Objectives : 노인 환자들이 제공받고 있는 치과 의료서비스 만족도를 평가하여 노인 환자에게 양질의 구강보건진료 서비스를 제공하고 노인의 구강보건향상에 기여하기 위하여 실시하였다. 이와 같은 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 노인관련 일반적 특성을 알아보고, 치과 병 의원을 이용하는 노인 환자의 만족도에 미치는 요인 및 병 의원 선택이유를 조사하였다. Methods : 서울특별시와 경기도, 경상도, 전라도 일부지역의 치과병원 및 치과의원을 이용하는 노인 환자 300명을 편의추출 하였으며, 2009년 4월 1일부터 5월 8일까지 면접 및 자기기입법으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문지는 4개영역으로 구분하여 치과 의료서비스 만족도 22문항, 치과위생사의 의료서비스 만족도 14문항, 재이용 권유의사 4문항 및 일반적 특성과 치과이용에 관한 8문항으로 구성하였다. 노인환자의 일반적인 특성에 따른 치과 의료서비스 만족도, 연구대상자의 병원인지경로, 치과선택이유에 따른 치과의료서비스 만족도는 일원배치분산분석(One-way ANOVA)을 실시하였다. 치과의료서비스 만족도 영향인자, 만족도에 미치는 치과위생사 요인 등은 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구대상자의 성별과 병원내원기간에 따른 치과선택이유는 카이제곱 (${\chi}^2$) 분포를 따르는 정확검정(exact test)을 실시하였다. Results : 1. 노인환자들이 병원을 선택할 때 가족, 친척으로부터 추천을 받는 경우가 가장 많으며 이 경우 다른 인지경로에 비하여 치과에 대한 만족도가 가장 높았다. 2. 치과선택 이유에 따른 만족도를 비교하였을 때 첫째, 의사의 높은 진료수준, 둘째, 친절한 서비스에 만족도가 높았다. 또한 치과선택이유가 의사의 높은 진료수준과 친절함을 포함한 의사요인이 가장 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 3. 치과위생사의 높은 진료수준과 친절도는 치과의료서비스 만족도에 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. 노인환자들의 만족도를 높이기 위해 노인에 대한 치위생교육이 필요하고 노인에 대한 지식뿐만 아니라 태도에 대한 교육도 실시되어야 한다. 4. 동일한 치과를 계속적으로 다니는 이유는 첫 번째 의사의 높은 진료수준, 두 번째 친절도로 의사요인과 관련이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 3-4년 이상의 장기내원환자는 의사의 높은 진료수준 다음으로 친절도를 중요한 이유로 선택하였다. Conclusions : 이상의 결과로 노인 환자가 만족하는 치과는 치과의사와 치과위생사의 진료수준이 높아야 하겠고, 다음으로 친절한 서비스가 중요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 노인환자들의 만족도를 높이기 위해 노인에 대한 치위생교육이 필요하고 노인에 대한 지식뿐만 아니라 태도에 대한 교육도 실시되어야 한다.

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate and analyzed the current status of a dental hygiene curriculum according to the dental hygienist competency. Methods: The study subjects were 59 courses in the department of dental hygiene in G University from April 1 to May 30, 2015. Except for liberal arts, 51 courses were finally selected and analyzed for the relationship between the curriculum and competency. For each course, systematic reviews were made by subject name, core competency, achievement goals, lecture hours, weekly themes, and learning goals. Three experts in the dental hygiene evaluated and analyzed the association of competency and goals. Results: Each course was operated by the goal from one to twenty two competencies of dental hygiene. Achieving one item of competency in a course required 13 hours on the average from minimum 2 hours to maximum 30 hours. More than 20 courses were operated and more than 900 hours were necessary for achieving the competency. The competency included the contents of 'Be able to utilize basic medical and dental knowledge in dental hygiene care and patient care' among the dental hygiene competencies. Conclusions: Competency based dental hygiene education will provide theoretical background for defining the identity of dental hygienist as a health care worker and to encourage professionals who contribute to the recognition of healthy society. Further research should be continued for improving the competency-based dental hygiene curriculum and education methods for implementing the curriculum within the paradigm of health care services.

대학에서 학습효과를 높이기 위해 신입생들을 대상으로 기초학습능력검사를 실시하고 있다. 대학별 수시 비율이 높아짐에 따라 특성화고등학교 학생들이 입학의 기회 폭이 증가하였다. 이과와 문과의 계열성을 떠나 수학, 영어 등의 기본 교육과정이 다르기 때문에 대학에 진학해서 그동안 배우지 않은 전공 교과목에 많은 어려움을 느끼고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 보건계열 치위생과에 입학한 학생들의 가장 기본 전공과목인 치위생학개론 수업 전 구강에 관련된 지식을 다 각도에 따라 분석하여 이를 기초한 교수 학습 방법 및 학습자의 능동적인 수업 참여와 함께 동기 유발이 될 수 있도록 함에 있다.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the effects of smart-learning on the education of dental hygiene students. Methods: This study was conducted on 135 students in the dental hygiene department from a single university, with a pre-test implemented in order to verify the homogeneity of the experimental (smart-learning exposed) and control groups. Following each group's lecture, we measured the study achievements of the students via a post-test, and their learning satisfaction through a questionnaire. An independent t-test was conducted to examine the homogeneity of the two groups and to compare both study achievements and learning satisfaction. Furthermore, a paired t-test was performed in order to compare the study achievements before and after lectures. Results: The average learning satisfaction level of the experimental group was $4.65{\pm}0.43$, which was higher than that of the control group ($4.46{\pm}0.54$) (p<0.05). After comparing the study achievements of the groups, there was no statistically significant difference between them, both before and after lectures. Paired comparisons conducted on the overall study achievements showed that they significantly increased following lectures when compared to what they were beforehand, in both the smart-learning and control groups (p<0.001). Conclusions: Smart-learning can be expected to result in positive effects for dental hygiene education, and further structural studies on the various types of smart-learning are needed.

이 연구는 보건계열 학과에 재학중언 학생들의 윤리의식에 미치는 영향요언을 살펴보고자 4개 전문대학 보건계열 학과에 재학중인 학생 650명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 연구방법은 개별자기기입법에 의한 설문조사법이었고, 설문은 윤리 지식수준을 측정하기 위한 문항과 윤리교육에 대한 경험과 필요성을 묻는 문항, 윤리의식에 미치는 영향 요인을 묻는 문항, 윤리의식을 배우는 역할모델을 묻는 문항으로 구성하였다. 수거된 설문은 596부이었고, 회수율은 91.7% 이였다. 연구결과, 의료관계법규 지식수준과 팀웍 지식수준이 다른 윤리 지식 수준에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났고, 의료관계법규 지식수준은 전문 윤리교육 필요성을 인지하고 있는 학생에서 높은 것으로 나타났다. 전문가 윤리 지식수준은 전문 윤리교육 필요성을 인지하고 있는 학생에서, 3학년에서, 직업 윤리교육경험이 있는 학생에서 높은 것으로 나타났다. 의사결정판단 지식수준은 전문 윤리교육 필요성 인지, 임상실습경험, 윤리의식 영향요인, 전문 윤리교육청험이 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 이 중 가장 큰 영향을 미친 변수는 임상실습경험이었다. 팀웍 지식수준은 역할모델이 종교단체라고 응답한 학생에서, 윤리의식 영향요인이 가정이라고 응답한 학생에서, 전문 윤리교육을 경험한 학생에서 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 보아, 윤리교육의 필요성을 인지하고 있는 학생일수록 윤리 지식수준이 높은 것을 알 수 있었으며, 이 외에도 다양한 변수를 고려하여 후속 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료되었고, 본 연구를 통하여 보건계열 학과에 재학 중인 학생들에게 윤리에 대한 사고 기회를 부여했다는 점과 윤리 의식수준을 점검했다는 점에서 의의가 있다고 사료되었다.
