The purpose of this study was intended to identify the difference of two sample groups for the student's awareness on the environment after ecological education in elementary school. For the elementary school participated in this study, we studied how the education influences the student's awareness on the environment using survey. The result showed that even though various kinds of environmental education programs were given to the participated group, there was no significance compared with the other group who did not participate. This was probably because the students not participated in the education program were frequently exposed to other similar types of environmental activities. In terms of the change of the student's awareness on the environment and their desire for continuing environmental education in future, 95.8% of students who participated in the survey showed positive answers. Considering the current environmental education that has mostly been made in class and the lack of variety of the education program, various types of environmental education programs are required, so schools, education system, and social groups should work together to compensate for the lack of the in-class education. In addition, the change of students awareness and altitude toward the environment proved the positive effect of the environmental program and showed the appropriateness increasing the opportunity for the environmental education.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the knowledge, awareness and performance of COVID-19 infection control among physical therapists and to identify the impact factors on performance Methods: Data were collected from March 16th to March 24th in 2022 from the physical therapist's in Busan. Data analysis was conducted on 170 surveys, after excluding 27 surveys that were found to be unsuitable for data analysis. Results: When correlating the study variables, knowledge and awareness were found to have a positive, meaningful correlation with performance. Performance of COVID-19 personal infection control regression analysis showed that the working department (clinic and long-term care hospital), clinical experience, the more knowledgeable, the awareness (personal), and the more clinical experience had significant positive impacts on the performance of COVID-19 infection control. Performance of COVID-19 treatment room infection control regression analysis showed that the working department (long-term care hospital), educational experience, the awareness (treatment room) had significant positive impacts on the performance of COVID-19 infection control Conclusion: The results of this study may be used as basic data for educating physical therapist's working at the COVID-19 response department. This study suggests that physical therapist's need educational programs to improve their knowledge and awareness and performance of infection control against infectious diseases such as COVID-19. Differentiated physical therapists practice education curricula must be developed and provided after understanding the varying characteristic of physical therapist's with different levels of work experience.

목적 : 본 연구는 국내 작업치료사들의 작업기반 중재에 대한 인식도와 실행현황을 알아보고 이를 작업기반 중재 관련 기초자료로 사용하고자 시행하였다. 연구방법 : 국내 임상작업치료사 300명을 편의 표집하여 구조화된 293부의 설문지를 배포하였고 응답한 288부의 설문지를 분석하였다. 결과 : 작업기반 중재에 대한 인식도는 평균 5.7점으로 남자가 여자보다, 연령과 임상경력이 많을수록 인식도가 높았으나 성별을 제외하고는 유의하지 않았다. 작업기반 중재를 접하게 된 계기는 전공수업, 논문 및 세미나, 동료의 소개 및 기타 등이었으며 연령과 학력, 기관소재지, 임상경력에 따라 관련성에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 작업기반 중재를 임상에서 사용한다고 응답한 인원은 152명(52.8%)으로 사용하지 않는 경우보다 많았다. 사용여부는 근무지를 제외하고 성별, 연령, 임상경력, 학력에 따른 관련성의 차이가 모두 유의미하지 않았다. 작업치료 전체 과정 중 상담, 중재, 목표설정, 평가와 문서화 순으로 작업기반 중재를 사용하는 빈도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 작업기반 중재를 사용하는 목적은 클라이언트의 삶에서 의미있는 작업을 찾기, 클라이언트의 가정이나 지역사회활동에 참여를 촉진, 클라이언트 기능회복을 위한 치료 등의 순으로 나타났다. 작업기반 작업치료를 시행하는 동안 어려움을 느꼈던 부분은 클라이언트 및 보호자의 작업에 대한 이해 부족이 가장 많았고 작업치료실 환경의 제약 및 도구의 부족, 관련 지식 및 활용방법 이해의 부족, 치료 준비 시간 부족, 치료비/보험 수가 적용의 어려움 등의 순으로 높은 응답을 보였다. 결론 : 작업기반 중재의 인식도와 실행 정도는 중간 수준으로 나타났으며 교육수준 및 치료환경과 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 작업기반 중재를 현재보다 활성화하기 위한 교육의 시행과 임상 환경의 조성을 위해 제도적, 학술적 논의와 지원이 선행되어야 할 것이다.

Objectives: The study investigated health professionals working in the metropolitan area and Jeolla-bukdo, South Korea, from April 30 to May 17, 2017 to understand their views on the issue of including dental hygienists in the scope of medical personnel of South Korea. Methods:A total of 270 surveys were analyzed in this study. The survey consists of 5 questions on general issues; 10 on the awareness of present work of dental hygienist; and 1 on opposition or approval about including dental hygienist in medical personnel. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS for Windows 18.0, as well as frequency analysis, cross analysis and logistic regression analysis. Statistical significance level (${\alpha}$) is 0.05. Results: 1. Broken down by gender, male subjects showed more oppositions against including dental hygienists in the category of medical personnel while female subjects showed more favorable opinions (p<0.05). In terms of academic background, those who had graduated from graduate school or higher showed a higher propensity for opposition while those who had graduated from a 3-year college showed a higher tendency for approval on the idea (p<0.05), In terms of occupational type, health professionals showed more opposing views whereas medical technologists showed more approvals than others (p<0.001). 2. With respect to the awareness of work specialty and proficiency of dental hygienist according to general characteristics, the higher the age, the higher the awareness level was. In terms of the occupational type, medical technologists were found to have higher awareness level than health professionals (p<0.001). 3. With respect to the relationship between general characteristics and view on including dental hygienists in medical personnel, the occupational type of health professional was found to have 6.33 times more oppositions than medical technologists. When the awareness level on proficiency of dental hygienist was low, opposition was 6.52 times more frequent (p<0.05). Conclusions: Based on the findings above, the inclusion of dental hygienists in medical personnel seems necessary in properly establishing the specialty and role of dental hygienist in the dentist medical environment of the country in order to enhance national oral health related preventive dental service and expand the demand. To this end, it is necessary to provide nationwide promotion, work to change the awareness of health professionals in other occupational types, and facilitate public promotion for legal ground establishment.

본 연구는 요양병원 간병사의 낙상예방인지도에 미치는 영향요인을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료수집기간은 2014년 7월 1일부터 8월 31일까지였다. D광역시와 N시에 소재하는 7개 요양병원의 간병사를 대상으로 편의 표집 하였다. 수집된 자료 215부 중 200부를 분석에 이용하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 요양병원 간병사의 학력, 요양보호사 자격증 유무, 근무경력과 낙상관련 교육시간에 따른 낙상예방인지도에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 낙상예방건강신념 중 지각된유익성, 지각된장애성, 지각된민감성과 낙상예방효능감은 낙상예방인지도와 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 셋째, 요양병원 간병사에게 영향을 주는 개인적 특성을 통제한 상태에서 위계적 회귀분석한 결과, 정적영향요인은 지각된유익성, 낙상예방효능감, 지각된민감성, 부적영향요인은 근무경력으로 나타났으며, 이들 변수의 낙상예상인지도에 대한 설명력은 31.7%였다. 이러한 결과로 요양병원 간병사의 낙상예방인지도를 증가시키기 위해 간병사의 근무경력에 따른 낙상예방효능감과 건강신념 중 지각된 유익성과 지각된 민감성을 높일 수 있는 프로그램을 적극 모색해야할 것이다.

본 연구는 여성 근로자의 일 가정양립지원제도에 대한 인식과 활용 간의 관계성 및 이용실태를 분석하였다. 연구결과 현 직장에서 시행 비중이 높으며 가장 많이 이용한 일 가정양립지원제도는 육아휴직제-시차출퇴근제-육아기 근로시간단축제 순이었다. 일 가정양립지원제도 인지도(p<.001)와 이용 만족도(p<.05)는 일 가정양립지원제도 효과성 인식에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 향후 일 가정양립지원제도 이용의도에 대한 일 가정양립지원제도 인지도 및 이용 만족도의 영향은 유의하지 않았으나 가족적 지지(배우자, 부모, 시부모)가 한계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 여성 근로자의 일 가정양립지원제도에 대한 인식과 활용 간의 영향관계를 분석함으로써 정책의 효과성을 파악하고, 가족적 차원까지 고려대상을 넓힌 데에 연구의 의의가 있다.
