Osteoporosis is a major health problem in countries with aging populations, resulting in excess morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to investigate knowledge and practices about osteoporosis in adults and to identify some factors which were influenced to that. 56-item questionnaire was developed including five domains(general characteristics, osteoporosis-related characteristics, knowledge of risk factors, knowledge of prevetion and practices). Subjects of this study were 368 adult ranged from 30 to 59. Data were collected during the period from June 15 to July 10, 1998 by means of a structured questionnare. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Post Hoc, Pearson Correlation by SPSSWIN program. The results were as follows: 1. The mean knowledge score of risk factors for osteoporosis was 7.46(full score=15) and that of prevention of osteoporosis was 8,79(full score=12). 2. The mean practice score of osteoporosis was slightly higher than median value. 3. Women had better knowledge about osteoporosis risk factors and practiced more osteoporosis-prevention measures than men. Although the data demonstrated fairly good general knowledge about osteoporosis in the subjects, the older group(age 50-59), those at the highest risk of developing the disease, knew less about osteoporosis than the younger group(age 30-39) did. 4. The persons who had heard about osteoporosis and bone mineral density though mass media medical pratitioners and who didn't take any medicine for osteoporosis had better knowledge about osteoporosis and preventive measures. The practice score was significantly higer in the postmenopausal women and persons who were already diagnosed as osteoporosis patients, or who underwent bone mineral density measurements. 5. The relation between knowledge and practice was significant. In conclusion, there was a modest degree of general knowledge about osteoporosis and its consequences in adults. Further randomized studies are needed to evaluate the relationship between osteoporosis and risk factors. However, these results support the importance of education to prevent osteoporosis.

Background: Knowledge regarding risk factors and primary signs of oral cancer in the general population can help them to avoid risky behaviour and seek timely advice from a physician. The aim of this study was to survey adult knowledge about risk factors and signs of oral cancer in Shiraz Dental University. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study using an investigator-made questionnaire, 783 adults who were referred to Shiraz Dental University participated. Questionnaire data were analyzed by ANOVA and T-test. Results: The results showed that 32.3% of participants were aware of oral cancer and gained their knowledge from the media. The risk factors mentioned by these participants was as follows: sunlight 30.8%, hot and peppery food 40.7%, alcoholic drinks 47.4% and smoking 73.6% (there was significant relationship for drinking alcohol and gender, education and times of using dental service, p<0.05). They also mentioned the primary signs of oral cancer as follows: red patch without pain 27.8%, white patch without pain 13.5% and prolong scarring without pain 56.7% (there was significant relationship between these three signs and education and times of using dental service, p<0.05). The mean knowledge about the risk factors and signs of oral cancer were 1.94 from 5 with 1.14 standard deviation and 0.96 from 3 with 0.93 standard deviation. Conclusions: The observed low level of knowledge of people regarding both risk factors and signs of oral cancer emphasizes the need for more efforts to be made about the above mentioned issues by the media.

배경 : 후천성 면역 결핍증이 치명적인 질환으로 알려진 이후 이에 대한 원인규명과 치료방법 그리고 전염을 막기 위한 노력과 연구들이 현재까지 계속 진행되고 있지만, 이 질환에 대한 치료방법이나 백신 개발은 아직까지 요원한 실정이다. 따라서 가장 좋은 치료는 예방이며, 올바른 예방법을 숙지하여 행하면 거의 100% 예방이 가능하다. 이에 저자 등은 매춘부와 성경험이 있는 고위험군과 매춘부와 성경험이 없는 저위험과의 지식과 태도 비교를 통해 효과적인 예방교육을 제시하고자 한다. 방법 : 2000년 1월 1일부터 6월 30일까지 현재 미혼인 군인과 대학생 516명을 대상으로 설문지를 통해 조사하였다. 응답된 자료를 고위험군과 저위험군 사이에서의 인구통계학적인 특징, 지식, 태도를 chi-square test를 가지고 비교 분석하였다. 또 두 군간의 지식 점수 비교는 one-way ANOVA test를 가지고 비교 분석하였다. 결과 : 미혼 남성 516명중 고위험군은 256명(49.6%), 저위험군은 260명(50.4%)이었으며, 후천성 면역 결핍증에 대해서 처음으로 듣는 시기는 두 집단 다 중학교 때가 제일 많은 것으로 나왔다. 이 질환에 대해 지식을 얻게 되는 주된 경로는 텔레비젼 방송으로 고위험군은 124명(48.4%), 저위험군은 167명(64.2%)로 나왔다(P=0.002). 지적 부분에서는 평균 점수가 총 20개 문항 중 고위험군은 $13.9{\pm}1.9$, 저위험군은 $14.1{\pm}1.8$이었고, 두 군간의 통계학적인 차이는 없었다(P=0.191). 저위험군이 고위험군보다 통계학적으로 의미가 있는 경우는 20개 항목 중 2개 항목으로 수혈을 통해 전염된다는 항목(P=0.014)과 모기를 통해 후천성 면역 결핍증 바이러스 균이 전염될 수 있다는 항목(P=0.009)이었다. 태도 부분에서는 환자를 다른 사람과 격리시켜야 된다는 항목에서만 통계학적으로 고위험군에서 저위험군보다 의미있게 높게 나왔다(P=0.029). 결론 : 본 연구에서 고위험군과 저위험군 모두 텔레비젼을 통해서 지식을 주로 습득하고, 지식과 태도 부분에서 일부분을 제외하곤 두 군간의 통계학적인 차이는 없었지만 지식부분은 2개 항목, 태도 부분은 1개 항목에서 저위험군이 고위험군보다 통계학적으로 높게 나왔다. 이는 지식이 높을수록 후천성 면역 결핍증에 노출 될 가능성을 낮출 수 있음을 시사하며, 감염될 가능성이 낮은 사람이 태도도 더 긍정적임을 알 수 있다.

This study investigated the determinants of Tap Water consumption patterns. Socio-demographic variables(gender, family income, education level, residual area) and consumer attitude knowledge(confidence, knowledge, problem experience, risk perception and aesthetic satisfaction)were included in the analysis. Three hundred fifty-nine teachers were participated in this study. ANOVA(Scheffe test), t-test, regression and logistic regression were conducted. The results of this study are as follows: 1. Tap water was consumed by only 1.7%, boiled water prior to drinking by 37.9%, water filtered by 39.8% and bottled water by 19.0%. 2. Consumer attitude knowledge was affected by socio-demographic variables. That is, aesthetic satisfaction was affected by age, risk perception by gender and educational level, confidence by educational level, knowledge by gender and age, and problem experience by age. 3. Logistic regression analysis indicated that age, confidence and aesthetic satisfaction were the determinants of bottled water or filtered water choice. However, risk perception was not a significant determinant. This suggests alternatives to tap water is related to non-risk, or non-safety factors.

The purpose of this study was to measure the effects of trust, knowledge, optimism, risk and benefits on consumer attitudes toward genetically modified foods. A total of 326 questionnaires were completed. Moderated regression analysis was used to measure the relationships among the variables. The analysis results for the data indicated a good model fit in Model 2 rather than Model 1, in which the direct effects of trust, optimism and benefits had statistically significant direct effects on the respondents' attitudes toward genetically modified foods, while the direct effects of knowledge and risk were not statistically significant. As expected, the interaction term of risk and benefit had a significant effect on consumer attitude. Moreover, the effect of risk on consumer's attitude toward genetically modified foods was statistically significant at all levels of benefit, except at the lower benefit level. Finally, the results of this study indicated that genetically modified food developers and marketers should attach importance to the interaction effect of benefits to understand the elements of market demand and customer loyalty.
