The present study attempts to investigate the knowledge, belief, attitude and behavior of healthcare major students and non-healthcare counterparts concerning their oral hygiene. The purpose is to provide basic data for positive oral health activities to the students with non-healthcare major, who tend to have insufficient information on oral hygiene. A survey was conducted to 400 students in K college in Incheon from May 1-30, 2003. A total of 384 surveys were analyzed using the SPSS program Version 10.0. The result is as follows: 1. There was a statistically significant difference in the knowledge on oral hygiene between the healthcare(M=3.08) and non-healthcare(M=2.78) students(pE0.05). 2. As for the beliefs and attitudes toward oral health behaviors, 56.9% of the healthcare students and 60.6% of non-health care counterparts responded "moderate" to the question asking if they liked tooth-brushing. The reason they liked tooth-brushing were cleanliness(60.3% of healthcare and 71.9% of non-healthcare students). They didn't like brushing their teeth because they felt it was a nuisance(60.6% of healthcare and 54.5% of non-healthcare students). 90.6% of healthcare students and 90.1% of their non-healthcare counterparts said they wanted to keep their oral health intact. Most of the subjects seemed to acquire information on oral hygiene through mass media(62.2% of healthcare and 55.3% of non-healthcare students). The persons who give them oral health information are their friends or neighbors(26.8% of healthcare and 22.8% of non-healthcare students), and dental hygienists were the last in the list of the sources of information(3.4% of healthcare and 2.5% of non-healthcare students). 3. Their oral health behaviors were also considered, 64.4% of the healthcare students and 53.7% of the non-healthcare counterparts brush their teeth once or twice a day, 51.4% of the former brush their teeth for 2 minutes and 44.8% of the latter for 3 minutes. Some of them use oral health measures other than tooth-brushing(13.3% of healthcare and 14.3% of non-healthcare students). Not many of them used oral health products(6.6% of healthcare and 5.9% of non-healthcare), and the difference was statistically significant(pE0.05). The largest number of healthcare students brush their teeth right before going to bed(29.9%), while their counterparts do it after breakfast(25.8%)

본 연구는 남자 고등학생들의 구강건강신념에 따른 구강건강실천정도를 파악하여 구강건강에 대한 지식과 행동양식의 변화를 유도함으로써 바람직한 구강건강신념을 바탕으로 구강건강을 실천할 수 있도록 하는 정보를 제공하고자 2010년 5월 20일부터 6월 20일까지 전라북도에 위치한 3개의 고등학교 남학생 1, 2학년을 대상으로 편의표본추출법에 의한 자기기입식으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. SPSS 12.0 프로그램을 이용하여 수집된 자료의 통계분석을 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 구강건강신념정도는 '치과질환이 발생한 경우 치과치료를 빨리 받아야 한다고 생각한다'가 4.44점으로 가장 높았고, '치과치료에 대하여 다른 사람과 이야기 하는 시간이 많다'가 2.73점으로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 2. 일반적인 특성에 따른 구강건강신념에서 종교와 치과방문경험이 있는 경우가 없는 경우보다 구강건강신념이 높은 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 구강건강실천에서는 학년이 높을수록(p<0.01), 종교가 있는 경우가 없는 경우 보다 구강건강실천정도가 높은 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 3. 구강건강신념에 따른 구강건강실천정도에서 잇솔질이 3.65점으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, '잇솔질', '구강위생용품', '정기적인 방문', '식이조절', '교육 및 관심' 모두 구강건강신념이 높은 집단이 낮은 집단 보다 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05, p<0.001). 이상의 연구결과를 보면 구강건강신념과 구강건강실천은 상호 유의한 관련성이 있다고 볼수 있으므로, 본인의 구강건강을 스스로 책임지는 시기인 고등학생의 바람직한 구강건강신념과 구강건강실천향상을 위해 지속적이고 체계적인 학교구강보건교육 프로그램의 활성화가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Objectives : This study sought to identify the predisposing factors which influence the adolescent oral health enhancement behavior by analyzing controlling effects depending on the parents' oral health care behaviors in the relationship between the predisposing factors and adolescent behavior improvements which enhance oral health. Methods : A structured, self-administered questionnaire was given from July 6 through July 24, 2016. The collected data were analyzed with the SPSS 18.0 program. Results : Parents' oral health behaviors in terms of discipline and guidance showed a controlling effect in terms of importance (${\beta}$=.116) and benefits (${\beta}$=.133). In addition, the analysis showed that the parents' oral health care behavior had a controlling effect in terms of benefits (${\beta}$=.164) and susceptibility (${\beta}$=-.116). Conclusions : From the results of this study, the development of materials and education courses to lead to behavior changes are thought to be necessary in order to enhance the importance and benefits of the factors of oral health beliefs and to reduce psychological discomfort.

본 연구는 구강건강교육경험과 구강건강신념, 구강효능감, 구강위생용품사용 실천, 삶의 질과의 관련성을 규명하고자 경상남도 내에 거주하는 40·50대 184명을 최종 분석하였다. 그 결과 구강건강교육에 따른 구강효능감과 구강위생용품사용 실천에서 교육 경험이 있는 경우 구강효능감과 구강위생용품사용 실천, 삶의 질이 높았다. 구강건강신념과 구강효능감, 구강위생용품사용 실천, 삶의 질 간의 상관관계에서 구강건강신념 중 불안의 성향을 가진 민감성과 심각성이 높을 때 구강효능감과 삶의 질이 낮은 것을 볼 수 있었고, 중요성과 장애, 유익성이 높을 때는 구강효능감과 삶의 질이 높음을 볼 수 있었다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 중년의 구강건강관리를 위해서는 대상자별 맞춤 교육 프로그램을 개발하여 지속적이고 장기적인 반복 교육이 필요하며 추후 프로그램 개발을 통해 적용효과에 대한 연구가 필요할 것이다
