The purpose of this research is to contribute to clinical researches on neck pain and cervical spondylosis by reviewing the latest research trends and evaluation tools through the analyses of clinical studies on neck pain and cervical spondylosis over the last 5 years. 70 papers satisfying the selection conditions among the RCT papers that had been searched as "neck pain" or "cervical spondylosis" at Pubmed(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed) from March 2011 to February 2016 were targeted. Papers were numbered in order of their publication dates and analyzed by classifying their contents into 1) pain classification, 2) treatment type, 3) treatment duration, 4) treatment time, 5) number of participants, 6) evaluation tools and methods of research, and 7) evaluation duration. 55 papers targeted chronic neck pain, 6 papers acute and subacute neck pain, and 2 papers subacute and chronic neck pain. In comparison by intervention, 43 papers corresponded to physical therapy, 3 papers to acupuncture, 1 to herbal fomentation, 5 to medication, and 18 papers corresponded to multilateral comparisons comparing the efficacy by various interventions. In research period, there were 50 papers based on treatment period, 16 papers based on the number of treatments, and 4 papers based on different periods depending on each group. In treatment duration, the cases from 1 month or more to less than 3 months were most, followed by the cases of less than 1 month, and the cases from 3 months or more to less than 6 months. In treatment frequency, the number of treatments of the treatment group was the same as that of the control group in 51 papers, and many treatments were conducted by the methods of acupuncture, manual therapy, and injection therapy in cases of once or twice of treatments, and physical therapy and electroacupuncture corresponded mainly to the cases from 3 times or more to less than 10 times of treatments, and retrospective observation and exercise programs corresponded mainly to the cases of more than 30 times of treatments. In the number of subjects of the researches, the cases from 50 or more to less than 100 were most, followed by the cases from 20 or more to less than 50. There were 7 evaluation tools cited 10 times or more: VAS, NRS, PPT, NDI, NPQ, CROM, and SF-36. In evaluation period, 37 papers evaluated only during the treatment period, and 33 papers conducted follow-up. In follow-up period, the cases of less than 3 months were most, followed by the cases from 6 months or more to less than 1 year, and the cases from 3 months or more to less than 6 months. When planning clinical researches on cervical pain in the future, appropriate intervention methods, frequency and duration of treatment, period of follow-up, appropriate number of subjects and selection of evaluation tools for objective validity will have to be considered. In addition, randomization, double-blind, etc. will have to be considered for researches with high basis level.

The major objective of this research is to identify those hospital characteristics that best explain cost variation among hospitals and to formulate linear models that can predict hospital costs. Specific emphasis is placed on hospital output, that is, the identification of diagnosis related patient groups (DRGs) which are medically meaningful and demonstrate similar patterns of hospital resource consumption. A casemix index is developed based on the DRGs identified. Considering the common problems encountered in previous hospital cost research, the following study requirements are estab-lished for fulfilling the objectives of this research: 1. Selection of hospitals that exercise similar medical and fiscal practices. 2. Identification of an appropriate data collection mechanism in which demographic and medical characteristics of individual patients as well as accurate and comparable cost information can be derived. 3. Development of a patient classification system in which all the patients treated in hospitals are able to be split into mutually exclusive categories with consistent and stable patterns of resource consumption. 4. Development of a cost finding mechanism through which patient groups' costs can be made comparable across hospitals. A data set of Medicare patients prepared by the Social Security Administration was selected for the study analysis. The data set contained 27,229 record abstracts of Medicare patients discharged from all but one short-term general hospital in Connecticut during the period from January 1, 1971, to December 31, 1972. Each record abstract contained demographic and diagnostic information, as well as charges for specific medical services received. The 'AUT-OGRP System' was used to generate 198 DRGs in which the entire range of Medicare patients were split into mutually exclusive categories, each of which shows a consistent and stable pattern of resource consumption. The 'Departmental Method' was used to generate cost information for the groups of Medicare patients that would be comparable across hospitals. To fulfill the study objectives, an extensive analysis was conducted in the following areas: 1. Analysis of DRGs: in which the level of resource use of each DRG was determined, the length of stay or death rate of each DRG in relation to resource use was characterized, and underlying patterns of the relationships among DRG costs were explained. 2. Exploration of resource use profiles of hospitals; in which the magnitude of differences in the resource uses or death rates incurred in the treatment of Medicare patients among the study hospitals was explored. 3. Casemix analysis; in which four types of casemix-related indices were generated, and the significance of these indices in the explanation of hospital costs was examined. 4. Formulation of linear models to predict hospital costs of Medicare patients; in which nine independent variables (i. e., casemix index, hospital size, complexity of service, teaching activity, location, casemix-adjusted death. rate index, occupancy rate, and casemix-adjusted length of stay index) were used for determining factors in hospital costs. Results from the study analysis indicated that: 1. The system of 198 DRGs for Medicare patient classification was demonstrated not only as a strong tool for determining the pattern of hospital resource utilization of Medicare patients, but also for categorizing patients by their severity of illness. 2. The wei틴fed mean total case cost (TOTC) of the study hospitals for Medicare patients during the study years was $11,27.02 with a standard deviation of $117.20. The hospital with the highest average TOTC ($1538.15) was 2.08 times more expensive than the hospital with the lowest average TOTC ($743.45). The weighted mean per diem total cost (DTOC) of the study hospitals for Medicare patients during the sutdy years was $107.98 with a standard deviation of $15.18. The hospital with the highest average DTOC ($147.23) was 1.87 times more expensive than the hospital with the lowest average DTOC ($78.49). 3. The linear models for each of the six types of hospital costs were formulated using the casemix index and the eight other hospital variables as the determinants. These models explained variance to the extent of 68.7 percent of total case cost (TOTC), 63.5 percent of room and board cost (RMC), 66.2 percent of total ancillary service cost (TANC), 66.3 percent of per diem total cost (DTOC), 56.9 percent of per diem room and board cost (DRMC), and 65.5 percent of per diem ancillary service cost (DTANC). The casemix index alone explained approximately one half of interhospital cost variation: 59.1 percent for TOTC and 44.3 percent for DTOC. Thsee results demonstrate that the casemix index is the most importand determinant of interhospital cost variation Future research and policy implications in regard to the results of this study is envisioned in the following three areas: 1. Utilization of casemix related indices in the Medicare data systems. 2. Refinement of data for hospital cost evaluation. 3. Development of a system for reimbursement and cost control in hospitals.

This study was carried out for the objectives to collect the basic informations on the health behaviors of the elementary school children in an urban area in Korea. Seven hundred students were drawn to fill in the designed questionnaire which carries variety of Questions on health re-lated behaviors in general, eating habits, disease history, mental health, and sex education. Questionnaire were filled in by their parents. Major findings are as follows: ① 55.7% had habits of washing the hands before eating whereas 59.8% trashing their hands after toilet. The others had no idea of washing hands before eating and after toilet. ② 26,5% had habits of brushing the teeth twice a day 54.7% only once in the morning, and 2.6% once only in the evening. Thus, the idea of prevention from decayed teeth seems to be lacking among the school children. ③ Bathing habits were also inquired to get 40.3% of bathing more than once a week, 43.1% once every two weeks, and the rest of 16.6% once every one to three months. ④ 41.7% keep the regular bedding time whereas 58.3% irregular. Physical exercises were con-ducted by 76.6% on the ground while 23.5% did not practice any physical exercises at all. Of those physical exercises, rope skipping occupied 37.5%, and the other 66.9% consisted of 14 different kinds of individual type physical exercises such as gymnastic exercise. The main reasons for not enjoying exercises were different by sex; boys largely complained the inadequacy and lack of gymnastic facilities and girls felt in short of friends who could join the exercises. ⑤ 31.9% of the school children had been taking not much of food while 28.3% had unbalanced diets. Of these unbalanced diets, meat occupied 33.2% to be the priority to have an order of the following items such as vegetables, bread or noodle, and fishes as next to each. For eating habits, 88.5% take simple snack such as bread (38.4%, cookies, fruits, and candies in order. 25.8% of the children were provided such snacks or their parents regularly. Breakfast was sufficiently taken by 45.0% whereas 8.4% had never sufficiently. As to the lunch, 63.6% had sufficiently while 16.8% insufficiently. 70.6% take breakfast with all family members together and 30.4% separately. Correlation of sufficient taking of breakfast and eating together of tile family member's seems to be significant when we compare 72.5% of sufficient takers who enjoy breakfast together with the family members with 55.6% of insufficient takers who enjoy it with the family. This finding allows the investigator to point out the importance of table circumstances for children's eating. ⑥ The most common disease was catching a cold (38.8%), and the second was stomach trouble to be followed by the frequency of car sickness, headache, and skin infection. Doctors are consulted only by 23.9% when they are sick whereas 59.7% resorted to the drug stores. The lower the educational attainment of the parents, the lower the rate of visiting clinics. ⑦ 36.7% of their parents pointed out the problems of personality guidance as the most difficult thing at home 71.3% of their parents worried about and unsatisfied with their children's personality traits. Of these complains of the parents, impatience stood at the top to be tabulated at 24.1%, and 21.1% indicated narrow-mindedness. In line with this primary socialization at home, the most crucial problem seems to be related with the lack or recognition of the parents'own role when we find only 43.1% of the parents understood the importance of their own role for the home education of children; the latter group attributed tile responsibility of personality formation to the children themselves. ⑧ As to the sex educational aspects, 30.9% of children have ever asked about the physiology of reproduction or sexual matters to their parents, of those parents only 17.0% could give the constructive responses to the inquiries of the children. In companies on with these data, 25.6% recognized their own role in sex education for their own children while the large segments of the parents (51.1%) attributed the responsibility of sex education to tile low level of 38.3% who recognized the importance of sex education in the school curriculum and 25.1% of the parents insisted to wait until they get to know naturally about sex. 38.1% of the parents said they had some knowledge on sex from books while 16.9% through mass media. The next groups had common senses of sex from their own parents, school friends and other sources.

This research intends to survey family environment, health behavior and health status of the students in urban-rural elementary schools and analyze those factors comparatively, and use the result as basic material for school health teacher to teach health education in connection with family and regional areas. It also intends to improve a pupil's self-abilitiy in health care. The subjects involve 2,774 students of urban elementary schools and 583 student in rural ones, who were selected by means of a multi -stage probability sampling. Using the questionnaire and school documents, we collected data on family environment, health behavior and health status for 19 days. Feb. 2nd 1998 through Feb. 20th 1998. The R -form of Family Environment Scale (Moos, 1974) was used in the analysis of family environment(Cronbach's Alpha =0.80). Questionnaires of Health Behavior in School-aged children used by the WHO in Europe(Aaro et al., 1986) and the ones developed by the Health Promotion Committee of the Western Pacific(WHO, 1995)(adapted by long Young-suk and Moon Young-hee(1996)) were used in the analysis of health behavior, as well documents on absences due to sickness, school health room-visits, levels of physical strength, height, weight and degree of obesity were used to determine health status. In next step, We used them with an $X^2$-test, t-test, Odds Ratio, and a 95% Confidence Interval. 1. In two dimensions of three, family-relationship (t=3.41, p=0.001) and system -maintenances(t= 2.41, p=0.0l6) the mean score of urban children were significantly higher than those of rural ones. In the personal development dimension however, there was little significant difference. Assorting family environment into 10 sub-fields and analyzing them, we recognized that urban children were superior to rural children in the sub-fields of expressiveness (t =3.47, p=0.001), conflict (t=0.48, p=0.001), active-recreational orientation (t = 1.97, p=0.049) and organization (t=4.33, p=0.000). 2. Referring to the Odds Ratios of urban-rural children's health behaviors, urban children set up more desirable behavior than rural children wear ing safety belts (Odds Ratio =0.32, p=0.000), washing hands after meals(Odds Ratio = 0.43, p= 0.000), washing hands after excreting (Odds Ratio = 0.39, p=O.OOO), washing hands after coming - home ( Odds Ratio = 0.75, p = 0.003), brushing teeth before sleeping(Odds Ratio =0.45, p=0.000), brushing teeth more than once a day (Odds Ratio =0.73, p=0.0l2), drinking boiled water (Odds Ratio = 0.49, p=0.000), collecting garbage at home(Odds Ratio=0.31, p=0.000) and in the school(Odds Ratio =0. 67, p=0.000). All these led to significant differences. As to taking milk(Odds Ratio = 1.50, p=0.000), taking care of eyesight(Odds Ratio=1.41, p=0.001) and getting physical exercise in(Odds Ratio = 1.33, p=0.0l9) and outside the school(Odds Ratio = 1.32, p=0.005), rural children had more desirable behavior which also revealed a significant difference. There was little significant difference in smoking, but the smoking rate of rural children(5.5%) was larger than that of urban children(3.9%). 3. Health status was analyzed in terms of absences, school health room-visits, levels of physical strength, and the degree of obesity, height and weight. Considering Odds Ratios of the health status of urban-rural children, the health status of rural children was significantly better than that of the urban ones in the level of physical strength(t=1.51, p=0.000) and the degree of obesity(t=1.84, p=0.000). The mean height of urban children ($150.4{\pm}7.5cm$) is taller than that of their counterparts($149.5{\pm}7.9$), which revealed a significant difference (t =2.47, p=0.0l4). The mean weight of urban children($42.9{\pm}8.6kg$) is larger than that of their counterparts($41.8{\pm}9.0kg$), which was also a significant difference(t=2.81, p=0.005). Considering the results above, we can recognize that there are significant differences in family environment, health behavior, and health status in urban-rural children. These results also suggestion ideas for health education. What we would suggest for the health program of elementary schools is that school health teachers should play an active role in promoting the need and importance of health education, develop the appropriate programs which correspond to the regional characteristics, and incorporate them into schools to improve children's ability to manage their own health management.

본 연구는 서울 강북 N구의 저소득 재가노인 가정배달급식대상자 45명과 무료 회합급식 이용자 81명 대상으로 건강상태 및 영양소 섭취량을 비교 조사하였으며, 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 연구대상자의 평균 연령은 남녀 모두 배달급식군(남자 77.3세, 여자 78.5세)이 회합급식군(남자 73.7세, 여자 74.2세)보다 많았으나, 유의한 차이는 아니었다. 체질량 지수 역시 남녀 모두 두 집단간에 유의한 차이를 보이지는 않았으나, 남자노인의 경우 배달급식군이 회합급식군보다 낮은 경향을 보였다. 두 집단 모두 학력은 무학 및 초등학교 졸업이 가장 많고, 90% 이상이 임대 아파트에 거주하여 두 집단간에 유의한 차이가 없었으며, 가족형태와 수입도 차이를 보이지 않았다. 생활비 조달방법은 두 집단 모두 정부보조금의 비율이 가장 높았으나, 회합급식군은 자력 또는 자녀의 도움도 23.4%나 차지하였다(p<0.05). 음주, 흡연, 수면시간은 두 집단간에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 배달급식군은 거의 운동을 하지 않은 반면 회합급식군은 38.3%가 일주일에 3번 이상 운동을 하였다(p<0.01). 뇌졸중(p<0.01), 호흡기질환(p<0.05) 및 외로움(p<0.05)의 비율은 배달급식 군에서 더 높게 나타났다. ADL과 IADL의 점수는 배달급식군에서 회합급식군보다 매우 낮았으며(p<0.0001), 영양의 균형을 생각하며 식사하는 빈도(p<0.05), 과일(p<0.01), 육 어류(p<0.01), 해조류(p<0.05)의 섭취 빈도와 식습관 점수 (p<0.0001)도 배달급식군에서 낮았다. 배달급식군과 회합급식군 모두 대부분의 영양소 섭취량이 RI 또는 AI 이하였다. 남녀 모두 배달급식군의 열량과 대부분의 열량영양소 섭취량은 회합급식군보다 적은 경향을 보였고 단백질섭취량은 여자노인에서 유의하게 적었으며, 칼슘, 칼륨, 비타민 A, 비타민 $B_1$, 비타민 $B_2$, 비타민 C, 엽산의 섭취 량은 RI 또는 AI의 50%에도 미치지 못하여 회합급식군보다도 매우 불량한 영양섭취상태였다. 특히 여자노인은 회합급식군과의 차이가 남자노인보다 더욱 심각하여 영양상태가 매우 열악하였다. 배달급식군의 영양소 섭취부족 대상자 비율은 무려 42.2%로 회합급식군보다 매우 높았다(p<0.0001). 따라서 배달급식군의 영양소 섭취량은 전반적으로 영양불량의 문제를 지닌 일반노인은 물론 무료회합급식 이용 노인들의 평균섭취량에도 미치지 못하는 매우 저조한 영양상태를 보여 경제력, 육체적 활동 및 건강상태 등이 매우 열악한 이들 집단에 대한 질 좋은 영양서비스의 제공이 국가적 차원에서 시급히 재고되어야 할 것이다. 연구대상자 특히 배달급식 대상자의 경우 모집의 어려움으로 인해 적은 수의 연구대상자의 결과를 보고한 것은 본 연구의 제한점이라 할 수 있다 따라서 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 좀 더 많은 대상자를 대상으로 한 조사 연구가 계속 이루어져 가정배달급식 프로그램의 개선을 위한 유용한 자료로 축적되어야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to develop a new nursing unit which can meet changing health care needs, enhance patients' satisfaction and nurses' job satisfaction, and finally guarantee quality nursing care with present manpower. For this, one medical unit was selected as a unit for quality care. And one medical unit which is similar in staffing and patients' characteristics was selected as a control unit. To assess present problems and identify the remedies to the problems a hospital-wide survey and a workshop were performed. According to the survey results, educational programs and improvement of the facilities and equipment supply system, managereal support for interdepartmental cooperation and intensification of bed-side nursing care were adopted as main principles for operating model unit, This model unit was operated for 3 months from Sep. 1, 1992 to Nov. 30, 1992. To evaluate the effectiveness of the model unit, derect/indirect nursing care hours, patients' satisfaction to nursing care, nurses' job satisfaction, and quality care index were measured. Direct/indirect nursing care hours were compared with that of the control unit, and patients' and nurses' satisfaction and quality care index were measured before and after operating model unit and compared with each other. The results of the study were as follows; 1. In the model unit mean direct nursing care hours per cach shift was 146.88 minutes and indirect nursing care hours was 354.72 minutes. The ratio of the direct nursing care hour to indirect nursing hour was 29.6 ; 70.4 and that of the control unit was 26.9 : 73.1. Direct nursing care hour in model unit was longer than that of the control unit. But, the difference was not significant. In subcategories of direct nursing care, the time spent in mobility and exercise, conservation of body temperature, hygiene, and communication and health education were longer than that of the con" trol unit. 2. Indirect nursing care hour in model unit was shorter than that of the control unit. But, the difference was not significant. In subcategories of indirect nursing care, the time spent in drug management and ward arrangement was shorter than that of the control unit. 3. Patients' satisfaction to nursing care was increased significantly after operating the model unit (T=-3.48, P=-0.002) and satisfaction to subcategories of physical comfort measure, psychological cate, and unit management components were significantly higher than before. 4. In the model unit, nurses' total job satisfaction was increased significantly after operating the model unit(Z=2.1004, P=.0357) and satisfaction to subcategory of satisfaction to administration was significantly higher than before (Z=-2.0732, P=.0382). 5. After operating the model unit, quality care index was increased from 89 to 93. With this results, it can be summarized that all the measures tried for quality care, such as educational programs, managereal support for interdepartmental cooperation, and improvement of the equipment and facility provision resulted in partial increase in direct nursing care hours, nurses satisfaction to their job and patients' satisfaction to nursing care. In can be postulated that managereal support and motivation without proper staff supplementation is not enough for increasing direct nursing care hours. And for the enhancement of the level in clinical nursing, and staff supplement must be considered sincerely and the measures for reducing indirect nursing care hours, such as computerization of nursing care activities, improvement of facilities and equipment and facilities supply system, must be instituted in addition.

도시하천은 산업혁명 이후 산업화 도시화가 진행되면서 무분별하게 복개 개발되어 지역주민들의 일상적 삶의 공간에서 멀어졌다. 최근 도시하천 복원사업이 진행되면서 접근성이 개선되고 쾌적한 환경으로 변모하여 사람들의 유입과 이용이 크게 늘면서 복원된 하천 주변 지역주민들의 커뮤니티 의식에 일정부분 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 보인다. 본 연구는 도시하천의 복원이 지역주민들의 커뮤니티 의식에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 규명하고자 수행되었으며, 이를 위해 최근 복원된 서울시 송파구 성내천을 방문한 방문객을 대상으로 설문조사를 시행하였다. 설문분석의 인자는 크게 성내천의 이용현황, 커뮤니티 의식(소속감, 연대의식, 정주의식), 복원사업 전후 비교(커뮤니티 의식변화, 지역효과 변화)등의 항목으로 구성되었다. 분석결과에 따르면 성내천 복원사업 후 일주일에 1~2회 이상 이용하는 방문객이 가장 많았다. 이들의 주된 방문목적은 '휴식 및 운동'이었고, '이웃이나 타인을 만나는 장소'로 이용하는 비율은 낮게 나타났으며, 성내천을 이용하는 주민들의 커뮤니티 의식은 대체로 높은 수준이었다. 방문빈도에 따라 세 집단으로 나누어 집단 간 커뮤니티 의식 차이를 분석한 결과, 집단 간 커뮤니티 의식 수준에 유의한 차이가 있었고, 특히 방문횟수가 많은 집단에서 커뮤니티 의식 수준이 높게 나타났다. 이 같은 결과로 볼 때 복원된 도시하천이 지역주민들의 적극적인 이용과 커뮤니티 활동을 활성화함으로써 지역에 대한 커뮤니티 의식을 고취하기 위해서는 주민들이 이용할 수 있는 적절한 시설과 프로그램 제공이 중요하다고 판단된다.

우리나라 기업들은 급변하는 환경을 극복하고 조직의 성과를 높이기 위하여 수직조직을 팀조직으로 전환하고 있다. 그러나 현행 팀제는 조직의 형식만 바꾸었을 뿐 실상은 과거 수직조직과 다름없다는 평가가 많다. 이러한 결과는 팀제의 성공에 필요한 핵심변수인 임파워먼트에 대한 검토와 실행이 되지 않고 있기 때문이다. 본 연구는 KBS 팀제에서 구성원들이 임파워먼트 되는데 걸림돌이 되는 여건이나 심리적 상태들을 파악하여 조직의 임파워먼트를 어떻게 실현할 것인가에 대한 정책적 대안을 제시하고자 한다. 횡단적 연구를 위하여 국내외 문헌조사를 하고 KBS 내에서 회수한 설문결과와 개인면담, 그리고 관찰의견을 종합하여 검토하였다. 설문지는 약 1,200부를 배포해 474부가 수거되어 이 중 460부를 SPSS 12.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 종단적 연구를 위하여 ‘KBS 팀제에 관한 사원의식 조사결과 보고서’ 의 내용과 본 설문조사 연구에서 공통적으로 비교분석할 수 있는 6개 부분을 추출하여 약 10여개윌간의 변화를 비교분석하였다. 분석결과 부정적인 응답자가 24.2%p가 줄어들었고 긍정적인 응답자는 1.29%p가 줄어들었다. 이는 부정적인 평가를 하던 구성원들이 긍정적인 평가자로 전환되어 팀제에 대한 이해가 확산된다는 측면에서 발전적이라 할 수 있으나 문제점에 대한 지속적 해결노력이 필요하다는 것을 시사한다 하겠다. 임파워먼트는 개인과 조직차원에서 생산성을 향상시키는 것으로 증명되었다. 팀 임파워먼트를 높이기 위해서는 경영진이 변혁적 리더십을 발휘해야 하고, 낮게 나타난 경영진과 조직구성원 사이에 신뢰가 무엇보다 먼저 향상되어야 할 것이다. 모든 본부와 직급에서 높게 나타난 업무기피자에 대한 부담이 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 전체 팀원에게 고른 업무분담이 되고 있지 못하다는 것을 뜻한다고 볼 수 있다. 그리고 구성원들은 회사의 평가보상시스템을 신뢰하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 팀의 규모와 업무배정에 좀 더 세심한 배려가 필요하고 평가보상 체계에 사각지대가 생기지 않도록 현행 평가제도를 보완하여야 할 것이다. 리더십은 조직의 특성이나 구성원들의 성향에 따라 각양각색이다. 조직에 맞는 KBS만의 변혁적 리더십, 그리고 팀별로 각각의 특성에 맞는 리더십을 개발하여 운영할 필요가 있다. 또한 팀제의 정착을 위하여 내부 교육과 훈련을 좀 더 강화할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

본 연구는 119구급대원의 인구사회학적특성, 건강관련행위특성, 직업관련 특성, 폭력경험, 소진 및 직무스트레스에 따른 직무만족도 수준을 알아보고, 폭력경험, 소진 및 직무스트레스와 직무만족도와의 관련성을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 조사대상은 전국 14개 소방서에 근무하고 있는 119구급대원 1,240명으로 하였으며, 조사는 2016년 3월 1일부터 4월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문조사에 의하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상자의 인구사회학적 및 건강관련행위특성에 따른 직무만족도는 연령이 낮을수록, 기혼군보다 미혼군에서, 규칙적인 운동을 한다는 군보다 하지 않는다는 군에서, 여가시간이 있다는 군보다 없다는 군에서, 주관적인 수면의 질이 좋다는 군보다 좋지 않다는 군에서, 주관적인 건강상태가 좋다는 군보다 좋지 않다는 군에서 유의하게 낮았다. 직업관련특성에 따른 직무만족도는 직위가 낮을수록, 근무경력이 짧을수록, 월수입이 낮을수록, 업무의 신체적 부담정도가 적당하다는 군보다 힘들다는 군에서, 업무에 만족한다는 군보다 만족하지 못한다는 군에서, 업무에 대한 적성이 맞는다는 군보다 맞지 않는다는 군에서, 직업전환의사가 없다는 군보다 있다는 군에서 유의하게 낮았다. 또한, 조사대상자의 직무만족도 점수는 폭력경험, 직무스트레스 및 소진이 높은 군일수록 유의하게 낮았으며, 직무만족도가 낮은 군에 속할 위험비는 폭력경험, 직무스트레스 및 소진이 낮은 군에 비해 높은 군으로 갈수록 유의하게 증가하였다. 위와 같은 연구결과는 119구급대원의 직무만족도는 인구사회학적 및 건강관련행위 특성이나 직업관련 특성뿐만 아니라 직무스트레스, 폭력경험 및 소진과도 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.
