Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of stages of adoption in stomach cancer screening and elucidate differences among stages. Methods: A randomly selected sample of 712 Korean males and females aged 40 years or over were interviewed. Stomach cancer screening intention and behavior, sociodemographic characteristics, beliefs, self-efficacy and reinforcing characteristics were assessed. Results: The majority of participants were not on-schedule screening(unaware 3.2%, unengaged 20.8%, deciding about acting 24.0%, decided not to act 9.6%, decided to act 14.5%, acting 9.7%, maintenance 18.3%). Perceived susceptibility, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, other cancer screening experiences were significantly associated with higher compared to lower Precaution Adoption Process Model(PAPM) stages. Conclusions: This study appears to be applicable of the Precaution Adoption Process Model to understanding stomach cancer screening behavior. Our results suggest that it is needed to develop the tailored message for adherence of stomach cancer screening.

본 연구는 예방책 채택과정 모형에 근거하여 20세 이상 50세 미만 간호사와 일반여성의 유방암검진 변화단계를 파악하고, 유방암검진 변화단계에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하기 위함이다. 20세 이상 50세 미만 간호사 및 여성 158명을 대상으로 연구를 시행하였다. 간호사와 일반여성의 유방암검진 변화단계에 따른 행동계기 요인 및 유방암검진 신념을 살펴본 결과 행동계기 요인은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었고, 유방암검진 신념은 5단계인 행동결정 단계에서 인지된 장애가 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 유방암검진 행동 변화를 유도하기 위해서는 주변인을 통한 암검진 권유 및 단계를 고려한 차별화된 전략으로 개개인에게 접근하는 것이 필요하며, 유방암에 대한 인지된 심각성을 높이는 전략을 개발 및 적용해야 할 것이다.

Objectives: This study aims to assess the stages of individual readiness to take the cancer screening test and to identify factors relating to the progress of their readiness to take the test. Methods: We analyzed the data acquired from our 'Cancer Screening Behavior among Korean Adults' Survey' in 2003. 1,057 participants' stages of readiness to take the cancer screening test were classified through the Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM). Their knowledge, beliefs and other factors related to cancer screening were examined at each PAPM stage through the Health Belief Model (HBM), and the various PAPM stages were compared with each other to identify factors likely to determine progress between stages. Results: The distribution of the PAPM stages of readiness for cancer screening was as follows: 18.9% were unaware; 9.7% were unengaged; 29.8% were deciding to take the test; 1.5% decided not to take the test; 11.6% decided to take the test, while 28.6% had taken the test. The factors likely to determine progress from one to another stage were 'Knowledge', 'Perceived susceptibility', 'Perceived benefits', 'Perceived barriers' and 'Family member's experience of cancer screening'. Conclusions: This study can be used to develop health promotion programs that enhance cancer screening behavior in Korea.

Background: A considerable amount of research has shown that knowledge and appropriate awareness are essential for encouraging positive behaviors and promoting health. In Korea, the roles that behavioral changes play in the prevention of cancer have been an important issue since the introduction of the 10 codes for cancer prevention in 2006. Thus, the present study investigated the associations of tobacco-related knowledge with awareness and attitudes towards positive smoking-cessation behaviors. Methods: The present study analyzed data from the 2010 national questionnaire survey (n = 1,006). This study evaluated sociodemographic characteristics, smoking status, self-rated health status, health-related interests, and the accuracy of 12 tobacco-related statements to determine knowledge level and to investigate its impact on awareness and behaviors related to smoking. These parameters were examined and staged using the Precaution Adoption Process Model. Results: A higher level of tobacco-related knowledge was significantly associated with a positive attitude towards smoking cessation (5-8 correct answers: odds ratio [OR], 2.53; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.57-4.08; ${\geq}9$ correct answers: OR, 3.90; 95% CI, 2.22-6.82; reference: ${\leq}4$ correct answers). Interestingly, among current smokers, only those who correctly responded to ${\geq}9$ of 12 tobacco-related statements were significantly associated with a positive attitude towards smoking cessation. Conclusion: This study found that having a higher level of tobacco-related knowledge had a significant impact on positive attitudes towards smoking cessation. This suggests that there is a need to disseminate appropriate knowledge to the general population to encourage positive attitudes and promote healthful behaviors in terms of smoking.

Background: It has been proven that an individuals health behavior is determined through a series of processes. This study aimed to assess the stages of adoption of breast cancer screening, and to identify the factors relating to progress through these stages. Materials and Methods: There were 202 female participants aged 20-59 years who were living in Chungbuk, South Korea. They were informed of the study purpose and agreed to participate. Data were collected from October 2010 to January 2011 by assessing the breast cancer screening stage, health beliefs, socio-demographic factors, and other facilitating factors. The participant current stage of adoption of breast cancer screening was classified using the Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM), and the various PAPM stages were compared with each other to identify factors likely to determine progress between stages. The data were analyzed using the ${\chi}^2$-test, ANOVA, Duncan test, and multiple logistic regression. Results: Approximately half of all participants were not on-schedule for breast self-examination and mammography (unaware, 9.4% and 11.4%, unengaged, 8.4% and 5.0%, undecided, 20.3% and 17.8%, decided not to act, 1.5% and 1.0%, decided to act, 13.4% and 15.3%, respectively). The factors likely to determine the progress from one stage to another were age, marital status, exposure to media information about breast cancer, self-efficacy, and perceived severity. Conclusions: These results suggest that it is necessary to develop a tailored message for breast cancer screening behavior.

Objectives: To identify the factors associated with the intention to undergo mammography among Korean women without a prior screening experience. Methods: Among 1,039 women of the general population, we selected 145 women (mean age: 54.2 years, age range : 40-78 years) without any prior experience with mammography. They were recruited for the 'Cancer Information Needs Assessment Survey' by using the method of random multi-stage cluster sampling. Data on the socio-demographic characteristics, intention to undergo mammography based on the Precaution Adoption Process Model, level of self belief and self efficacy for breast cancer screening, motivation for decision to undergo breast cancer screening were obtained by conducting a household survey. Results: Of the study subjects, 49.7% were classified as "unengaged" and "decided not to act" regarding breast cancer screening. Women with the intention to undergo mammography were more likely to be younger (OR 0.11, 95%CI 0.04-0.36), to have been recommended to undergo screening by others (OR 3.27, 95%CI 1.36-7.87), to have a high level of perceived sensitivity (OR 3.15, 95%CI 1.27-7.82), and to have a high level of self efficacy (OR 1.09, 95%CI 0.97-1.23). Exposure to campaigns and information regarding breast cancer screening, whether cancer patients are or not in around, perceived severity, perceived benefit, and perceived cost were factors that were not significantly associated with the intention to undergo mammography. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop tailored intervention strategies for women who have never undergone breast cancer screening on the basis of their demographic characteristics and factors that positively influence the intention to undergo mammography.

본 연구는 한국 대학생의 건강행위를 측정할 수 있는 도구를 개발하고 평가하는 데 목적을 두고 있으며, 보호동기이론(Rogers, 1975)과 예방채택과정 모형(Weinstein, 1988)을 개념적 기틀로 사용하였다. 예비문항은 개별면담과 문헌고찰을 통해 추출하였으며, 내용타당도 검정과 문항 이해도 평가를 거친 후 CVI가 .8이상인 행위문항 55개, 인식문항 24개를 선정하고, 60명의 남녀 대학생들에게 사전조사를 실시하였다. 사전조사 후 타당도와 신뢰도 검정을 통해 행위문항 33개와 인식문항 24개로 본조사를 위한 문항을 확정하였다. 본조사 설문지는 3개 대학에 재학 중인 남녀 대학생 400명에게 배포되었고, 최종 373부를 자료로 수집하였다. 자료의 통계처리 결과로는 구성타당도를 위한 문항간의 상관관계와 요인간 상관관계는 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 탐색적 요인 분석에서는 약물복용관리, 위해행동줄이기, 스트레스대처, 몸을 잘 보살피기, 영양관리의 다섯 요인으로 구분된 설명변량이 54.498%였다. 집단 간 비교를 보면 건강행위의 의도를 가진 집단과 그렇지 않은 집단 간의 행위 점수가 유의한 차이를 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 내적 일관성 신뢰도는 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 값이 .708-.810, 반분신뢰도는 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 값이 .702~.789로 적합하였다. 본조사 때 수집된 설문지 문항들의 신뢰도와 타당도를 검정하여 결과적으로 최종도구의 문항은 27문항으로 확정되었다.
