Abstract

This article tried to define the relations between knowledge of tuberculosis infection, behavior and prevent behavior of the students of the department of dental hygiene and of non-dental hygiene. The data was collected from May, 2017 to June, 2017. Characteristics relative to variables were measured. As the result, in tuberculosis infection for the students of the department of dental hygiene, the average point was 13.56points for knowledge; 45.75 points for behavior and 41.75points for prevent behavior. In tuberculosis infection for the students of the department of non-dental hygiene, the average point was 12.93points for knowledge; 45.58points for behavior and 42.01 for prevent behavior. As the result of the study, the student's knowledge of tuberculosis had the effect on behavior, but it didn't have the effect on prevent behavior, on the other hand, it had the effect on prevent behavior. The result of this study may be utilized for an educational program for preventing tuberculosis infection of the students.

본 연구의 목적은 치위생학과 학생과 타 학과 학생의 결핵(Tuberculosis) 감염에 대한 지식과 태도 및 예방 행위 사이의 관계를 확인하는 것으로 하였다. 일반적 특성은 백분율을 구하였고, 결핵에 대한 지식, 태도, 예방행위의 관련성 분석은 상관관계분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과 치위생학과 학생들의 결핵 감염에 대한 평균점수는 지식 13.56점, 태도 45.75점, 예방행위 41.75점 이었다. 타 학과 학생들의 결핵 감염에 대한 평균점수는 지식 12.93점, 태도 45.58점, 예방행위 42.01점 이었다. 두 그룹 학생들의 결핵에 대한 지식에서 예방행위에 미치는 태도의 매개효과 결과, 학생들의 결핵지식은 태도에 영향을 미치지만 예방행위에는 영향을 미치지 않고, 태도는 예방행위에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 학생들의 결핵 감염에 대한 예방행위를 향상시키기 위해서는 지식과 태도의 조정이 필요할 수 있다. 본 연구는 학생들의 결핵 감염 예방을 위한 교육 프로그램에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
