본 연구는 여자 간호대학생의 낙태에 대한 태도의 영향요인을 분석하기 위한 연구이다. 2개 대학의 여자 간호대학생 181명을 대상으로 2017년 4월 17일부터 30일까지 낙태에 대한 태도에 대해 자기기입식의 설문조사를 실시하였다. 일반적 특성에 따른 낙태에 대한 인식차이는 independent t-test, 성지식, 성태도, 생식건강증진행위, 낙태태도 변수간의 상관관계는 Pearson 상관계수, 낙태태도의 영향요인은 위계적 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 낙태태도에 영향을 주는 요인은 종교(${\beta}=0.22$, p=.029), 소득수준(${\beta}=0.48$, p=.005), 성태도(${\beta}=-0.17$, p=.014)였으며, 낙태에 대한 태도와 성태도 간에 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 여자 간호대학생의 낙태태도는 종교, 경제상태, 그리고 성태도 인식에 따라 영향을 받고 있음을 파악할 수 있었으며, 예비의료인으로서 올바른 성 가치관을 형성하기 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: This study identifies correlations among information needs and knowledge about prenatal genetic screening and diagnosis (I-PGSD & K-PGSD), and attitude toward terminating pregnancy (ATP) among pregnant women in South Korea. Methods: A descriptive survey was conducted from January 2013 to April 2014 in South Korea. 222 pregnant women responded to three questionnaires developed by the authors. The questionnaire for I-PGSD consisted of 19 questions; 18 questions for K-PGSD; and 10 questions for ATP. Results: Mean scores were $80.46{\pm}11.73$ for I-PGSD; $14.86{\pm}3.74$ for K-PGSD; and $33.71{\pm}6.13$ for ATP. The ATP score was positively correlated with the I-PGSD and K-PGSD scores, but statistically significant with only I-PGSD (p=.006). I-PGSD scores were higher than average on three genetic syndromes (Down, Patau, and Edwards syndrome), on management after the diagnosis of positive fetal aneuploidy, and on test result interpretation after the amniocentesis and level II fetal ultrasonogram. Conclusions: In light of current legal and moral controversy regarding terminating pregnancy and rapidly advancing prenatal genetic testing technology, more prenatal genetic education for nurses and nursing students who teach pregnant women is needed. In addition, more professional counseling services provided by trained nurses are also required.

Purpose: There recurred controversies related to legal allowance of abortion since newly advancing prenatal genetic testing technology. This survey was aimed to identify the attitudes toward marriage, and pregnancy (AMP) and terminating pregnancy (ATP) among Korean nursing students. Method: A descriptive study was performed from October to November 2012 in South Korea. 424 nursing students responded to two types of tools developed by authors. Questionnaire for ATP is consisted of 10 items with 5-points Likert Scale. Questionnaire for AMP is 12 items containing 5 categories. Results: Mean score of ATP was 36.90. Students that are enrolled in bachelor degree had a significant higher ATP. Students who are currently dating with an opposite gender showed much higher level of ATP than those are not. Lower group of delayed the time of getting marriage and pregnancy showed highest score of ATP, significantly. Conclusion: Individual factor must be primarily considered when assessing ATP of nursing students, for example current relationship with opposite gender and educational background, attitude toward marriage and pregnancy. Further studies are needed to identify personal factors of the young adults affecting on the ATP.

Purpose: There has been a considerable increase in the number of women giving birth at advanced age. The genetic screening of such women is highly desirable. Clinical nurses, however, are not adequately trained to assist such clients. This study aims at identifying the educational needs of nurses in order for them to provide better care and treatment for such women. Methods: 206 South Korean clinical nurses participated in this study. Study variables were measured by nurses' attitudes toward terminating pregnancy (ATP), knowledge of prenatal genetic screening and diagnosis (K-PGSD), and information needs for prenatal genetic screening and diagnosis (I-PGSD). The statistical analysis included T-test, analysis of variance and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient. Results: Mean scores were 34.57±5.73 for ATP, 16.44±3.04 for K-PGSD, and 78.81±10.95 for I-PGSD. The findings demonstrate that nurses have high information needs (I-PGSD) to take better care of women who have positive results from their amniocentesis tests. Conclusion: Information needs among clinical nurses are not currently being met. Education for nurses must include training in counseling to encourage patients' autonomous decision-making regarding their pregnancies.
