Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare the change of Well-Dying awareness and decision of university student before and after taking the course of death study. A questionnaire survey was conducted for university students 93 before education, 117 after education who participated in the Death Studies related lectures at Daejeon Metropolitan City for 15 weeks from August to December 2016. The general characteristics of survey are gender, age. grade, major, marriage condition, religion, family member living together and health status. Four items on the perception aspect of death, five items on the aspect of acceptance of death, seven items of death decision and twelve items for death education's interest and importance were configured as a reference scale. The statistical method carried out the chi-square test, the independent sample t-test, and the decision tree analysis. Based on the decision tree, At the time of preparation for death(cancer patient, terminal patient, etc.) and the elderly(65 years old or older), the education transition rate was 66.7%. But After education, 65.3% of the respondents were in adult, middle and high school, under elementary school, university, and graduate school, which showed a significant difference. Therefore we are looking for death education's effectiveness and setting directions for education's period and contents. the negative viewpoints and worries about the implementation of death education at elementary, middle and high schools and universities are resolved and the death education will positively affect the change of attitude of students.

본 연구는 대학생들이 죽음학 강좌 수강 이전과 이후 웰다잉 인식과 결정이 어떻게 변화되었는가를 비교 연구하고자 한다. 대전광역시 소재 일개 대학교에서 죽음학 관련 교양강좌를 2016년 8월부터 12월까지 15주 동안 수강한 대학생 교육 전 93명, 교육 후 117명 대상으로 연구 참여 희망자에 한해 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문구성은 일반적인 특성은 성별, 연령, 학년, 전공, 결혼상태, 종교, 가족 동거여부, 건강상태 8항목이었다. 죽음의 인식 측면에 관한 4항목, 죽음의 수용 측면 5항목, 죽음의 결정 측면 7항목, 죽음 교육의 관심도와 중요도 12항목을 리커트 척도로 구성하였다. 통계 검정법으로는 카이제곱검정, 독립표본 t-검정, 의사결정나무 분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과를 의사결정나무 토대로 종합해보면, 죽음 준비 시기가 죽음에 직면한 시기(암환자, 말기환자 등)와 노인(65세 이상)에서 교육 전이 66.7%로 나타났으나, 교육 후에는 성인과 중 고등학교, 초등학교 이하, 대학교, 대학원에서 교육 후가 65.3%로 나타났으며 이는 유의한 차이를 보였다. 따라서 죽음교육의 효과성과 죽음교육의 시기와 내용 등을 어떻게 구체화 시킬 것인가에 대한 방향 제시를 할 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 초 중 고등학교, 대학교에서의 죽음교육 실시에 대한 부정적인 시각과 우려를 해소하고 죽음 교육이 학생들의 삶에 태도 변화에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 것으로 사료된다.
