Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the health education conducted for adolescents in the past 10 years by 5-year cycles. Methods: This study was conducted, targeting 200,008 students attending junior high school and high school, using the data of the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey in 2005, 2010 and 2015. The collected data was analyzed by Rao-Scott $x^2$ test, using SPSS program. Results: The overall implementation of health education has increased over the past decade, showing statistically significant differences between 2005, 2010 and 2015 (p<.05). The type of health education given the most was sex education (68.9~74.5%) in 2005 and 2010 and safety education (83.8%) in 2015, whereas the least given health education was personal hygiene education (18.2%) in 2005 and oral health education (22.0~24.0%) in 2010 and 2015. In addition, the implementation rate of health education was statistically significantly lower in high school than in middle school in all three years, 2005, 2010 and 2015. As the grades got higher, the implementation rate of health education showed a statistically significant decrease (p<.05). Conclusion: Health education for adolescents needs to be provided equally. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare an education policy for students to benefit from adequate health.
