Abstract

This study was conducted to figure out the influential factors on premenstrual syndrome(PMS) of college female students which are to be utilized as the basic data to develop and apply programs for preventing and controlling such symptom. The subjects were 330 college female students. The data were collected from April 2, 2012 to April 6, 2012. From the results, There has been significant correlation between stress and PMS(r=.36, p<.001) and the attitude to menstruation has appeared to have significant positive correlation with PMS as well(r=.34, p<.001). Multiple regression analysis has been employed to identify the influential factors on PMS and the result has shown that menstrual attitude, grade point average for stress, smoking and dysmenorrhea have been the most significant influential factors with 27% of explanatory power. The level of significance has been high in menstrual attitude(${\beta}$=.28, p<.001), grade point average for stress(${\beta}$=.27, p<.001), smoking(${\beta}$=.20, p<.001) and dysmenorrhea(${\beta}$=.15, p<.001) respectively. In conclusion, it needs to find nursing interventions for PMS related to psychosocial factors and suggest a narrative study for improving quality of life of women with PMS.

본 연구는 여대생의 월경전증후군에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하여, 월경전증후군을 겪는 여대생에게 예방과 중재를 위한 프로그램 개발과 적용의 기초 자료로 활용하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. G시의 여대생 330명에 대한 자료를 2012년 4월 2일부터 4월 6일까지 수집하였다. 연구 결과 여대생의 스트레스 전체 평균 평점은 $2.50{\pm}.74$, 월경에 대한 태도 평균 평점은 $3.07{\pm}.02$, 월경전증후군의 전체 평점 평균은 $2.67{\pm}.60$이었다. 스트레스는 월경전증후군과 유의한 정적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났고(r=.36, p<.001), 월경에 대한 태도와 월경전증후군도 유의한 정적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다(r=.34, p<.001). 월경전증후군에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위하여 다중회귀분석을 실시한 결과 월경에 대한 태도, 스트레스 평점, 흡연, 월경통이 유의한 영향 요인이었으며, 설명력은 27%이었다. 가장 주요한 영향 요인은 월경에 대한 태도(${\beta}$=.28, p<.001)이었고, 그 다음으로는 스트레스 평점(${\beta}$=.27, p<.001), 흡연(${\beta}$=.20, p<.001), 월경통(${\beta}$=.15, p<.001)이었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 토대로 심리사회적 요인을 고려한 새로운 간호 중재 방법을 모색하고, 삶의 질 향상을 위한 내러티브적인 접근을 통한 질적 연구를 제언한다.
