  • 우리 사회의 고령화와 저출산이 심각한 사회문제로 제기되면서 경제활동인구의 감소에 대비해 입직연령 하향의 필요성이 강하게 제기되기 시작했다. 이를 위해 취학연령의 하향, 수학년한의 단축 등과 같은 학제개편 논의가 제기되고 있으나 학자들이나 이해단체 간의 이견이 분분하고, 관련 종사자들간의 이해관계가 얽혀 단기간에 합의를 도출하기는 어려운 상황이다. 따라서 현 제도적으로 가능한 조기졸업 활성화에 대한 진지한 논의는 하나의 대안이 될 수 있다. 여기에서 입직연령 하향과 대학경쟁력, 그리고 조기졸업제의 효과적인 활용방안에 대해 살펴보기로 하자.

  • Background: Even though cervical cancer poses a significant global cancer burden, successful implementations for early detection offer an opportunity to prevent deaths and reduce the cancer burden. In Korea, cervical cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among adult women, but it is one of the few cancers in which a consensus-approved screening test exists for early diagnosis, Pap test, that can be combined with highly efficacious treatment regimens for early-stage disease. Purpose: This study was carried out to identify the cognitive-behavioral factors associated with cervical cancer screening behavior among adult women, aged 40 to 59, and to develop tailored messages and to evaluate the effectiveness of stage-matched educational program. Method: A total of 283 women who aged 40 years or older was recruited in Seoul, from September, 1st to November, 14th, 2003. The intervention group (N=162) and the control group (N=121) were selected from five sub-districts in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Building on the TTM, a quasi-experimental study was conducted to test the effectiveness of stages-matched intervention addressed at the five stages of cervical cancer screening behavior. Women in the intervention group were randomly assigned to one of two conditions, internet or postal services. Results: In our results, 88.9% of participants had received a Pap test at least once in their life-time, and 65.4% had got it in the past two years. With regard to cognitive-behavioral factors, the stages-matched educational program increased attitude and process of change for cervical cancer screening. The percentage changed was the largest in maintenance stage. With regard to delivery methods for tailored messages, the print materials were more effective at increasing screening adherence than the e-mail. Whereas the postal service group showed remarkable the change of behavior stage, the internet service group did not. Also it was not shown any difference of the satisfaction with stages-matched educational program between internet and postal service groups. Conclusion: This study suggested that cervical cancer screening behavior could be changed by tailored messages which had developed with cognitive-behavioral factors. The stages-matched educational program was effective to promote the screening adherence for cervical cancer.
