지역아동센터 교사가 아동에게 일상적 구강보건교육을 실천할 수 있는 프로그램을 제공할 목적으로 일부 지역아동센터를 대상으로 전문가와 지역아동센터 교사가 협력하여 운영한 4주간의 구강건강증진 프로그램의 효과를 측정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 구강건강증진 프로그램 운영 전 후의 구강보건지식을 평가한 결과 교육 전 3.43점에서 교육 후 4.40점으로 상승하였고, 이는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.001). 2. 구강보건인식의 점수를 분석한 결과는 구강건강증진 프로그램 운영 전에 16.3점에서 운영 후 18.7점으로 지역아동센터를 이용하는 아동의 구강보건인식이 긍정적인 방향으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 3. 지역아동센터를 이용하는 아동의 구강건강증진 프로그램 전후 구강건강행동의 변화에서 간식자체를 먹지 않거나 2~3일에 1회 섭취한다는 빈도와 어제 칫솔질 여부는 소폭 증가하였다. 4. 반복적인 구강보건교육을 통해 아동들의 구강 내 치면세균막관리 점수는 개선되었다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과로 지역아동센터 아동의 구강건강을 증진시키기 위해 교사들의 지속적인 감독과 교육이 진행될 수 있도록 구강건강 프로그램의 내용 개발과 프로그램의 확대가 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: The economic evaluation of health promotion programs has increasingly become an imperative activity for securing public fund or budget. The purpose of this study is to conduct an economic evaluation for the healthy school canteen program using the contingent valuation method(CVM). Methods: To estimate the benefit from the healthy school canteen program, double-bounded dichotomous choice method as a sort of willingness to pay was employed. Four hundred parents who lived in Seoul and have students at middle or high schools, were administrated by semi-constructive questionnaire containing the necessary information for benefit estimation. Cost estimation of healthy school canteen program was made referring to three types of pilot programs. Finally, the benefit against the cost was worked out according to the three levels of estimated cost. Results: Cost estimate is 8,488 and 9,311 won depending on the two senarios about how to invest on the program, respectably. The results of benefit estimate shows that the average cost willingness to pay(WTP) for healthy school canteen program is 21,275 won(16,963-59,838 won, 95% CI) and total benefits turned out 14.7 billion won.

Purpose: This study compared the effects of two six-week school-based intervention programs - a health promotion program using a school forest and a traditional school health promotion program (TSHPP) - on physical and mental health among elementary school students. Methods: A total of 73 students participated in the study: 21 students in the 6-week school forest program conducted in a rural area and 52 students in the 6-week TSHPP conducted in an urban area. Children's health promotion behavior, depression and hyperactivity were measured using a self-report questionnaire. To assess children's physical health, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, and heart rate variability (HRV) were used. Results: Overall, both intervention programs improved participants' physical and mental health. Both programs significantly decreased the body fat percentage; this effect was more prominent in the TSHPP group. Only the TSHPP significantly decreased the participants' BMI after the intervention. The school forest group showed significantly improved relaxation and diminished hyperactivity; the TSHPP group showed significantly improved health promoting behavior and social relationship after the intervention. Comparing the two groups'post-pre difference scores, the two groups significantly differed only in social relationship. Both group showed significantly improved depression after the intervention. Conclusion: These findings support the effectiveness of these 6-week school-based health promotion programs in improving physical and mental health among school-aged children.
