Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of knowledge and risk perception of coronavirus disease-2019 on preventive health behavior among nursing students. The survey participants were 291 students in A city. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires between August 1 and 20, 2020. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression in SPSS ver. 18.0. Knowledge of COVID-19 was significantly dependent on age and school records. Risk perceptions were significantly dependent on educational grades. Age, health status, knowledge, and risk perception had significant effects on preventive health behavior, which was found to be positively correlated with knowledge and risk perception. Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that age significantly predicted preventive health behavior (β=.188, p<.01), health status (β=-.245, p<.001), knowledge (β=.254, p<.001), and risk perception (β=.191, p<.001) that it accounted for 18.9% (F=17.904, p<.001) of the variance. An educational program is required to enhance the preventive health behavior of nursing students in a background of COVID-2019 that considers student age, health level, knowledge, and perception of risk.

본 연구는 간호대학생들의 신종 코로나바이러스감염증-19의 지식 및 위험지각과 예방적 건강행위의 관련성을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. A시 S대학교에 재학 중인 간호대학생 291명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지로 2020년 8월 1일에서 8월 20일까지 설문조사하였고, SPSS WIN 18.0을 이용하여 Independent t-test, One-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, Stepwise multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 대상자 나이, 주관적 성적수준에 따라 지식 차이가 나타났고, 학년에 따라 위험지각 차이가 나타났으며, 나이, 주관적 건강수준에 따라 예방적 건강행위 차이가 나타났다. 예방적 건강행위는 지식, 위험지각과 순상관관계를 보였다. 회귀분석 결과, 예방적 건강행위에 미치는 요인은 나이(β=.188, p<.01), 주관적 건강수준(β=-.245, p<.001), 지식(β=.254, p<.001), 위험지각(β=.191, p<.001), 총 설명력은 18.9%(F=17.904, p<.001)로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 간호대학생의 신종 코로나바이러스감염증-19의 예방적 건강행위를 증진시키기 위한 교육 프로그램에서는 나이, 주관적 건강수준, 지식, 위험지각에 대한 고려가 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 추후 간호대학생의 코로나바이러스감염증-19의 예방적 건강행위에 대한 이론적 모형을 검증하고 영향요인을 확인하는 연구가 필요하다.
