The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of attitudes toward reasons for which abortion is permitted on needs for abortion prevention policies among 232 unmarried female students at the middle schools, high schools, and universities located in Seoul. The respondents were requested to complete the self-administered questionnaire, and the principal component analysis, t-tests, Pearson's correlations, and hierarchical multiple regression analyses were performed for analyzing data. The major findings of this study were as follows: First, the principal component analysis identified three reasons for which abortion is permitted. These are reasons under the maternal & child health law, socioeconomic reasons, and normatively unqualified reasons. Second, the female students showed permissive attitudes toward reasons for abortion under the maternal & child health law, disapproval attitudes toward socioeconomic reasons for abortion, and neutral attitudes toward abortion by normatively unqualified reasons. Students also showed high levels of needs for abortion prevention policies. Finally, hierarchical regression analyses revealed that female students' attitudes toward reasons for which abortion is permitted significantly predicted levels of needs for abortion prevention policies, after controlling their sciodemographic characteristics. The implications of the study results are discussed.

지난 몇 달간 우리 사회에 낙태가 쟁점이 되고 있다. 저출산 문제를 해결하기 위해 낙태단속을 강화해야 한다는 의견이 제기되는 한편, 외국에서는 찾아보기 힘든 산부인과 의사 간의 낙태 논쟁 및 고발이 진행 중이고 여성계와 정부도 이에 대한 대응을 내놓고 있다. 이러한 맥락에서 본 논문의 목적은 낙태의 정책방향을 여성건강의 관점에서 제시하기 위해 유럽의 사례를 고찰하는 데 있다. 낙태의 법적·사회적 수용도 및 안전한 낙태시스템 보장 수준을 기준 삼아 아일랜드, 영국, 네덜란드 세 국가를 선정하여, 개별 국가의 낙태에 관한 국가정책, 법적 기준, 의료 체계, 시민사회 등의 역학이 여성건강에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이들 국가의 경험은 여성의 요청에 의한 낙태 시행, 낙태를 위한 의사의 복잡한 입증을 전제로 하지 않는 낙태제도, 투명하고 익명성이 보장되는 정보제공 및 상담, 임신 초기단계의 빠른 낙태 결정, 의료진의 질 높은 낙태를 위한 교육 및 훈련, 낙태 서비스의 공공지원을 통한 모든 여성의 낙태 접근도 향상, 안전한 낙태를 위한 지속적인 모니터링 및 체계 구축 등과 같은 장치가 안전한 낙태를 위해 한국 사회에서도 시급하다는 함의를 얻을 수 있었다. 여성의 요청에 의한 '안전한 낙태'와 원치 않는 임신의 예방정책이라는 두 가지 전략을 통해 건강한 여성과 사회가 재생산될 수 있다.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the trends on the induced abortion in Korea using social big-data and confirm whether there was time series trends and seasonal characteristics in induced abortion. Methods: From October 1, 2007 to October 24, 2016, we used Naver's data lab query, and the search word was 'induced abortion' in Korean. The average trend of each year was analyzed and the seasonality was analyzed using the cosinor model. Results: There was no significant changes in search volume of abortion during that period. Monthly search volume was the highest in May followed by the order of June and April. On the other hand, the lowest month was December followed by the order of January, and September. The cosinor analysis showed statistically significant seasonal variations (amplitude, 4.46; confidence interval, 1.46-7.47; p< 0.0036). The search volume for induced abortion gradually increased to the lowest point at the end of November and was the highest at the end of May and declined again from June. Conclusion: There has been no significant changes in induced abortion for the past nine years, and seasonal changes in induced abortion have been identified. Therefore, considering the seasonality of the intervention program for the prevention of induced abortion, it will be effective to concentrate on the induced abortion from March to May.
