Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the variables of success in the national dental hygienist licence examination at D college. The subjects in this study were 120 dental hygiene juniors at D college located in Gangwon Province. The collected data were analyzed by the statistical package SPSS WIN 13.0 and a R2.13.2 program, and $x^2$(Chi-square) test, regression analysis, multiple linear regression analysis and logistic regression analysis were utilized. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. There was a tendency that the pass rate was higher among the students who were more satisfied with their major, whose academic standing was higher and who scored higher in trial examinations. 2. There was a positive correlation between academic standing and trial exam scores. 3. When their academic standing and satisfaction level with major were the same, an increase of one point in trial exams led to a 1.141-fold rise in the probability of passing the national exam. In this study, trial exam scores were identified as the variable to exert the largest influence on success in the national dental hygienist qualification exam. Therefore more intensive guidance should be provided for students who make a preparation for the national exam yet score low in trial exams.

본 연구는 2011년 11월 14일부터 11월 25일까지 강원도에 위치한 D대학교의 치위생과 3학년 재학생 중 120명을 대상으로 치과위생사 국가시험 합격의 변인에 대하여 조사 분석하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN 13.0 프로그램과 R 2. 13. 2 프로그램을 이용하여, $x^2$(Chi-square) 검증, 회귀분석, Multiple linear Regression, Logistic Regression 등을 실시하였으며, 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 전공에 대한 만족도, 학업성적, 모의고사 성적이 높은 학생이 많이 합격하는 경향을 보였다. 2. 학업성적과 모의고사 성적은 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 3. 학업성적 평균과 전공에 대한 만족도가 같은 경우, 모의고사성적 평균이 1점 증가하면 국가시험에 합격할 확률은 불합격할 확률에 비해 1.141배 증가하였다. 본 연구결과, 치과위생사 국가시험 합격에 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 변인은 모의고사 성적으로 나타난 바, 국가시험 준비 시 모의고사 성적이 낮은 학생을 우선적으로 집중 지도 관리하여야 할 것으로 생각된다.
