Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the types of domestic safety accidents involving children and to verify the difference of safety knowledge according to variables of parents. Subjects include 226 parents who have 3-5 year old infants enrolled in kindergartens and day care centers in I-city, Jeollabuk-do. The study tools are modified and complemented questionnaire for the study purpose referred to the preceding research data and the literature. For the processing of collected data, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, and the Duncan post-test were utilized using the SPSS program. The results of this study are as follows: First, safety accidents occurred at the majority of homes which have infant children. On average, the occurrence frequency was 1.78 times per six months. The accidents involving infants occurred in the order of drop or slip, crash or impact, stricture or jamming, fall, stab or cut, burn, swallow or inhalation. Second, both parents had an average level of safety knowledge. There was a distinction in the areas of 'fall' and 'first aid' according the mother's age. In addition, stay-at-home mothers had the higher level of safety knowledge compared with working mothers in the areas of 'general safety knowledge' and 'fire'. There was a distinction in the area of 'fire' according to the father's age. Given these findings, safety training programs for parents to improve safety knowledge needs to be developed.

본 연구목적은 가정에서 발생한 유아의 안전사고 유형을 조사하고, 부모의 변인에 따른 안전지식의 차이를 검증하는 것이다. 연구대상은 전북 I시 유치원과 어린이집의 만3-5세 자녀를 둔 부모 총 226명이다. 연구도구는 선행연구 및 문헌을 참고하여 연구목적에 적절하게 수정 보완한 질문지를 사용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도분석, 기술통계, 일원변량분석 및 Duncan 사후 검증을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 첫째, 유아기 자녀를 둔 거의 대다수의 가정에서 안전사고가 발생하였고, 6개월 동안 평균 1.78회 정도 안전사고가 일어났다. 유아의 안전사고는 넘어지거나 미끄러지는 사고, 충돌 및 충격에 의한 사고, 협착이나 끼임 사고, 추락사고, 찔림과 베임 사고, 화상, 이물질 삼킴과 흡입사고 순으로 발생되었다. 둘째, 부모 모두 '평균 정도 수준'의 안전지식을 가지고 있었다. 어머니의 연령에 따라 '추락'과 '응급처치' 영역에서 안전지식에 차이가 있었다. 또한 전업주부인 어머니가 취업한 어머니보다 전반적인 안전지식과 '화상'에 대한 안전지식이 높았다. 아버지의 연령에 따라 '화재' 영역에서 안전지식의 차이가 있었다. 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 부모의 안전지식을 향상시킬 수 있는 부모안전교육 프로그램이 개발되고, 지속적으로 운영될 필요가 있다.
