Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine levels of awareness, attitude and practice of wearing seatbelt of university students using a long distance commute. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was used to investigate a convenience sample of 118 university students in Chungbuk province. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe'test using SPSS version 22. Results: A significant positive correlation was found among awareness, attitude and practice. There were statistically significant differences in awareness, attitude and practice according to some of general characteristics(gender, age, commuting time, the last point of no seatbelt, socioeconomic status). Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it can be used to develop an accident prevention and health education program.

본 연구는 통학버스를 이용하는 대학생의 안전띠 착용에 대한 인식, 태도 및 실천 정도를 분석하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상은 통학버스를 이용하는 대학생 118명이며, 자기기입식 구조화된 설문지를 이용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN 22.0 프로그램으로 분석하였고, 기술통계, Pearson correlation coefficients, t-test와 ANOVA를 실시하였으며 Scheffe's test로 사후검정을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 안전띠 착용에 대한 인식, 태도 및 실천 간에는 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 안전띠 착용에 대한 인식은 대상자의 마지막 안전띠 미착용 시점에 따라 차이가 있었고, 태도는 성별, 연령, 안전띠 미착용 시점에 따라, 실천은 대상자의 성별, 연령, 통학시간, 안전띠 미착용 시점, 경제적 수준에 따라 차이가 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 통합적인 안전사고 예방 보건교육 프로그램을 개발하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
