 암에 대한 지식, 태도, 낙관적 편견과 국민 암 예방수칙 건강행위 정도를 확인하고 암 예방 행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고자 실시되었다. 자료 수집은 2020년 6월 3일부터 6월 28일까지 J도 C대학의 간호대학생 241명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구 결과 간호대학생들의 암에 대한 지식은 23.28±5.62점, 태도는 40.33±8.15점, 낙관적 편견은 -.13±1.48점, 국민 암 예방수칙 건강행위는 3.47±.59점으로 나타났다. 간호대학생들의 국민 암 예방수칙 건강행위는 암에 대한 지식, 태도와 낙관적 편견이 상관관계가 있었고, 이중 암 예방 건강행위에 영향을 미치는 변수로는 암에 대한 태도와 낙관적 편견이며, 이 변수는 37.0%의 설명력을 나타냈다. 따라서, 암에 대한 태도를 높이고, 낙관적 편견을 줄일 수 있는 프로그램 개발과 체계적이고 지속적인 교육을 통한 긍정적인 태도와 건강행위 의 중요성 인식을 통한 편향된 편견을 줄여 암 예방 건강행위를 실천하도록 하는 것이 필요하다.
