Abstract

It is revealed that there are more registered disabled people in our country who have their disability because of acquired factors such as accidents than because of innate deformity. This phenomenon will continue and the incidence of acquired disability will increase more and more. Even though there is noticeable change, the social recognition toward the disabled is still negative. Particularly, university students are in the early adulthood according to the development of life-cycle, and this is the period that people have diverse social relationships, depart from unified frame and work in various fields, and set up their own thoughts and ideology with knowledge and skills acquired from university education. Therefore, in this study, we are going to search the recognition of the university students, who are in the previous period of entering into the society, toward the disabled, and if they have negative prejudice or attitude against the disabled, we are going to find the ways to improve on their awareness positively. The subjects of the survey were randomly selected among 230 out of total 250 students by visiting thirteen universities in Chungcheong Province, and were analyzed by using SPSS (ver. 18.0) program. T-test and One-way ANOVA were used as analytical methods to look into the difference of analysis of frequency, descriptive statistic, reliability analysis and attitudes for comprehending sociodemographic characteristics of the subjects of the survey. In conclusion, it has to be not a temporary or event-like training, but a training that makes people have positive recognition and attitude towards accurate information, knowledge, human rights, disability, and diversity. This thesis has a limitation to be generalized to the university students all over the country since the region is limited to a certain area.

우리나라 등록 장애인은 선천적 장애보다 후천적 사고 등으로 인해 발생되는 경우가 더 많은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 이러한 현상은 앞으로 지속되어 후천적 장애로 인한 발생률이 더욱 증가할 것이다. 이러한 변화가 두드러지게 나타나고 있음에도 불구하고 장애인에 대한 사회적 인식은 여전히 부정적이다. 특히, 대학생은 생애주기별 발달에 따라 성인기 초기라 할 수 있는데, 이 시기는 다양한 대인관계와 획일화된 틀에서 벗어나 다양한 분야에서 활동하고, 대학 교육에서 배운 지식과 기술을 가지고 자기 자신만의 생각과 이념을 정립해 가는 시기이다. 따라서 사회에 진입하기 바로 전 시기인 대학생들의 장애인에 대한 인식을 알아보고 부정적인 편견이나 태도를 가지고 있으면 그것을 긍정적인 태도로 개선시킬 방안을 찾아보고자 한다. 연구의 대상은 충청도지역 13곳의 대학교를 방문하여 무작위로 설문을 조사하여 총 250명의 설문 중 235명의 설문을 대상으로 선정하였고, SPSS(ver. 18.0)프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석기법으로는 연구대상의 인구사회학적 특성을 파악하기 위한 빈도분석 및 기술통계, 신뢰도 분석, 태도의 차이를 알아보기 위해 t-test와 one-way ANOVA를 실시하였다. 결론적으로 일시적이고 이벤트적인 교육이 아닌 올바른 정보 및 지식, 인권, 장애, 다양성 등에 대한 긍정적 인식과 태도를 기를 수 있도록 해야 한다. 본 논문은 지역이 한정되어 있어 전국의 대학생으로 일반화하기 힘들다는 한계점을 가진다.
