The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of cultural competence and its influencing factors among 530 dental hygiene students. The analysis was performed using PASW Statistics ver. 18.0, and the following conclusions were drawn. Cultural knowledge levels showed a significant difference according to general characteristics in four components of cultural competence levels. Cultural competence and its four components were higher in subjects who have a religion (p<0.05). The differences in cultural competence levels according to culture-related characteristics are as follows. In individuals with experience of taking foreign culture-related classes, intention to work overseas, or fluency in a foreign language, cultural competence levels and its four components such as cultural comfort, knowledge, awareness, and behavior intent were higher (p<0.05). Intention of overseas employment was the factor most strongly influencing the level of cultural competence of the subjects. The more intention the subjects have to work overseas, the more they have experienced foreign culture-related lessons, the more fluently they speak a foreign language, and the higher level of cultural competency they reached (p<0.05). As the research results show, it is necessary to establish a continuing plan to understand and communicate with individuals of other cultures through foreign language and foreign culture classes in schools in order to improve the level of cultural competence. This education would reduce the fear and stress that subjects might make a mistake in meeting with people from other cultures, and it could be a preparatory process to actively carry out dental hygiene practice with foreigners.

본 연구는 요양보호사의 역량수준을 평가하고 경력과 고용형태에 따라 역량수준 평가점수를 실증적으로 검정하여 요양서비스의 질적 향상을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 수집된 자료는 요양보호사의 역량수준을 보다 정확하게 평가하기 위하여 업무수준 평가요인 및 서비스 질의 평가요인에 대한 가중치를 설정한 후, 관계의 정도를 파악하는 퍼지관계를 사용하여 분석하였다. 이러한 접근은 요양보호사 개인별 평가요인과 개인의 역량수준을 보다 적확하게 파악할 수 있다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 요양보호사의 경력에 따라서는 요양기술, 신뢰성, 보증성, 유형성이 통계적으로 유의하였다. 또한 요양보호사의 고용형태에 따라서는 직업의식, 대응성, 감정이입, 유형성이 통계적으로 유의하였다. 요양보호사의 역량수준을 향상시키기 위해서는 경력, 고용형태를 고려하여 직업의식을 향상시키고, 요양기술을 습득할 수 있는 환경을 조성해주어야 할 것이며, 서비스의 질을 높이기 위해서는 경력보다는 고용형태의 안정성을 부여하는 것이 의미 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

Methods: In this study, a descriptive survey design was used with convenience sample of 228 nursing students at a University in Chungbuk Province. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple stepwise regression. Results: The mean scores for critical thinking disposition, problem solving ability, and clinical competence were at the intermediate level. Significant positive correlations among critical thinking disposition, problem solving ability, and clinical competence were found. The regression model explained 46.8% of clinical competence. Problem solving confidence was the most significant predictor of clinical competence, other variables were intellectual fairness, intellectual eagerness/curiosity, and prudence. Conclusion: The study findings suggest that nursing students with higher levels of critical thinking disposition and problem solving ability will have a higher level of clinical competence. Furthermore, problem solving confidence might be the most important predictor in clinical competence. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce the new teaching strategies in nursing education, strategies that will improve critical thinking disposition, problem solving ability, and clinical competence.
