초록

이 연구의 목적은 우리나라의 치과의사 및 소아치과 의사들의 아동학대에 대한 인식과 신고 의무 태도를 조사하는 것이다. 치과병원 수련기관의 인턴 및 전공의를 포함하여 개인의원 또는 대학병원에서 근무 중인 치과의사를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 총 문항 수는 32문항과 세부 문항으로 구성되어 있으며, '설문 응답자의 일반적인 특성', '아동학대', '아동학대 신고', '아동학대 관련법', '아동학대 대처방안'에 대한 인식의 내용을 포함한다. 설문은 메신저를 이용하여 전송하였고 이에 응답한 176명의 답변 기록을 분석 대상으로 하였다. 아동학대의 인식은 신체적 학대, 방임, 정서적 학대 순으로 높은 응답을 나타냈다. 전체 응답자 중 19명이 아동학대를 의심하여 신고했던 경험이 있다고 응답했고, 18명은 아동학대 의심 정황이 있었으나 신고를 망설였다고 하였다. 아동학대 관련법 중에서 아동학대 신고자 보호조치와 아동학대 신고 프로토콜에 대해 낮은 인식도를 보였다. 이후 아동학대 관련 교육에서 학대 아동의 발견 방법과 이에 대한 대처방안을 가장 알고 싶어 했다. 이 연구는 향후, 아동학대에 대한 치과의사의 인식 및 의식향상을 위한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 사료된다.

In this study, the recognition of child abuse and neglect (CAN) and reporting attitudes of general dentists and pediatric dentists in Korea were estimated. A survey was conducted among dentists working at clinics or university hospitals, including interns and residents at dental hospital training institutions. The questionnaire, consisting of 32 questions and detailed questions, subdivided into 'general characteristics of respondents', 'CAN', 'CAN report', 'laws to CAN', 'countermeasures against CAN'. The survey was conducted using a messenger, and 176 respondents' answers were analyzed. The recognition of CAN showed high scores in the order of physical abuse, neglect, and emotional abuse. The positive attitude toward reporting CAN had a higher score than the negative attitude. Of the total respondents, 19 said they reported child abuse, and 18 said they were suspected of child abuse but hesitated to report it. Among the laws related to CAN, the protection measures for CAN reporters and the protocol for CAN showed low awareness. Since then, they have wanted to know how to find abused children and how to deal with them in education. This study is expected to be used as data to improve dentists' awareness and consciousness of CAN in the future.
