본 연구는 미취학 어린이를 대상으로 손씻기 교육 방법에 따른 미생물학적 변화를 모니터링한 연구이다. 연구는 3세에서 5세까지의 서울시 어린이집 어린이 10명을 대상으로 수행하였다. 미생물 분석은 손씻기 교육 전, 1주간 동영상 교육실시 후, 1주간 동영상 교육 및 손씻기 실습 교육병행 후로 분류하였다. 손씻기 교육 전 어린이들의 손에서는 일반세균, 진균, 대장균군 및 황색포도상구균이 검출되었다. 2주간 손씻기 동영상 교육과 실습교육을 연속적으로 실시한 결과 손씻기 교육에 따른 손 위생상태는 개선되었다. 결과 손씻기 교육은 취학 전 어린이를 대상으로 손씻기 교육을 반복적으로 수행할 경우 더욱 효과적일 것으로 생각된다. 특히 미취학 아동의 경우 평생 습관을 확립시키는 중요한 시기이므로, 언제, 어디서 손을 씻어야 하는가에 대한 구체적인 교육이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test hand hygiene behavior model of hospital nurses, based on theory of planned behavior. Methods: Data were collected from 253 nurses from four university hospitals for the period of December 2010 to January 2011. Data were analyzed using of SAS (ver.9.1). Fitness of the study model was identified with SAS PROC CALIS. Results: The overall fitness was $x^2$=57.81 (df=13, $p$ <.001), GFI=.99, AGFI=.99, CFI=.95, NFI=.93. The variance of actual implementation of hand hygiene by predictor variables was 11.0% and the variance of intention to hand hygiene was 53.5%. Variable that had a direct effect on hand hygiene behavior was intention. Perceived behavior control and attitude affected hand hygiene behavior indirectly. Control belief had a direct effect on perceived behavior control and had an indirect effect on intention and behavior. Behavioral belief had a direct effect on attitude and an indirect effect on intention and behavior. Conclusion: The study provides basic information for understanding nurses' hand hygiene behavior. Further testing of the model will indicate which variables can contribute to improved hand hygiene.

In this study one aspect of consumer behavior in household equipment utilization was investigated the pattern, frequency, rate of washer use and their relation to the following factors a) Washer related factors : extent of the presence of desired characteristics, the evaluation of washer's intrinsic features and related household facilities. b) Psycho-social factors : attitude of energy conservation, preference & ability to wash by hand, standard of washing of the respondent homemaker. c) Socio-demographic factors : age, education level and employment status of homemaker, house-hold income, the presence of children under seven years, size of family, the presence of a paid help. The subjects of this study were 286 homemakers with washer in Seoul. Analysis methods were used to fuequency, one-way ANOVA, Gamma test, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, t-test and multiple regression of SPSS program. The major findings are the following; 1) The pattern, frequency, rate of washe use appeared various in every household. 2) Extent of the presence of desired characteristics was very low and respondents evaluated their washer's intrinsic features moderate. 3) The pattern of washer use was affected by the evaluation of washer's intrinsic features, preference & ability to wash by hand, wife's employment and household income. The frequency of washer use was affected by family size and preference & ability to wash by hand. The rate of washer use was affected by extent of the presence of desired characteristics, the evaluation of washer's intrinsic features and preference & ability to wash by hand. Therefore, washing by hand is major substitute for washer. If more desired characteristics are added to washer, intrinsic features are improved, and maintenance costs are reduced or household income is raised, every houshold with washer will use washer more than washing by hand in washing ask so that it may gain more utility from washer.

청소년의 건강증진을 위한 보건교육 프로그램 중 손씻기에 대한 교육을 기획하는데 있어 기초자료를 제공하고자 2011년, 2012년, 2013년의 청소년건강행태온라인조사 원시자료를 이용하여, 중학생 및 고등학생의 손 씻기 실천 행태를 분석하였다. 자료 분석은 조사에 참여한 표본이 우리나라 청소년의 대표성을 갖도록 지정된 가중치를 적용하였으며, 자료는 SPSS 18.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도 분석 및 교차분석을 실시하였다. 우리나라 청소년의 손 씻기 실천 행태는 학교에서 식사하기 전 '전혀 씻지 않았다'로 응답한 학생수가 2011년도에 22,257명(29.4%), 2012년도 22,375명(30.5%), 2013년도 13.153(18.5%)명으로 다른 항목과 달리 계속적으로 주의깊게 관찰해야 하는 상태로 유지되었다. '학교에서 식사하기 전 전혀 씻지 않았다'는 항목에 대해 최근 3개년간의 추이를 확인한 결과 도시구분에서는 대도시와 중소도시가 군단위의 소도시 보다 유의하게 전혀 손을 씻지 않는 경향을 보였고, 학교유형에서는 여학교가 남녀 공학이나 남학교 보다 학교에서 식사 전 전혀 손을 씻지 않았다고 응답한 비율이 지난 3개년 간 계속해서 높은 경향을 보였다. 또한 학교구분에서는 중학교와 일반 고등학교가 특성화 고교보다, 성별에서는 여학생이 남학생보다, 학년 구분에서는 고학년으로 학년이 올라갈수록 '학교에서 식사 전 전혀 손을 씻지 않았다'고 응답한 학생이 유의하게 많은 것으로 나타났다. 이로써 손 씻기에 대한 학교 보건 교육 시 '식사 전 손 씻기'에 대한 교육을 특히 강조해야 하고, 학교에서 식사 전 '전혀 손을 씻지 않았다'고 응답한 비율이 높았던 인구학적 특성의 대상에 대해 보다 세심한 교육과 계속적인 관찰이 요구된다.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the connection between handwashing and toothbrushing, focusing on eating habits, and to verify whether eating habits can be used as an action cue for forming health habits. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study using secondary data from the 2019 community health survey. The participants included 229,099 adults aged 19 years or older, representative of the South Korean people. We employed two dependent variables: one was washing hands, and the other was brushing teeth. Eating habits was a major independent variable. Socioeconomic variables, such as age, gender, income, occupation, economic activity, education, and residence were adjusted as confounders. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to calculate adjusted odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals. Results: Most of the participants had good health behaviors: those who wash their hands and brush their teeth were each approximately 80%. Our finding indicated that brushing teeth and washing hands can be connected with eating habits. After adjusting for confounders, it was found that people who wash their hands before meals (compared to those who did not wash their hands before meals) had a higher toothbrushing rate after meals (i.e., socioeconomic status) (Adjusted Odds Ratio: 2.0, Confidence Intervals: 1.9 to 2.1). Conclusion: Those who practice either washing hands before meals or brushing teeth after meals were found to have a connection between washing hands and brushing teeth based on the results of practicing other health behaviors. This implies that eating habits can be connected as a behavior cue to promote health habits, such as washing hands before meals and brushing teeth after meals.

본 연구는 지각된 취약성(Perceived Susceptibility)에 있어서 왜곡현상이라고 할 수 있는 낙관적 편견 외에, 지각된 통제성(Percived Controllbility)에 있어서의 왜곡현상인 통제성 편향(Illusion of Control)을 포함하여 이들 두 변인이 COVID 19 관련 개인방역행동 및 사회적 거리두기 실천과 어떠한 영향관계를 가지는지 검증하고자 하였다.이를 위해 마크로밀 엠브레인의 온라인 패널을 활용하여 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 마스크 착용, 손씻기, 손소독제 사용 등의 개인방역행동을 독립변인으로 하여, 통제성 편향과 낙관적 편견에 어떻게 영향을 주는지를 분석하고, 아울러 낙관적 편견이 사회적 거리두기에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 회귀분석방법을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과, COVID 19 개인방역행동 중 손씻기 실천을 제외하고는 통제성 편향에 유의적인 영향을 주고 있지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 통제성 편향이 낙관적 편견에 영향을 주는 변인인 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 성별과 연령 등 인구학적 변인에 따라 개인방역행동이 통제성 편향에 주는 영향, 통제성 편향이 낙관적 편향에 주는 영향, 그리고 낙관적 편향이 사회적 거리두기에 주는 영향이 다르게 나타났다. 이는 향후 사회적 거리두기 촉진을 위한 개입 프로그램을 마련하는 과정에서 타겟별 차별화된 전략 및 메시지를 마련할 수 있는 근거를 제시해 줄 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

The U.S. government have concerned about food safety over the last two decades. The concept of the continuum, “from farm to table” was created to explore ways to prevent foodborne illnesses in all stages of food systems. On the continuum, consumers were recognized as the last line of defense to prevent foodborne illnesses, and much efforts were made to educate them safe food handling. This research was conducted to investigate infant formula handling and hand-washing behaviors of low-income families, especially parents and guardians of infants. The subject was selected from participants of the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children(WIC), a federal program for low-income families in the U.S. Stratified 200 local WIC offices were randomly selected based on the number of WIC participants in each state, and 20 randomly selected WIC participants from each selected office were asked to complete questionnaires. SPSS for Windows was used for statistical analyses including frequency, cross- tabulation, and chi-square analyses. A total of 87 WIC offices returned completed question-naires (N = 1,598), and 492 were parents/guardians of infants. Most respondents were white (51.3%), high school graduates (41.5%) , and participated in WIC>1 yew. Most respondents (80.9%) teamed about food safety from WIC, and only limited number of respondents (10.2%) used the Internet for food safety information. Most respondents stored prepared formula safely (94.6%) and discarded formula left in the bottle after feeding (84.5%) , but fewer used brushes to wash formula bottles (71.3%) and boiled water(15.2%) Chi-square analyses showed respondents in different race/ethnicity had different food handling behaviors. Respondents showed generally good hand-washing behaviors as 94.2% always washing hands after using restroom, 93.2% after touching meat items, and 87.l% before preparing foods. Fewer respondents, however, washed hands after changing baby diapers (77.0%) and touching pets (67.2%). Researchers concluded that WIC education on food safety was effective, as limited food safety education covered during WIC education were followed well (e.g., storing prepared formula and discarding leftover). However, results also indicated that there were many behaviors needed to be reinforced especially to overcome family tradition and culture on food handling behaviors. The WIC may serve as good food safety resources and education agents utilizing mandatory education sessions because the vast amount of food safety information on the Internet was not readily accessible for this low-Income Population.

In Intensive Care Units (ICUs), where severely ill patients are treated, importance of reducing Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) cannot be overstated. One of the simplest and most effective actions against HAI is proper hand hygiene (HH) behavior of Health Care Workers (HCWs). However, compliance varies across different cultures and different job types of HCWs (physicians, residents and nurses). This study aims to understand determinants of HH behavior by HCWs' job types in Korea. Qualitative analysis was performed based on Reasoned Action Approach style interviews with staff physicians, residents and nurses across 7 teaching hospitals. We found that all HCWs strongly believe HH is important in reducing HAI. There were, however, job type-specific HH behavior modifying factors; staff physicians stated feeling pressure to be HH behavior role model. Residents identified Quality Improvement team that measured compliance as a facilitator; a notable barrier for residents was senior physicians not washing their hands, because they were afraid of appearing impudent to their seniors. Nurses designated their chief nurse as a key referent. All participants mentioned heavy workload and lack of access to alcohol-based sanitizer as situational barriers, and sore and dry hand as deterrents to HH compliance.

The study surveyed 1,127 mothers whose children aged 3 to 5 went to 25 randomly selected kindergartens, which were located in Busan Metropolitan City and the adjacent Gimhae City, and analyzed the preventive health behaviors on their children and the condition of home health education on their children. As the compulsory kindergarten education will e to be implemented within 4 years, this study aimed to draw up the rudimentary material for health education at kindergartens. The study results are summed up as follows: 1. Mothers' awareness of health-related attitude and behavioral level for their children at kindergarten: 1) The general health condition of the children, which mothers are aware of, was that they were healthy on the whole. As their children becomes older, the income level of the parents is lower, and mothers have lower level of educational standard, the health condition of the children was found a little lower. 2) In terms of mothers' recognition of the practice level of preventive health behaviors, the items such as going to bed regularly, washing hands and feet well, and having meals regularly were high in the practice level, while exercise and tooth-brushing were not practiced well. 2. The condition of mothers' health education of their children: 1) It was found that washing hands and feet, restriction of overeating and preference for specific kinds of food, guidance on regular sleep and regular meal were practiced well among items of home health education targeting kindergarten children. 2) Mothers have obtained information on family health from printed matter such as newspaper or magazine rather than the visual media. 3) From the cross analysis of mothers' health education on children and children's health behaviors, as the standard of education of mothers was higher, so was the level of preventive health behaviors of children. 3. From the result of multi regression analysis of the factors influencing the preventive hygiene of kindergarten children, it was found that as the home health education level was higher, so was the health behavior of children. On the other hand, as the mothers were older, the health behavior of children became lower.
