This research aims to adapt and evaluate the validity and reliability of the Korean version of the Interdisciplinary Education Perception Scale (K-IEPS). The original IEPS was translated into Korean according to the World Health Organization's guidelines. A total of 302 questionnaires were collected from healthcare professional students at 4 universities in South Korea. The validity and reliability of the scale were measured using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), Cronbach's alpha, and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). As a result of the factor analysis, a ten-item scale with two factors (Competency & Autonomy and Perception of Actual Cooperation) was achieved. Additionally, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be .87, and test-retest reliability was .83. Our study results show that the Korean version of the IEPS is a valid and reliable instrument. Therefore, the K-IEPS can be used in measuring interdisciplinary perceptions of healthcare professional students between different occupational groups.

Objective : This study sought to explore occupational therapy students' awareness of Developmental Rehabilitation Services (DRSs) and the certification of Sensory Developmental Rehabilitation Service Providers (SDRSPs). Moreover, it also aimed to examine the differences in students' awareness based on general characteristics. The findings were intended to provide a foundation for research on sensory developmental rehabilitation. Methods : An online survey was conducted among 199 occupational therapy students nationwide from October 4 to November 5, 2022. Frequency analysis was used to assess the general characteristics and additional items. Both descriptive statistics and frequency analysis were employed to assess the students' awareness of DRSs and SDRSP certification. Any differences in the students' awareness based on their general characteristics were examined using t-tests and an analysis of variance. Results : The students' awareness of DRSs was moderate (4.50 ± 2.40), while their awareness of SDRSP certification was also moderate (4.22 ± 2.55). The awareness of DRSs varied significantly based on the students' academic year and child-related practice experience. Similarly, the awareness of SDRSP certification differed significantly based on the students' academic program, academic year, recognition by the related department, and child-related practice experience. Conclusion : The occupational therapy students expressed a strong intention to provide DRSs and become certified as SDRSPs. However, their awareness levels were moderate. These findings emphasize the importance of educational efforts and the provision of relevant information about DRSs and SDRSP certification in universities to foster the development of competent SDRSPs.

Objective : The aim of this study was to investigate the infection management awareness and infection prevention management status of students who participated in occupational therapy and clinical practice. Methods : The study was carried out from June 27th to August 4th, 2017, to survey the awareness and practice of infection control in 11 practice institutes among 193 students who had experience in 8 universities. Results : A total of 93.3 % of the respondents said that they needed education about infectious diseases, but 53.3 % of them did not receive infection prevention education at school or in clinical trial institutes. Hygienic practices for infection prevention and infection control practices related to handwashing were high, but the use of protective equipment was poor in the observation of swallowing disorder treatment. It is also important to educate students who have been trained in infection control. However, infection prevention training at universities and training centers is insufficient suggesting the importance of future infection education. Conclusion : Infection control education to prevent infection is necessary not only for clinicians but also for students participating in on-the-job training. Effective efforts are also needed in universities and clinical practice institutes so that infectious disease prevention education can be implemented. This study provides basic data for infection control education in universities and practice educational institute that perform clinical training and occupational therapy.

본 연구에서는 해부학강의에 있어 혼합강의의 적용가능성을 평가하였다. 2007~2009년 매 1학기동안 강원대학교 의과대학 간호학과 학생(n=143)을 대상으로 해부학강의를 가상강의 9회, 면대면 강의 3회, 사체해부실습 2회로 구성된 혼합강의로 실시한 후 설문을 통해 자기평가요인(만족도, 난이도, 흥미도, 유용성, 평가의 적절성, 학업성취도, 운영의 적절성, 이론실습연계성), 학업성취별 자기평가요인, 자기평가요인간의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 자기평가요인의 난이도는 평균$2.96{\pm}0.63$점으로 전반적인 강의수준은 적절했던 것으로 나타났고 나머지 모든 요소들은 평균 3.82~4.21점 사이로 평가되어 간호학과에서 해부학강의를 위한 혼합강의의 적용이 매우 긍정적인 것으로 나타났다. 학기종료 후 화보한 최종성적을 기준으로 세 그룹(상위, 중위, 하위)으로 나누어 자기평가요인과의 관계를 분석한 결과, 모든 요소에서 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(p>0.05). 자기평가요인 간의 상관관계는 난이도와 전공연계성의 유용성(r=0.300, p<0.0003),혼합강의의 유용성(r=0.210, p<0.0137), 평가의 적절성(r=0.323, p<0.0001), 이론실습연계성(r=0.216 0.0097)이 높을수록 상관성을 보였다, 만족도, 전공연계성의 유용성, 혼합강의의 유용성, 이론실습연계성에서는 학업성취도를 제외한 모든 요소에서, 흥미도는 난이도와 학업성취도를 제외한 모든 요소에서 유의성 있게 높은 상관성을 보였다. 하지만 학업성취도에서는 평가의 적절성을 제외한 다른 요소에서는 연관성을 보이지 않아 성적과 관련해 영향을 미치는 요소가 없다는 것으로 판단되어지며 본 연구를 위해 도입된 강의구성이 해부학의 균형 있는 학업성취를 유도할 수 있는 수업방식이라 판단되었다. 결론적으로 본 연구를 통해 해부학강의에 있어 혼합강의의 우수한 교육효과를 알 수 있었고, 간호학과만이 아닌 최근 급증하고 있는 의료-보건계열의 다양한 전공자를 위한 적용, 확대로 해부학지식의 질적 향상과 강의수요에 비해 부족한 해부학 전공 교수진들의 교육 부담을 경감할 수 있는 효과적인 교수법으로 활용가치가 있다고 사료된다.
