  • 본 연구는 대학생들에게 구강보건교육이 치과공포도와 구강보건교육 후 치과공포에 대한 인식변화에 효과가 있는지 알아보고자 한다. A지역에 위치한 B대학교에 재학 중인 보건관련 재학생과 비보건관련 재학생을 대상으로 2017년 4월 5일부터 4월 12일까지 대상자들에게 교육을 실시하여 교육 전 설문조사, 교육 후 설문조사를 시행하였다. 결과를 SPSS 19.0 프로그램을 사용하여 통계자료를 T-test를 사용하여 추출하였다. 결과로는 교육 후 치과진료에 대한 두려움은 보건학과 학생이 비보건학과 학생보다 더 크게 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 비보건학과 학생들이 보건학과 학생들에 비해 강의 후 구강건강에 대한 인식변화가 더 크게 나타났다. 치과진료에 대한 교육 후 구강건강에 대한 인식변화는 비보건학과 학생들에 비해 보건학과 학생들에게서 더 크게 나타났다. 추후에 효율적이고 전문적인 교육으로 치과위생사를 배출하여야 하고, 이를 통해 교육자로서의 치위생사 배출이 국민의 치과진료에 대한 공포도를 줄이고 인식을 변화시켜야 한다. 따라서 그들이 구강건강의 중요성과 구강병 예방과 초기 치료의 중요성을 인지하여 치과 내원을 두려워하지 않도록 공포도 및 인식관리를 위한 효과적인 교육 프로그램을 개발해야 한다고 사료되었다.

  • The purpose of this study was to find a better evaluation methody by comparison and analysis of the subdivision-score for preventive medicine with other subjects and the total score. Among the 475 students who were second grade in 1983, 1984 and 1985, we analyzed the stores for all subjects at Yonsei University College of Medicine obtained by 443 students, with the exception of 32 students who had had a temporary absence from school, failed or had been expelled. And we analyzed the score for preventive medicine of 162 students who were second grade in 1987 and 179 students who were second grade in 1988. Statistical analysis of the above data was done using the correlation analysis, chi-square test and discriminating index. The results were as fellows: 1. The correlations of the subdivision of preventive medicine in 1984, 1987 and 1988 were statisticall significantly high(r=0.36-0.56). 2. The grades obtained for preventive medicine and for other subjects except pediatrics (clerkship) were not independent. 3. The discriminating indices that determined whether or not a pertinent evaluation was made were 0.42 in 1983, 0.52 in 1984 and 0.54 in 1985. These results were classified as excellent. These results suggest that the score of a subject is determined not by the characteristics of the subject, but by the amount of personal study.

  • Purpose: This study was undertaken to identify the effect of current health conditions and preparation for old age of university students on the awareness of successful aging. Methods: Totally, 273 university students, based across several cities in South Korea, were enrolled for the study. Data collected were analyzed by applying descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression, using the SPSS Statistics 23.0. Results: There were three types of hierarchical regression model for awareness of successful aging in university students. Its explanatory power of each model was adjusted R2 of .04, 07, and .31 respectively. Major (β=.14, p=.007), health condition (β=.13, p=.028), preparation for old age (β=.52, p<.001) were significant predictors of awareness of successful aging. Conclusion: Our study results indicate that for university students, diverse interventions to promote the awareness of successful aging must focus on improving the health condition and enhancing preparation for old age.

  • Objectives: During the second coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) surge, cases increased sharply due to low awareness and compliance with measures to limit disease spread. Health literacy (HL) is an important component of public health initiatives, and schools are potential sources of health education to increase HL via the presentation of COVID-19 educational modules. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved an online questionnaire administered to students from 5 high schools in Surabaya and Sidoarjo, Indonesia, 6-7 weeks after the start of government-issued directives restricting public gatherings. We collected data on each respondent's age, gender, parental education, and socioeconomic variables. HL was determined by the Health Literacy Measure for Adolescents. We additionally measured their attitudes and behaviors related to preventing the spread of COVID-19. The students were asked if they watched the COVID-19 module at school, their feelings about vaccination, and preferred online sources of COVID-19-related information. Results: Most of the 432 respondents had viewed COVID-19 modules at school. Module exposure was associated with significantly higher total and domain-specific HL and more positive attitudes toward government-issued COVID-19 restrictions on travel and public gatherings (p<0.05). However, behaviors to prevent COVID-19 spread and vaccine acceptance were not associated with module exposure. Most students chose social media as their source of COVID-19-related information. Conclusions: Schools can provide information to increase adolescents' HL and the public's support for health initiatives to prevent or limit the spread of COVID-19.

  • Purpose: This study used a self-deterministic approach to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), academic motivation (AM), and achievement among health science students. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in three cities of Saudi Arabia (Dammam, Riyadh, and Jeddah). A convenience sample of 450 students was incorporated using the multistage cluster sampling technique. The online survey contained three sections: students' basic data and academic achievement level, the modified Schutte self-report inventory, and the Academic Motivation Scale lowercase. Results: This study revealed moderate overall scores for EI (57.1%), AM (55.6%), and grade point average (GPA) (57.6%). The overall EI score, its domains, and GPA had significant positive correlations with overall AM and intrinsic and extrinsic motivation (p < .01). Amotivation had an insignificant correlation with GPA (p < .05), but it was negatively correlated with EI and its domains (p < .01). Multiple regression analysis proved that EI domains predicted 5.0% of GPA variance; emotions appraisal and expression (β = .02, p = .024), regulation (β = .11, p = .032), and utilization (β = .24, p < .01). EI domains also predicted 26.0% of AM variance; emotions appraisal and expression (β = .11, p = .04), regulation (β = .33, p < .01), and utilization (β = .23, p < .01). Moreover, AM predicted 4.0% of the variance in GPA; intrinsic (β = .25, p = .004) and extrinsic (β = .11, p = .022) motivation. AM also predicted 25.0% of the variance in EI: intrinsic (β = .34, p < .01) and extrinsic motivation (β = .26, p = .026). Conclusion: EI and AM have a bidirectional influence on each other, significantly shaping the GPA of health sciences students in Saudi Arabia, where intrinsic motivation has a predominant role. Thus, promoting students' AM and EI is recommended to foster their academic achievement.

  • The objective of this study were to evaluate the relation between post-examination management states of dental caries in elementary school students and a mother's dental health beliefs. We systematically chose 10 elementary school in urban and rural areas of Chungnam Province and determined the first class students of 5 and 6 grade in each school as study subjects. Among 837 participants, 669 students were diagnosed with dental caries after a 1998 periodic dental health examination was answered completely and analysed. The contents of the questionnaire for students were general characteristics, dental health behaviors, notification factors, treatment factors. Their mothers were surveyed by another questionnaire. The contents of the questionnaire for mothers were also general characteristics, dental health behaviors, and dental health beliefs. The result of this study were as follows 1. The prevalence of dental caries was 65.0% and there was no significant difference between urban and rural areas. 2. Meanwhile, 63.8% of students in urban areas knew the examination result through a doctor's explanation, 52.4% of students in rural areas learned through a school notification letter, 82.9% of all the students let their parents know of their dental caries. 3. Among the dental caries group, 36.3% of the students were treated as for treatment, most students in urban areas visited a dental clinic, but those in rural areas visited the dental dept of a public health center as for the treatment time, 35.9% of the students were treated immediately after the examination. 4. 44.9% of those treated answered that they felt they needed treatment; 67.2% of those not treated answered that they considered the treatment as a bother and unnecessary due to no pain. 5. Overall, the scores in the dental health beliefs in mothers were low. Especially among the 5 items of susceptibility and seriousness, the scored were very low but the benefit was high. Logistic regression analysis showed that the treatment of a child's dental caries was significantly associated with low scores of benefit in those untreated and high scores among those treated. Considering these results, health education to stimalate a mother's susceptibility and seriousness in health beliefs and for students to learn the need for treatment, including a more detailed post exam management system at the school level should be considered for a higher treatment rate.
