The purpose of this study is to explore the anti-smoking message effects and smoking status on smoking belief attributes. Based on the health behavior theories such as theory of reasoned action, health belief model, and social cognitive theory, three factors are selected to investigate the effects of anti-smoking campaign messages. The balance of benefits and barriers, self-efficacy, and social pressure are selected as independent variables. Three two-way ANOVA were conducted. Results showed that the main effect of social pressure were found with the social smoking attributes. Interaction effects were found on the nonsmoker-social pressure group and the non-smoker-two sided message group. It is found that nonsmokers accepted these two anti-smoking messages easily as compared to smoker groups. No main smoking status was found in this study; it is believed that smoking is a habitual that is not changed easily because attitude formation takes time. Results revealed that the two-sided message video releases and the social pressure video releases were favored by both smokers and nonsmokers. This study contributes the theoretical framework that can be transferred to the practices of anti-smoking campaign. Also, the researcher produced the televised stimuli which is not common in health message studies. By using the televised message material, the research tried to solve the validity problem which is common in experimental design.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of smoking prevention smoking cessation program using smoking cessation supporters on the smoking knowledge and beliefs and self-efficacy of smoking cessation of nursing students. The smoking prevention and smoking cessation program developed for this study consisted of general education on smoking (8 times for 30 minutes each time) and the activities of college student smoking cessation supporters. The 30 college student smoking cessation supporters consisted of 6 people per team, a total of 5 teams, and conducted online video promotions by team, smoking cessation promotion and campaign activities, recruiting and mentoring for smoking cessation challengers. As a result of the study, smoking prevention and smoking cessation programs using smoking cessation supporters were effective in increasing nursing students' smoking knowledge and changing their beliefs about smoking negatively. In particular, by understanding the awareness and overall situation of smoking among nursing students, and operating a smoking prevention and smoking cessation program, it made them realize that smoking prevention and secondhand smoke among non-smokers are threatening the health of others. It contributed to the spread of the smoking cessation culture in the university by providing a way to motivate people to quit smoking and to maintain their success in quitting smoking.

This study was conducted to explain adolescents' smoking behavior using Health Belief Model. A cross-sectional study design was used to analyze characteristics and factors that influence smoking behavior among Korean adolescents. A total of 1.535 adolescents attending 21 high schools in one district of Seoul participated in the study. The results indicated that perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers were significant in predicting smoking behavior of adolescents. Likewise, the degree of juvenile delinquency, gender, the amount of pocket money, and having smoking parent(s) and friend(s) significantly affect smoking behavior of adolescents. Based on the study results, it is recommended to incorporate HBM components in smoking cessation programs, and to include parents and friends in smoking prevention and cessation programs for high school students in Korea.

Results: Mean score for attitude to smoking was $23.7{\pm}3.2$, beliefs about smoking, $18.6{\pm}2.9$, and nicotine dependence, $4.3{\pm}2.1$. Attitude to smoking of the woman smokers was significantly different according to marital status, beliefs about smoking were significantly different according to marital status and being employed. Nicotine dependence was significantly different according to frequency of alcohol consumption, stress, number of cigarettes smoked. There was a correlation between attitude to smoking and beliefs about smoking. Age when starting to smoke, number of cigarettes, and length of time one has smoked accounted for 31.0% of nicotine dependence. Conclusion: The results indicate that increasing knowledge and improving attitudes toward smoking as well as training on stress management and exercise are needed. Also, a distinct mediation should be developed for women smokers.

본 연구는 건강신념모형의 주요 변수와 고지혈증 환자의 건강행태와의 관계를 파악하여 고지혈증 환자의 건강행태를 촉진하고 더 나아가 만성질환 보건사업 및 교육프로그램을 계획하는데 기초 자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. 자료는 2009년 07월부터 2010년 9월까지 총콜레스테롤이 240mg/dl 이상이고, 중성지방이 200mg/dl 이상으로 고지혈증을 진단받은 20세 이상의 성인 남녀 146명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였으며, SPSS WIN(14.0 한글판) 프로그램을 이용하여 Chronbach's alpha의 신뢰성 분석, 요인분석, 단변량 및 다변량 분석을 시행하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 본 연구에서는 LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, TG에 대한 인지수준 중 TG에 대한 인지가 가장 높았고, 3가지 모두를 인지한 경우는 28.08%였다. 또한 9가지 항목에 대한 고지혈증 지식수준은 9점 만점에 평균 6.51이었으며, 지식수준이 높을수록 건강행태수준도 높았다. 둘째, 요인분석을 통하여 10개의 건강행태를 2개 요인으로 재분류 하였다. 그 결과, 건강행태 요인 1은 '식이, 운동 습관 및 고지혈증 검사 및 관련 검사요인', 건강행태 요인 2는 '흡연, 음주 습관 및 고지혈증 치료 관련 요인'이었다. 건강행태 요인1에 유의한 관련성이 있는 건강신념변수는 심각성, 이득, 장애로 나타났고, 취약성은 상관 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 각 신념 요인들과 건강행태 간의 상관되는 순서는 이득(r =.455), 심각성 (r=.38), 장애(r=-.244) 순으로 나타나 고지혈증에 대한 이득 인식이 건강행태 요인1과 가장 관련성이 높은 것으로 파악되었다. 그러나, 건강행태 요인2는 건강신념변수와 관련성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 행동계기에 따른 건강행태의 관계를 살펴보면, 교육을 받았을 때 건강행태 요인1과 요인2에 모두 유의한 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타나, 교육이 고지혈증 환자의 건강행태에 중요한 영향을 미치는 것을 보여 주었다. 넷째, 다중회귀분석 결과 고지혈증 건강행태 요인1에 영향을 미치는 요인 중 유의한 요인으로 인지된 심각성 및 이점 신념요인, 교육여부, 보건소 교육정도 이었다. 건강행태 요인2에서는 성별, 연령, 교육여부가 유의한 영향을 미치는 요인으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면 건강신념모형이 고지혈증 건강행태를 예측하는데 적합한 모형이라고 판단 할 수 있으며, 건강행태 요인 특성에 따라 건강신념변수 중 고지혈증 예방에 대한 이득을 높이 인식할 수 있도록 프로그램과 교육목표를 설정하면 보다 효과적인 교육이 될 것이라 생각된다.
