초록

본 연구는 융복합 시대를 살아가고 있는 간호사와 간호대학생의 죽음과 안락사에 대한 태도를 조사하기 위해 실시되었다. 연구 대상자는 380명의 간호사와 간호대학생이었으며 2014년 5월부터 6월까지 자료를 수집하였다. 자료 수집은 자가보고식 설문지를 이용하였고 분석은 SPSS win 18.0 프로그램으로 기술적 통계, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test를 하였다. 연구결과 간호대학생이 간호사보다 타인의 죽음에 대한 두려움이 높게 나타났고(t=-3.34, p=.001), 간호대학생이 간호사보다 안락사를 지지하는 것(t=-3.06, p=.002)으로 나타났다. 하위영역 별로 분석한 결과 죽음에 대한 태도는 간호사와 간호대학생 모두 '자신이 죽어가는 과정에 대한 두려움'이 가장 높았고, '타인이 죽어가는 과정에 대한 두려움'이 가장 낮았다. 안락사에 대한 태도에서는 간호사와 간호대학생 모두 중요한 요인은 '대상자의 권리'이었다. 이 연구결과를 바탕으로 윤리적 갈등을 최소화하면서 간호실무의 바탕이 되는 교육 및 프로그램 개발이 요구된다.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the attitudes towards death and euthanasia of Nurses and Nursing students live in convergence era. The participants were 380 nurses and nursing students and data were collected from May until June of 2014. The data were collected by means of self reported questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics t-test, one-way ANOVA and Scheffe test with the SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. The result showed that the fear of death of others with nursing students was higher than nurses (t=-3.34, p=.001) and nursing students supported euthanasia more than nurses(t=-3.06, p=.002). Among the death attitude, both of the nurses and the nursing students had the highest score 'fear of their own dying' and the lowest score 'fear of the dying of others'. Regarding attitude to euthanasia, both of them the most important factor was 'the right of the client'. These results suggest that death education program to deal with nursing services without ethical conflicts should be developed.
