Abstract
This study was conducted with 500 citizens of one metropolitan city to prepare foundational data for the opening of health promotion course of traditional korean medicine. A questionnaire examined participants' general characteristics and their experience with and awareness of oriental treatment and a survey on the need for health promotion course of traditional korean medicine were used as the research tools. Results showed that 56.8% of respondents had an experience with oriental treatment over the last year. Participants who responded that oriental treatment was effective accounted for 72.3%. Respondents selected "subject and contents of class" (59.1%) as the important factor in attending the oriental health promotion course, and cardiovascular disease (23.7%) as the disease they wanted to learn about. They considered "self-health care method for diseases" (69.0%) as what they expected most from the class. The results of this study will be useful when planning health promotion course of traditional korean medicine to satisfy the participants' needs.
