Purpose: Nursing students are key personnel to take care of people with dementia in the nursing field in future. The purpose of this study was to identify subjective attitudes toward dementia in nursing students. Methods: Q methodology, which is a research method to study people's subjective points of views, was used. Thirty seven Q-statements (Q-sample) were derived from the Q population (Concourse) and were arranged in rank order by each of 42 participants into a normal distribution grid (from -4 to +4). A QUANL program was used to analyze the collected data. Results: Three types of attitudes toward dementia were identified: 'self-guided dementia management', 'national-guided dementia management' and 'facility-guided dementia management.' Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that nursing strategies to improve understanding of dementia and actively cope with dementia should be considered.

본 연구는 노인간호실습이 간호대학생의 노인돌봄태도와 치매의사소통행위에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위한 단일군 전후설계(one group pretest-posttest design) 연구이다. 연구는 2018년 9월부터 12월까지 진행되었으며 자료수집은 간호대학생 59명의 자가보고식 설문지를 이용하여 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0을 이용하여 분석되었고, 대상자의 일반적 특성은 기술적 통계, 노인간호실습 전후 노인돌봄태도와 치매의사소통행위의 차이는 paired t-test로 분석하였다. 통계 분석 결과, 노인간호실습 전에 비하여 노인간호실습 후에 대상자의 노인돌봄태도와 치매의사소통행위가 유의하게 상승되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 간호사로서의 역량을 향상시키기 위한 간호대학생의 실습교육과정 구성을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

2017년 우리나라는 고령사회에 진입하면서 치매환자가 증가하고 있다. 이에 추후, 간호 전문 인력으로 역할을 수행하게 될 간호대학생의 치매노인에 대한 관심이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 치매노인에 대한 사회적 거리감에 미치는 영향요인을 알아보기 위함이다. 본 연구는 서술적 조사연구 연구로, 자료 수집을 위해 D시의 일개 간호대학 158명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 통해 자료를 수집하여 분석하였다. 각 변수간의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 치매노인에 대한 사회적 거리감과 치매태도(r=.53, p<.001)는 정적인 상관관계를 보였으며, 연령주의(r=-.41, p<.001)는 부적상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 간호대학생의 치매노인의 사회적 거리감에 미치는 영향요인으로는 치매환자와의 소통경험에서 '전혀 없다' 에 비해 '가끔 있다' 와 (${\beta}=.29$ p=.012), '자주 있다' (${\beta}=.37$ p=.002)가 영향요인으로 나타났고, 치매조기예방에 대한 관심(${\beta}=.32$ p=.002), 연령주의(${\beta}=.36$ p=.002)가 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 영향요인 변수들의 치매노인에 대한 사회적 거리감에 대한 설명력은 41.0% 이었다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the perception of and attitude toward dementia and depression among residents in a community. Methods: Data were collected using the questionnaire from 226 residents in Incheon city from February to May, 2017. The data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe's test to identify differences in perception of and attitude toward dementia and depression. Pearson correlation coefficients were used to identify the correlation between the study variables, and multiple regression was used to identify factors affecting depression. Results: There were significant differences in perception of dementia according to age, education, marital status, and exercise. Also, significant differences in attitude toward dementia were found in occupation, family history of dementia and education about dementia. Depression was significantly different depending on the type of health insurance coverage and alcohol drinking. The scores of perception of dementia and depression were 11.09, 2.37, respectively on a 2-point scale and for attitude toward dementia was 85.94 on a 7-point Likert scale. The perception of dementia was positively correlated with the attitude toward dementia and there were negative correlations between perception of dementia and age and between depression and attitude toward dementia. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that we should improve perception of and attitude toward dementia and reduce depression to prevent and manage dementia effectively.

Methods: The participants in this study were 670 certified caregivers who were working in nursing homes or care hospitals throughout the whole of the country and engaged in education programs for improvement of their professional abilities. Collected data were analyzed using t-tests, ANOVA, Duncan, and Pearson's correlation coefficients with the SPSS 18.0 for Windows Program. Results: The scores for knowledge about, attitude toward, and educational needs for dementia were $14.12{\pm}2.83$ out of 20, $42.27{\pm}5.54$ out of 50 (item mean 4.22), and $121.51{\pm}22.13$ out of 160 (item mean 3.79) respectively. There were statistically significant positive correlations between knowledge and attitude (r=.238, p<.001), educational needs (r=.083, p=.032), and attitude and educational needs (r=.244, p<.001). Conclusion: Tailored and continuous educational programs for certified caregivers that can improve knowledge about the causes and symptoms of dementia should be developed. Nurses and professors who are experts in dementia should be on the front lines of education for caregivers.

Purpose: The study was conducted to investigate the effects of knowledge and attitude towards dementia on social distance from senile dementia among university students. Methods: The study was a descriptive study based on 235 university students. Data were collected from September 1 to 15, 2017 using a structured self-report questionnaire. Dementia knowledge, dementia attitude, and social distance from senile dementia were measured. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: After adjusting for the general and dementia-related characteristics of the participants, the significant predictors of social distance from senile dementia among university students were dementia attitude. Moreover, knowledge and attitude towards dementia explained 27.8% of the variance in social distance from senile dementia among university students. Conclusion: The results indicate that educators need to make efforts to improve dementia attitude and to develop plans to increase dementia knowledge in order to reduce university students' prejudice against senile dementia.
