Abstract

The purpose of this study was comparing the disability awareness of occupational therapists and none therapists, and investigating the disability awareness according to the demographic characteristics of the respondents. The questionnaire was distributed through the online with a questionnaire based on social network service, and analyzed 62 responses of none therapists and 60 responses of occupational therapists. In results, disability awareness was not significantly different between occupational therapists and none therapists(p>.05). But, in subscale of disability awareness item 4 and 7, occupational therapists were significantly higher than none therapists(p<.05). In all respondents, disability awareness was more positive in males than females(p<.05). Also, there was no difference in disability awareness according to presence of disabled persons among family members or relatives(p>.05). However, All respondents who answered 'Yes' in the presence of disabled persons among family members or relatives in responders were significantly higher than those who answered 'No' in item 4(p<.05). There was no correlation between age and disability awareness(p>.05). The authors discussed suggestions in results of this study.

본 연구의 목적은 작업치료사와 일반인 사이의 장애에 대한 인식을 비교하고 응답자의 인구학적 특성에 따른 장애에 대한 인식을 알아보기 위함이다. 설문지는 소셜 네트워크 서비스 기반의 설문을 통하여 편의표본추출 방법으로 온라인 배포되었으며, 일반인의 응답 62건, 작업치료사의 응답 60건을 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 장애인식은 작업치료사와 일반인 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>.05). 그러나 장애인의 하위항목 4번과 7번에서 작업치료사가 일반인보다 유의하게 높았다(p<.05). 모든 응답자에서 남성은 여성보다 장애인식이 긍정적이었다(p<.05). 가족 또는 친척 중 장애인의 유무에 따른 장애인식은 차이가 없었다(p>.05). 그러나 가족 또는 친척 중 장애인이 '있다'라고 응답한 자가 '없다'라고 응답한 자보다 항목 4번 항목에서 유의하게 높았다(p<.05). 나이와 장애인식에서는 상관이 없었다(p>.05). 본 연구의 결과에 대하여 시사점 등을 논의하였다.
