초록

본 연구는 성인을 대상으로 치매에 대한 지식, 태도, 예방교육 요구도를 파악하여 성인의 치매예방을 위한 간호중재 전략과 예방교육 프로그램 개발을 위한 기초자료로 제공하고자 시도되었다. 서울에 거주하고 있는 일반 성인 중 연구에 동의한 127명의 성인을 대상으로 자가보고 형식의 설문지를 작성하도록 하였다. 분석한 결과 치매 지식 정도는 8.17점(12점), 치매에 대한 태도는 7.14.점(10점), 치매예방에 대한 교육요구도 정도는 4.56점(5점)으로 높게 나타났다. 일반적 특성 변수와 각 요인과의 관련성을 알아보기 위하여 분석한 결과 치매교육요구도는 교육정도에서 유의한 차이가 있었고(p<.05), 치매교육에 대한 관심정도에서는 직업에서 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<.05). 치매에 대한 지식과 태도, 치매에 대한 지식과 치매예방교육 요구도는 유의한 양의 상관관계(p<.01)로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 성인은 치매에 대한 지식수준이 높고 치매에 대한 태도 점수가 높게 나타나 치매에 대한 긍정적인 태도로 볼 수 있겠다. 이러한 결과는 추후 치매의 조기발견과 예방행위에 적극적인 태도를 형성하게 되므로 긍정적인 결과로 보인다. 그러므로 성인을 위한 치매에 대한 지속적인 정보제공과 치매에 대한 긍정적인 태도를 향상시켜 치매를 예방할 수 있는 개별적인 중재전략이 필요하겠다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the knowledge, attitudes and needs of preventive education for dementia in adults and provide them as basic data for developing nursing intervention strategies and preventive education programs for preventing dementia in adults. It collected data from 127 adults living in Seoul who agreed to the study and data were collected through personal interviews using a questionnaire. The level of dementia knowledge was high at 8.17, while the level of dementia attitude was high at 7.14, the need for dementia education was 4.56. The need for dementia preventive education was significant difference in the level of education, and the degree of interest in dementia preventive education showed a significant difference in the participant's occupation. The correlation of knowledge, attitudes and educational needs about dementia showed a significant amount of correlation. In this study, adults had a high level of knowledge about dementia and high attitude scores on dementia. Further studies are needed to increase the positive attitude toward dementia, education programs that increase knowledge need to be provided continuously as they are related to the increase in knowledge about dementia.
