Purpose: This study investigated Korean healthcare providers' attitudes toward sexual and gender minority (SGM) persons and their knowledge and behavior concerning the collection of data on sexual orientation and gender identity (SO/GI). Methods: In this cross-sectional, descriptive study, 137 Korean healthcare providers were recruited through convenience sampling from internet communities for medical professionals. A structured questionnaire was created using Google Surveys. The Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman correlation analysis were performed. Results: The sample was mostly women (80.3%) and nurses (83.9%), who had overall negative attitudes toward SGM persons and low levels of knowledge and behavior with regard to the collection of patients' SO/GI data. Participants in their 20s, who were religious, and had clinical experiences in treating or providing nursing care for SGM persons had higher levels of knowledge about the collection of SO/GI data. The level of engagement in collecting SO/GI data was higher among women and in their 20s and 30s, unreligious participants, nurses, and those with less than 10 years of clinical experience. Positive attitudes toward SGM persons were associated with higher levels of knowledge, but lower levels of behavior, regarding the collection of SO/GI data. Conclusion: It is important to recognize the diversity of patients' SO/GI and to collect the corresponding information. To this end, it is necessary to develop and use a standardized SO/GI form. Healthcare providers should also receive education and training related to the health of SGM persons to resolve health problems that disproportionately affect SGM persons and related health disparities.

이 연구는 발달장애인을 돌보는 장애인공동생활가정 종사자 6명을 대상으로 발달장애인의 성문제 행동에 관한 이들의 인식을 총체적으로 이해하여, 장애인복지실천 현장에 필요한 유용한 논의점을 제시하기 위해 Giorgi의 현상학적 연구 방법을 활용하여 자료를 분석 하였다. 분석 결과, 발달장애인의 성문제 행동과 성인식 2가지 본질주제로 분류할 수 있었고, 성문제 행동은 '성적 욕구를 과도하게 표출하는 존재', '성범죄로 연결될 수 있는 부적절한 성행동' 2개의 하위주제로, 성인식에서는 발달장애인 성문제에 대한 '적절한 해결방안의 부재', '성적 매력을 갖기에는 불리한 조건', '좌절된 성', '딜레마의 문제', '비장애인과 다르지 않는 성', '연애와 성관계는 OK, 임신과 결혼은 NO' 라는 6개의 하위 주제로 총 8개의 하위주제를 도출할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 장애인공동생활가정 종사자들은 성인기 발달장애인의 성문제 행동에 대한 적절한 해결 방안이 없다는 것에 대한 문제의식을 가지고 있으며, 발달장애인의 성규범을 강화하고 재생산해내는 주요 주체로서의 역할에 기여하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이들은 발달장애인의 성규범과 관련하여 가치관 혼란도 함께 경험하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 발달장애인 성에 대한 종사자들의 고정관념적 시각에 관해 되짚어보고, 그들의 성을 바라보는 시각에 관하여 담론형성의 장과 발달장애들의 성을 지원하기 위한 대책마련에 관한 보다 실효성 있는 장애인공동생활가정 종사자의 상담 및 교육프로그램이 필요하다는 것을 제언하였다.

The purpose of this study was to assess the adolescents' perceptions of AIDS by reviewing the research findings on adolescents' knowledge and attitudes about AIDS, and to provide basic data for the development of AIDS prevention education program. Literature for the analysis was searched by using the terms 'AIDS', 'HIV', 'Adolescent', 'Student'. Finally, 17 articles from Korea and 3 from abroad were analysed. Major conclusions were as follows: 1. For the knowledge level of AIDS, most of the adolescents knew the definition, high risk group, and infection rout of AIDS. On the contrary, the knowledge level of the treatment of AIDS was low. 2. For the attitudes toward AIDS, the level of perceived severity was high. But the level of perceived susceptibility found to be low. Middle and high school students showed more positive attitudes toward AIDS patients than college students. Attitudes toward AIDS prevention education program were positive, but taking the blood test for the detection of AIDS was negative. 3.

이 보고서는 아동성폭력에 대한 개인의 인식에 영향을 주는 요인들을 규명하기 위해 진행되었던, vignettes를 이용한 연구결과들에 대한 검토이다. Vignettes를 이용한 연구는 self report의 단점이라 할 수 있는 응답에 있어서의 신뢰도 저하와 편견개입을 방지하게 된다. 문헌고찰 가운데서 인식과정에 영향하는 요인들을 두 개의 그룹으로 나눌 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 첫 번째 그룹에 속한 영향요인들은 성폭력 행위의 특성(성폭력 행위의 종류와 성폭력 행위의 빈도), 성폭력피해자의 특성(피해자의 나이, 성별 및 피해자의 저항정도), 그리고 성폭력 가해자의 특성(가해자의 나이, 성별 및 가해자와 피해자의 관계)이다. 또 다른 그룹의 영향요인은 성폭력 상황을 인식하는 개인의 배경변수들이며 이 요인들은 응답자들의 인구학적 요소들 즉 응답자의 직업, 성별, 나이, 교육정도. 결혼여부. 자녀의 유무, 자녀의 수. 직업 근무년수. 성장기의 성폭력 경험여부 등을 포함한다. 결론적으로 아동성폭력과 관련된 전문가들의 아동성폭력 상황에 대한 인식은 그들의 아동성폭력 상황대처에 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 따라서 인식에 영향을 주는 요인들을 정확히 규명하는 것은 반드시 필요한 일이다. 이를 실천함에 있어 vignettes을 이용한 연구는 아동성폭력 상황인식에 영향하는 요인들을 규명하는데 가장 정확한 정보를 제공한다는 측면에서 큰 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다.

Objectives : This study aimed to examine current educational experiences, knowledge, intention to report, and requests for child abuse education in medical interns. Methods : A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 2006 and 2007. The study sample consisted of 193 medical interns who served their internships at the university hospital. They answered 11 self-administered questionnaires related to child abuse. Results : Although respondents indicated a strong will to assist in eradicating abuse of children, about 90% had no educational experiences and knowledge of child abuse. Ignorance was a major factor for low reported cases of abused children. The preferred nominated reporting agency for child abuse was the National Child Protection Agency in 47.9% of female respondents, while 48.3% of males nominated Police Stations as their preferred option. In relation to sexual abuse, Police Stations were the preferred reporting agency by 49.2% of males and 37.0% of females. Medical school curricula were chosen by the majority of interns as the most appropriate stage where child abuse education should be introduced. Conclusion : This study found that medical graduates had limited experience and knowledge related to child abuse. The medical school curricula for child abuse needs to be further developed, implemented, and evaluated when appropriate.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the health risk behaviors, mental health and subjective health status of adolescents in multicultural families and monocultural (Korean) families. This study was conducted to prepare basic data for education and policy proposals related to health promotion of adolescents in multicultural families. Methods: The study was a secondary analysis using the raw data of the 15th Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (2019). A complex sample multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to understand the influence of growing up in a multicultural family on health risk behaviors, mental health and subjective health status by comparing the variables to those of monocultural adolescents. Results: Adolescents from multicultural families had a 3.3 times higher rate of drug use experience, 1.89 times higher rate of sexual experience, and 1.24 times higher rate of not wearing seat belts. In addition, the rate of not washing hands and the rate of suicide attempts were 1.34-1.50 times and 1.62 times higher, respectively, compared to adolescents from monocultural families. Conclusion: This study showed that it is necessary to develop appropriate health promotion programs to solve the problems of drug use, sexual intercourse, not wearing seat belts, not washing hands, and attempting suicides, which are more prevalent among adolescents from multicultural families than from monocultural families. It will serve a basic policy for the long-term development and growth of Korea at this critical time when multicultural adolescents are increasing.
