Objectives: This study measured the extent of local legislators' support for tobacco control policies and identified the predictors of that. Methods: Local legislators, from 21 Gu in Seoul Metropolitan City, underwent a self-administrated questionaire during the 6-week period from December 1, 2004 to January 15, 2005. Multiple linear regression model was used to assess relationships between five groups of variables(political factors including political ideology, personal characteristics, tobacco experiences, tobacco knowledge, contact with local health officers) and support for tobacco control policies based on an 11-item scale. Results: The rates of support for 'penalizing merchants who sell cigarettes to minors' and 'instituting a law mandating that parents should not smoke in a car when children are present' were highest as 87.5% and 82.0% respectively, and those for 'increasing price of cigarettes' and 'regulating stores that sell cigarettes' were lowest as 52.2% and 51.7% respectively. Support was higher among local legislators who thought government had a duty to promote healthy life styles, knew second-hand smoke could cause lung cancer, knew tobacco caused more deaths than alcohol. Support among ex-smokers and nonsmokers was higher than current smokers. Conclusions: The findings indicate that local legislators who oppose tobacco control measures may not be opposed to tobacco control per se, but are more generally opposed to a government role in health promotion, Thus, Tobacco control advocates need to be more attentive to the way tobacco control issues are framed for particular legislators. Further, they could work to increase tobacco knowledge among local legislators.

본 연구는 지방교육자치에 관한 법률 전부개정법률안(대안)에 대한 국회의 표결에 있어 국회의원에 영향을 미친 요인은 무엇인지 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 지방교육자치에 관한 법률 전부개정법률안(대안)이 관심을 끄는 것은 교육감과 교육위원에 대한 직접 선거 및 교육위원회 시·도의회 상임위원회 전환 등을 주요 내용으로 하고 있기 때문이다. 또한 이 법안은 위원회 이름으로 발의된 법안이며 특정 정당 및 지역의 반대가 있었던 법안이 아님에도 이에 대한 수정안이 제출되었고, 국회에서 통과된 다른 법안과 달리 반대표가 상대적으로 많았기 때문이다. 이러한 이유로 의원들의 투표는 무엇에 영향을 받았는지 분석을 시도하였다. 투표행태 분석을 통해 법안의 통과에 있어 중요한 것은 교섭단체 간 합의며, 특히 국회 다수당의 선택이 매우 중요하다는 점을 알 수 있었다. 또한 분석을 통해 의정경험이 많은 의원과 비례대표 의원들은 교섭단체 간 합의된 법안에 좀 더 순응하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 전자투표제 실시 이후 학자들의 관심을 끌고 있는 의원들의 투표행태를 좀 더 구체적으로 이해할 수 있는 기회를 제공했다는 점에 의미가 있다고 하겠다.

This study was conducted to identify the factors that affect the output of health conters. An analystical model employed in this study was developed by modifying 'input-output model' and 'organizational behavior model'. Data were collected form two source; the 1995 report of thealth center which was submitted to the Ministry of Health and Welfare and a mail survey questionary of officers at health center, including 66 directors and 1,768 staffs of the health centers in southern region. The major findings are as follows: That analysis has identified the factors associated with dependent variables: medical services provided by the health center and health program performance(HPP). The number of primary medical facilities was negatively associated with health center performance while the number of staffs, job satisfaction, and professional background of health center directors were positively associated. These independent variables accounted for 40.1% of the variance of dependent variables. The variance of HPP was significantly explained by the number of health subcenter and primary health post, priority level of public health program by hief executive officers(CEOs) and legislator. A significant relationship was found between leadership types of health center directors and the performance of maternal and child health program. Considering these results, the authors suggested that the role in medical care service of health center in the should be rearranged at local level because medical care service of the health center is competing with primary medical facilities in the same region. It is also suggested that educational efforts be made to improve leadership of the health center directors and concern with public health program by the CEOs and legislators of local governments.
