Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for related researches on knowledge, attitude, and health belief related to hepatitis B and development of a preventive education program for the rise of its vaccination on college students of dental hygienics and dental laboratory technology majors. The questionnaires were distributed to a total of 252 students from April 26 to 30, 2018. The mean knowledge score of hepatitis B was 11.60 out of 20.0. The mean scores for their attitude and health belief on hepatitis B were 3.51 and 3.10 out of 4.0, respectively. Only 38.9% of the subjects were vaccinated and 53.6% of them were not educated. The factors affecting the vaccination were clinical training experience and prevention education. It is essential to provide healthcare education on knowledge, attitude, and health belief related to hepatitis B and to develop a convergent education program because the students may be manpower for healthcare institutions in the future.

본 연구는 B형간염에 대한 치위생과와 치기공과 대학생들의 지식, 태도, 건강신념과의 관련성 연구와 예방접종률 향상을 위한 예방 교육 프로그램 개발을 위한 기초자료에 도움을 주고자 조사하였다. 2018년 4월 26일부터 4월 30일까지 치위생과와 치기공과 대학생 252명을 대상으로 설문하여 분석하였다. B형간염에 대한 지식 점수는 20.0 만점에 평균 11.60이었고, 연구대상자의 B형간염 예방접종에 대한 태도 점수와 건강신념은 4.0점 만점에 각각 평균 3.51점과 3.10점으로 나타났다. B형 간염 예방접종률은 38.9%, B형간염 교육을 받지 못한 경우는 53.6%이었다. B형간염 예방접종에 영향을 미치는 요인은 임상실습경험 및 예방교육이었다. 연구대상 학생들은 미래에 보건의료기관에 근무할 인력이므로 B형간염에 대한 지식, 태도, 건강신념에 대한 보건교육과 융합적 교육 프로그램 개발이 반드시 필요할 것이다.
