Purpose: This study investigated knowledge and attitude of home visitors in public health centers toward wife abuse and the actual status of how they were detecting wife abuse and providing interventions. Method: Data were collected using questionnaires from October 2003 to December 2004. The subjects were 403 home visitors at Public Health Centers around Korea. The data were analyzed using SPSS program. Results: The correction rate of knowledge related to wife abuse was 51.9%. The mean score of attitude toward wife abuse was 3.09 (SD=.40) out of 4. showing that their attitude is right. There was a significant difference in attitude according to age (F=3.27, p=.008). One hundred twenty six visitors (31.3%) detected wife abuses and each visitor confirmed 2.3 cases on the average. Forty eight respondents (38.1%) answered that they had provided interventions. Conclusion: This result implies that health visitors have difficulties in detecting wife abuse, and even for identified cases, the rate of providing interventions was low. It was because health visitors' educational experience in wife abuse is insufficient and they do not regard this work as their duty. These findings suggest the necessity for developing nursing in-service programs teaching health visitors their duties and knowledge related to wife abuse.

본 연구는 성인의 지각된 건강상태, 건강태도, 건강관심도 및 건강증진행위 사이의 관계를 파악하기 위한 공분산구조분석 연구이다. 자료수집은 2014년 5월부터 6월까지 4개 도시에 거주하는 만 20세부터 만 59세 성인 292명을 대상으로 지각된 건강상태, 건강태도, 건강관심도, 건강증진행위를 조사하고 지각된 건강상태와 건강태도를 외생변수로, 건강관심도와 건강증진행위를 내생변수로 하는 연구모형을 구축하였다. 수집된 자료는 AMOS 20.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 지각된 건강상태와 건강태도, 건강관심도는 건강증진행위에 직접효과가 있었으며, 지각된 건강상태와 건강태도는 건강관심도를 통해 건강증진행위에 간접효과를 있었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 성인의 건강증진행위 증진을 위해서는 장기적 관점에서 학교, 직장, 보건 의료기관을 통해 다양한 건강교육 프로그램을 운영하므로써 긍정적 건강태도 형성을 통한 건강관심도를 제고하고, 건강검진과 건강교육의 유기적 연계를 통해 자신의 건강상태에 대한 지각이 건강증진행위 참여의 계기로 이어 질 수 있도록 건강상담 개발 운영할 필요가 있다.

This study investigated the effect of a health-related lifestyle on knowledge, attitude, control belief and behavior intention toward breast-feeding of male and female university students in order to develop a breast-feeding education program for students of childbearing age. The subjects were 445 university students (125 male and 325 female) residing in eight provinces in Korea. The overall percentage of subjects intending to breast-feed their baby was 80.7% (73.6% of males and 84.2% of females). Overall, 84.2% of the subjects had high concerns about their health status. Scores reflecting a positive attitude, knowledge, and control beliefs toward breast-feeding were significantly higher (p<0.05~p<0.001) in female students, students majoring in medicine, and higher grades. The students who scored high at attitude, knowledge, and control beliefs also had a significantly higher (p<0.001) intention to breast-feed. When we investigated the sub factors of attitudes toward breast-feeding, significantly more students taking nutrient supplements scored high for physiological factors (p<0.05) and health-related factors (p<0.01). Significantly more non-smoking and non-drinking students scored high for health-related factors (p<0.001) and physiological factors (p<0.001), respectively. The intention to breast-feed was found to be significantly higher (p<0.01) in students who did not smoke, but not with other health-related lifestyles. In summary, these results indicate that the majority of university students intend to breast-feed, with students having a positive attitude, higher knowledge, and stronger control beliefs having a higher intention to breast-feed. Although a student's health-related lifestyle affects their attitudes on the physiological and health-related aspects of breast-feeding, only smoking status had an observable connection on the intention to breast-feed. Thus, when developing breast-feeding education programs for students, we recommend efforts to enhance a favorable attitude, knowledge, and control beliefs toward breast-feeding.
