D 보건대학 치위생과 학생들의 스켈링 실습시 경험하는 스트레스 요인에 관한 연구 (1998)

This study is to provide efficient practical training and its more improved way in the future by figuring out the causes of stress experienced by students majoring dental hygiene under their practical training an scaling. The study has been conducted from September 1 to September 30, 1997 marking 2nd and 3rd year of students of the department of dental hygiene, D Health College an object of this study to examine and find out the causes of stress from their experiences at the practical training an scaling in 4 factors such as environment, personal relations, roles and scaling duty. The results are as follow: 1. The degree of stress experienced from the practical scaling training was high with 3.4% in the environment and roles but low with 3.17% in personal relations and scaling duty factors. 2. For the causes of stress experienced from the practical scaling training, the highest Gases were the lack of understanding of students studying dental hygiene with 3.77% in environment factor, difficulty in preparing patients for training with 4.34% in personal relations, and scaling patients with severe periodontal disease and with lots of calculus with 4.05% and 3.79% respectively in their roles. The highest cases in scaling duty were times when they felt they were being evaluated with 3.46% and difference between what they`ve learned and its practical training with 3.44%. 3. For the relation among stressful factors, correlation among environment, personal relations, roles and scaling duty was shown with P $lt;0.01 and a high correlation between roles and scaling duty was shown. Students stressed from their roles also got stressed from their scaling duty. 4. For the relation between causes of stress and universal characters of each factor, a statistical significance was shown between scaling duty and causes of stress. The satisfaction with the major was influenced by the environment and the relation between the satisfaction with the practical scaling training and stressful factors was influenced by the personal relations. Generalized the highest stressful cases experienced in each factor at the practical scaling training were the lack of understanding of students studying dental hygiene in the environment, difficulty in preparing patients for their training in the personal relations, facing patients withsevere peridontal disease and lots of calculs in the roles and recognizing being evaluated in the scaling duty. When considered the environment and experiences as causes of stress, the importance of the causes of stress would be relied an the intensity of depressed or adjusted of body from the stress. Therefore, the stress experiences from the course of training became even more deep both mentally and physically when the students were performing the scaling duty feeling unlikely attitude of patients and unfavorable job assessment accordingly They might lose their credits due to uncooperative attitude of patients, whom they barely managed to prepare and untrained scaling skill under unfamiliar environment. For less stress in the roles and students need to practice an models prior to actual scaling in order to perform scaling duty with composure utilizing necessary basic knowledge an scaling what they`ve learned and using right tools. The stress can be reduced when facing voluntary patients who recognize the necessity of scaling for dental care known through positive public information. Therefore, it needs more diversified forms of education to connect theory with an the spot training more closely in education as the students studying dental hygiene need positive attitude to get self-confidence in their roles an scaling in order to perform their activity in not only an the spot training and but also a clinical training.
