Abstract

The object of this study was to analyze factors influencing adult dementia knowledge, fear of dementia, and intention of dementia prevention behavior on the demand for dementia prevention education. The subjects of the study were 265 adults aged 19 to 64 living in Chungnam and Chungbuk, who understood the purpose of the study and agreed to participate in the study. The collected research data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. As a result of the study, adult dementia knowledge (p=.055) and dementia fear (p=.302) were found that they did not significantly affect the demand for dementia prevention education, and the intention of dementia prevention behavior (β=.329, p<.001) was found to have a significant effect on the demand for dementia prevention education. Based on these research results, understanding of dementia and dementia management projects, early screening for dementia and health guidelines for dementia prevention, chronic disease management for dementia prevention, exercise for dementia prevention, healthy eating for dementia prevention, and cognitive enhancement for dementia prevention In addition to the national dementia prevention publicity and national response efforts such as programs, it is necessary to actively participate in the dementia prevention program centered on the community to practice the correct dementia prevention behavior and provide sufficient opportunities to prevent it.

본 연구는 성인의 치매 지식, 치매 두려움 및 치매 예방행위 의도가 치매 예방교육 요구에 미치는 영향요인을 분석하고자 수행되었다. 연구대상자는 충남, 충북에 거주하고 있는 19~64세 성인으로 연구의 목적을 이해하고 연구에 참여할 것을 동의한 265명을 대상으로 설문조사하였다. 수집된 연구 자료는 빈도, 백분율, 평균, 표준편차, t-test, ANOVA, 다중 회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과 성인의 치매 지식과(p=.055) 치매 두려움은(p=.302) 치매예방교육 요구에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났고, 치매 예방행위 의도가(β=.329, p<.001) 치매 예방교육요구에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이 같은 연구결과를 토대로 치매의 이해와 치매관리사업, 치매조기검진과 치매예방 건강수칙, 치매예방을 위한 만성질환 관리, 치매예방을 위한 운동, 치매예방을 위한 건강한 식생활, 치매예방을 위한 인지증진프로그램 등 국가의 치매 예방 홍보 및 국가 차원의 대응 노력과 더불어 지역사회를 중심으로 치매예방 프로그램에 적극 참여하여 올바른 치매 예방행동을 실천하고 예방할 수 있는 기회를 충분히 제공해야 한다고 사료된다.
