본 연구는 대학생을 대상으로 칫솔 휴대 여부에 따른 구강건강관리행태를 파악하여, 대학생이 학교에서 구강건강관리를 수행하지 않는 이유를 탐색하고, 대학생들의 바람직한 구강건강관리활동 및 프로그램 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구에 참여한 대상자는 부산 소재 K대학 재학생 2,788명이었다. 남성은 1,536명(48.7%), 여성은 1,252명(51.3%)이었고, 전공별로는 보건계열이 670명(24.0%), 비보건계열이 2,118명(76.0%)으로 나타났다. 전공에 따른 칫솔 휴대 비율은 보건계열 670명 중 473명(70.6%)였고, 비보건계열 2,118명 중 770명(36.4%)로 보건계열 학생이 칫솔을 휴대하는 비율이 더 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 칫솔을 휴대한 1,243명의 학생 중에서 외부에서 식사 후 칫솔질을 꼭 해야 하기 때문에 휴대해야 한다고 응답한 대상자는 보건계열이 74.8%로 비보건계열보다 높았고, 칫솔 휴대 여부에 따른 구강건강 관리행태는 칫솔을 휴대하고 있는 그룹에서 학교 내 칫솔질 실천율과 치실이나 치간솔의 사용율, 음주 후 칫솔질 실천율이 칫솔을 휴대하지 않는 그룹보다 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 학교 내에서 칫솔질 실천율을 조사한 결과, 학교에서 이를 닦는 비율은 42.8%로 나타나, 학생들의 절반 이상이 학교에서 이를 닦지 않는 것으로 조사되었으며, 그 이유를 조사한 결과, '귀찮아서 이를 닦지 않는다'는 비율이 가장 높았다. 대학생들의 구강보건에 대한 신념과 태도 및 지식을 올바르게 형성시키려면, 현 시점에서는 대학생을 대상으로 구강보건교육을 우선적으로 시행하는 것이 시급하며, 칫솔 배분이나 칫솔 교체 사업 등과 같은 실질적인 대학생 대상 건강증진활동이 필요할 것으로 사료되었다.

Purpose: Topic modeling is a text mining technique that extracts concepts from textual data and uncovers semantic structures and potential knowledge frameworks within context. This study aimed to identify major keywords and network structures for each major topic to discern research trends in women's health nursing published in the Korean Journal of Women Health Nursing (KJWHN) using text network analysis and topic modeling. Methods: The study targeted papers with English abstracts among 373 articles published in KJWHN from January 2011 to December 2021. Text network analysis and topic modeling were employed, and the analysis consisted of five steps: (1) data collection, (2) word extraction and refinement, (3) extraction of keywords and creation of networks, (4) network centrality analysis and key topic selection, and (5) topic modeling. Results: Six major keywords, each corresponding to a topic, were extracted through topic modeling analysis: "gynecologic neoplasms," "menopausal health," "health behavior," "infertility," "women's health in transition," and "nursing education for women." Conclusion: The latent topics from the target studies primarily focused on the health of women across all age groups. Research related to women's health is evolving with changing times and warrants further progress in the future. Future research on women's health nursing should explore various topics that reflect changes in social trends, and research methods should be diversified accordingly.
