Abstract

The purpose of this descriptive survey was to investigate the duration of exclusive breastfeeding practice and its related factors of married immigrant Vietnamese women. And to provide baseline information necessary to develop education programs for the promotion of exclusive breastfeeding practice among them. 125 married immigrant Vietnamese women with a child between 6 months and 60 months old were conveniently recruited in two Multi-cultural Family Support Center in Chungcheong area. Data were collected through interviews using a structured questionnaire of Korean and Vietnamese versions. The data were analyzed using frequencies, t-test, ANOVA, Stepwise multiple regression with SPSS 18.0 program. The results were as follows; 1) The mean duration of exclusive breastfeeding of the subjects was 15.9 weeks. 2) As the infants grows older, the rate of formula feeding and mixed feeding were markedly increased. 3) Stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that breastfeeding education and family type were significant determinants of the duration of exclusive breastfeeding practice. This model accounted for 30.8% of the duration of exclusive breastfeeding practice. Based on these results, we recommend to develop systematic breastfeeding education program in order to promote the duration of exclusive breastfeeding practice among married immigrant Vietnamese women.

본 연구는 결혼이주 베트남 여성들의 완전모유수유 실천 기간 및 관련 요인을 파악하여 추후 이들의 모유수유실천 증진을 위한 교육프로그램 개발 시 기초자료로 활용하기 위한 목적으로 실시하였다. 서술적 조사연구로, 대전, 충남지역에 거주하고 있는 결혼이주 베트남 여성 중 생후 6개월 이상 5세 이하의 자녀를 둔 125명을 대상으로 구조화된 질문지를 이용하여 면접법에 의해 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 빈도와 백분율, t-검정, ANOVA 및 단계별 다중회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였고, 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 결혼이주 베트남여성의 완전모유수유 실천기간은 평균 15.9주 이었다. 둘째, 생후 6개월간 아기의 월령이 증가됨에 따라 완전모유수유 실천율은 감소하고, 분유수유와 혼합수유가 증가하였다. 셋째, 완전모유수유실천 기간에 영향을 미치는 요인은 가족형태, 모유수유 교육유무였으며, 이들 변인의 설명력은 30.8% 이었다. 이상의 연구결과 모유수유 교육유무가 완전모유수유 실천에 중요한 예측요인임을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러므로 결혼이주 베트남 여성의 완전모유수유 실천기간 증진을 위한 체계적인 교육프로그램 개발과 그 효과를 검증하는 후속 연구의 필요성을 제언한다.
