Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the food hygiene and safety awareness of academic and specialized high school students, in order to provide basic materials characterization and demonstrate the need for differentiated food hygiene safety education by type of school in the Chungnam area. This study shows that the academic high school students attach more importance to Food Hygiene and Safety than the specialized high school students, but that the latter think it is easier get information about food safety and are more confident in choosing safe food than the former. Regardless of the type of school, 50.5% and 49.3% of the students believed that the safety of the agricultural and livestock products and processed food distributed for sale in the country is acceptable, respectively. 40.7% and 17.2% of the students answered that school food hygiene safety education is required and strongly required, respectively. Compared to the specialized high school students (average 3.17), the academic high school students (average 2.81) responded that they did not receive sufficient food safety education. Those students who were confident in choosing safe food showed a positive correlation with those who were confident in the hygienic handling of food (r = .662) and with those who have sufficient education on food safety (r = .504). We suggest that different food hygiene safety education is needed by academic and specialized high school students until they have sufficient confidence in the hygienic choosing and handling of food.

본 연구는 충남 지역 일반 고등학생과 특성화 고등학생의 식품위생안전인식을 알아보고 학교유형별 차별화된 식품위생안전교육의 필요성 제기와 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 연구 결과 일반 고등학생들은 특성화 고등학생들보다 유의적으로 식품위생 안전을 중요하게 생각하였으나, 일반 고등학생들보다 특성화고등학생들이 유의적으로 식품안전에 대한 정보를 얻기 쉽고, 안전한 식품을 고를 자신이 있다고 조사되었다. 학교유형별 차이 없이 우리나라에 판매 유통되는 농축산물에 대해서는 조사대상자의 50.5%가, 가공식품에 대해서는 49.3%가 안전성이 그저 그렇다고 응답하였고, 학교 내 식품위생 안전교육이 필요하다. 40.7%, 매우 필요하다는 17.2%의 학생들이 응답하였다. 특성화고등학생들(평균 3.17)에 비해 일반 고등학생(평균 2.81)들은 식품안전 교육을 충분히 받고 있지 않다고 응답하였고, 안전한 식품을 고를 자신이 있다는 학생은 '식품을 위생적으로 다룰 자신이 있다'(r=.662), '식품안전에 대한 교육을 충분히 받고 있다'(r=.504)와 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 본 연구 결과는 일반고와 특성화 고등학생들이 식품을 위생적으로 안전하게 고르고, 다룰 자신이 있도록, 차별화된 식품위생 안전교육이 필요함을 제언한다.
