  • Objectives: In women, breast cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death. Screening tests are the basis for early diagnosis. In Iranian women, the mortality rate of breast cancer is high due to insufficient screening examinations and delayed visits for care. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the factors affecting breast self-examinations among Iranian women employed in medical careers. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 501 women working in the medical professions at Hamadan University of Medical Sciences in western Iran in 2018. The subjects were selected by stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a researcher-developed, self-report questionnaire that contained demographic information and questions based on protection motivation theory and social support theory. Descriptive data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 23 and model fitting with PLS version 2. Results: The mean age of the participants was $37.1{\pm}8.3years$, and most of the women (80.4%) were married. Most women had a bachelor's degree (67.5%). The findings of this study showed that the coping appraisal construct was a predictor of protection motivation (${\beta}=0.380$, p<0.05), and protection motivation (${\beta}=0.604$, p<0.05) was a predictor of breast self-examination behavior. Additionally, social support theory (${\beta}=0.202$, p<0.05) had a significant positive effect on breast self-examination behavior. Conclusions: The frequency of practicing self-examinations among women employees in the medical sector was low; considering the influence of social support as a factor promoting screening, it is necessary to pay attention to influential people in women's lives when designing educational interventions.

  • This study is performed to confirm the influencing factors of family health protection behaviors using the variables included in Pender's Family Promotion Model. 1. The subjects are 110 families in preschooler family developmental stage, respondents are children's mother or father. These families are almost all nuclear types(95%), function of families is healthy as much as 8.0 the mean FAPGAR score. The prevalence rate of family members' illness was 14.7% these last 3 months, and 21.1 % of families responded suffered from injury for last 2 years. 2. The practice rate of injury prevention behavior is below a half in supervision and modifying of their home and residential environments, especially controlling through collaborative community power. The more familiar function score is the better practicing rates of injury prevention behaviors. 3. The injury prevention behaviors correlate to family size, health status of family member, and children's congenital defects with statistical significance. Families' economic condition correlates also significantly to family health status, cognition of benefits of injury prevention, cognition of the importance of community collecting power. And the recognition of the benefits of injury prevention correlates the adaptive health concept, family norms about injury prevention, economic status. 4. Considering family health promotion model. the general influencing factor is only affected to family protective behavior, and other paths don't affect to family's behaviors. In simple regression, the family protective behavior model explains 27.8%(P=0.05), significant factors are family function status, family size, chronic illness of family members', mother's education level. father's age. 5. To define of familiar preventive behavior as a unit is very important, but it has the limitation to solve the difficulties of family studies going with the operationalized difficulties of health promotion concept.

  • 스마트폰의 보급과 모바일 네트워크 발달로 인해 소셜네트워크서비스(Social Network Service, SNS)는 급격한 성장세를 보이고 있다. 서로의 관심 분야를 공유함으로써 새로운 사회적 관계를 형성하고 소통의 장을 확대할 수 있다는 장점과 휴대의 용이성의 특징을 가진 스마트폰 보급과 맞물려 급격히 성장하고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 이용자들의 SNS영향요인들에 대해 파악하고 이들 요인이 자기효능감과 프라이버시 보호를 통해 개인정보행위에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 대한 인과관계를 실증 연구하고자 한다. 이를 위해 헬스커뮤니케이션 분야에서 개인의 질병을 인지하고 예방할 수 있는 행동을 예측하는 건강신념모델(HBM : Health Belief Model) 이론의 주요 변수들을 적용한 연구모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 연구모형을 실증적으로 검증하기 위해 SNS를 이용한 경험이 있는 충남 소재의 N대학과 지방소재 K대학의 대학생들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사를 통해 총 186부의 표본을 수집하였으며, 요인들 간의 관계를 분석하기 위해 경로분석을 실시하였다. 경로분석결과, 첫째, SNS상에서의 개인정보보호 행위의 주요 영향요인인 건강신념 모델의 모든 변인들 중 지각된 개연성, 지각된 심각성, 지각된 장애는 자기효능감과 부적인 관계를 보였고, 지각된 개연성, 지각된 이익, 지각된 장애는 프라이버시보호에 부적인 관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 지각된 심각성은 프라이버시보호와 정적인 관계를 보였고, 지각된 이익과 자기효능감 역시 정적인 관계를 보였다. 둘째, 매개변수인 자기효능감은 프라이버시보호와 정적인 관계를 보였지만 개인정보보호행위와는 부적인 관계를 보였다. 마지막으로 프라이버시보호는 개인정보보호행위와 정적인 관계를 보였다. 이러한 연구 결과를 통해 기존의 개인정보 위협 기술을 활용한 개인정보보호 연구와는 달리 예방에 대한 특성을 반영한 이론적 모델을 제시함으로써 향후 SNS상에서의 개인정보보호행위를 예측할 수 있는 설명을 제시할 수 있는 이론적 실무적 기반이 될 것이다.

  • Background: Skin cancer is a global health problem that can be prevented by protective behavior promoted by nurses. In Turkey, only few studies have examined current knowledge of nurses related to skin cancer and to reveal their attitudes towards sun exposure and current protective behavior. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed from March 11 to May 30, 2013 with a study sample of 310 nurses working in two state hospitals located in Karab$\ddot{u}$k and Safranbolu. Results: Mean age of the nurses was $30.3{\pm}6.89$ years and 96.1% of them had graduated with a Bachelor degree. The participants were predominantly female (n=284). Knowledge level about skin cancer was significantly higher for females compared to males. Conclusions: Nurses do not have sufficient knowledge about skin cancer and are not adequately protecting themselves from ultraviolet light, the primary risk factor for skin cancer. While they demonstrated a responsible attitude towards avoiding sunburn and the need for adequate sun protection, they do not fully appreciate the extent to which the sun can cause skin cancer and that they lack full understanding about the need to protect the skin from burning and to avoid long term sun exposure in Turkey.

  • Objectives: Unprotected leisure time exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun or artificial tanning beds is the most important environmental risk factor for melanoma, a malignant skin cancer with increasing incidences over the past decades. The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of skin health information provided by several sources and different publishing issues on knowledge, risk perception, and sun protective behavior of sunbathers. Methods: A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among Austrian residents (n=563) spending leisure time outdoors in August 2010. Results: Print media, television, and family were perceived as the most relevant sources of information on skin health, whereas the source physician was only ranked as fourth important source. Compared to other sources, information provided by doctors positively influenced participants' knowledge on skin risk and sun protective behavior resulting in higher scores in the knowledge test (p=0.009), higher risk perception (p<0.001), and more sun protection (p<0.001). Regarding gender differences, internet was more often used by males as health information source, whereas females were more familiar with printed information material in general. Conclusions: The results of this survey put emphasis on the demand for information provided by medical professionals in order to attain effective, long-lasting promotion of photoprotective habits.
