Abstract

The purpose of this study was to survey the relationship of the self-esteem of high school students, their oral health knowledge and practice, AMPQ and life satisfaction in a bid to provide some information on how to lead high school students to get into the right oral health habits. The subjects in this study were the students who were in all the seven senior classes in a high school that was selected by convenience sampling from a city in Gyeonggi province. After a survey was conducted in November, 2010, the following findings were given: There were no significant gaps among the students in every regard according to whether they received academic or vocational education. But the students who received academic education had a better oral health knowledge than the others, though the intergroup gap was not significant. As a result of checking the influence of the variables affecting the oral health practice of the adolescents, AMPQ was identified as the most influential variable, and oral health knowledge and subjective health status also had an impact on oral health practice. There were statistically significant differences according to those variables (p<0.001).

본 연구는 고등학생들을 대상으로 자아존중감, AMPQ 및 삶의 만족도와 구강건강지식과 실천의 상호연관성을 파악하여 고등학생이 올바른 구강건강습관을 수행하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 이루어졌다. 2010년 11월 경기도 이천시에 소재한 고등학교 1개교를 편의 추출하여 3학년 전체 7개 학급 학생을 대상으로 구강검사와 설문조사를 실시한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 계열별에 따라서는 인문계와 실업계에 따른 자아존중감, AMPQ, 삶의 질, 구강건강지식 및 실천 모두 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 성별에 따라서는 남녀 학생의 AMPQ가 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 여학생의 AMPQ가 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 2. 변인에 따른 구강건강지식과 실천에서는 구강건강지식에 대해서 자아존중감, AMPQ, 삶의 만족도 모두 각 변인의 상위그룹과 하위그룹에서 유의한 차이가 나타났으며(p<.05), 상위그룹 고등학생들의 구강건강지식이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 3. 구강건강지식과 상관관계가 있는 변인은 구강건강실천이 가장 높았고 그 외에도 자아존중감, 삶의 만족도, AMPQ와 양(+)의 상관관계가 있었으며, 결손치아와는 음(-)의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 4. 고등학생의 구강건강실천에 영향을 미치는 변인들의 영향력을 살펴본 결과, AMPQ가 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변인으로 조사되었으며, 다음 순위로는 구강건강지식, 주관적 건강인식이 영향을 주는 변인으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해보면, 고등학생들의 구강건강 증진을 위해서는 AMPQ와 자아존중감, 삶의 만족도가 구강건강지식 및 실천과 연관성이 높다는 것을 본 연구에서 확인할 수 있었다.
