본 연구는 결혼 이주여성의 생식건강 측면에 중요한 영향을 미치는 월경지식, 월경태도 및 피임지식 정도를 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 전라남도에 거주하는 결혼 이주여성 120명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지로 개별 면접을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 연구결과, 대상자의 평균 나이는 27.8세, 배우자는 41.4세이며, 필리핀 국적이 가장 많았으며, 현재 생활에서 의사소통 문제의 어려움을 가장 많이 호소하였다. 여성생식건강과 관련된 월경지식은 7점 만점에 4.0점, 월경태도는 25점 만점에 18.5점, 그리고 피임지식은 10점 만점에 4.5점의 평균점수를 나타냈다. 월경지식은 국적, 현재 가장 어려운 점, 현재 생활의 만족도, 지각된 건강상태, 월경주기, 원하는 아이 수, 피임정보원 여부, 출산력에 따라 통계적인 유의한 차이가 있었고, 월경태도는 연령, 국적, 지각된 건강상태, 원하는 아이 수와 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 피임지식은 교육정도, 국적, 월경통 여부와 통계적 유의한 차이가 있었다. 변수들 간의 관계에서는 월경태도가 긍정적일수록 피임지식이 낮은 것으로 나왔다. 따라서 결혼 이주여성의 산과적 건강 측면을 고려한 다차원 건강교육 프로그램을 개발하여 결혼 이주여성의 건강을 향상시키고 바람직한 가족계획을 할 수 있도록 중재가 필요하다.

This study was performed to compare the transcultural differences on perimenstrual discomforts, menstrual attitudes and sex role acceptance between Korean and American college students. The subjects, 2557 nursing students were selected from 13 universities all around Korea, and 4 universities in the eastern, western, and middle areas of the United States. The data were collected using the MDQ (Menstrual Distress Questionnaire by Moos), the MAQ(Menstrual Attitude Questionnaire), and the Sex Role Acceptance Scale, the subjects answered the MDQ for three points (premenstrual, menstrual, intermenstrual based on their recollections) between July, 1996 and April, 1997. The findings are as follows : 1. There were significant differences in the age of menarche, duration of menstruation, and menstrual cycle between the Koreans and the Americans. 2. As for sex role acceptance, Americans more frequently denied the traditional female role than did Koreans. 3. There were significant differences between the two groups on five categories of menstrual attitude (menstruation is a phenomena that weakens women physically and psychologically, menstruation is a bothersome phenomena, menstruation is a natural phenomena, menstruation onset is a predictable phenomena, and menstruation is a phenomena that does not influence womens' behaviors non is expected to). 4. For the menstrual discomfort scores, there were significant differences between the two groups on all six categories of the MDQ(pain, attention deficit, behavioral changes, AMS response, water retention, and negative emotion) for the three points (premenstrual, menstrual, intermenstrual period). 5. The most common complaints for the Korean women were pain during the perimenstrual period and fatigue during the intermenstrual period. In contrast, for the Americans the most common complaint was negative emotions during the perimenstrual period, but less pain than the Koreans, and a similarity to Koreans during the intermenstrual period. 6. Regularity of the menstrual cycle was positively correlated with age of menarche, menstrual cycle, and duration of menstruation. 7 For the interrelationship between of Perimenstrual discomforts, menstrual attitudes, and sex role acceptance, there were significant correlations for both group as follows : First, the MA category "menstruation is a bothering phenomena" was negatively correlated with sex role acceptance, second, the MA category "menstruation is a phenomena that weakens the women physically and psychologically" was positively correlated with the MA category "menstruation onset is a predictable phenomena."
