新北市立某國民中學學生正確用藥知識、態度與行為之研究

A Study on New Taipei City Junior High Students' Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behavior toward Correct Medication Usage

本研究主要目的在調查新北市某國民中學學生對於正確用藥知識、態度及行為的現況，並探討三者間的關係，進而分析不同背景、正確用藥知識、態度對正確用藥行為的預測情形。本研究採用研究者自編的「國中生正確用藥知識、態度與行為問卷」作為研究工具，以自填式作答。研究對象為新北市某國中七至九年級學生，採隨機分層集束抽樣，抽取12個班級學生為樣本，得有效樣本為394名。研究結果發現，研究對象對正確用藥五大核心能力知識的瞭解程度尚佳，態度大多為正向且行為表現尚佳。研究對象的正確用藥知識、態度及行為三者之間均呈顯著中度正相關，顯示若研究對象愈瞭解正確用藥知識、正確用藥態度愈正向，則其正確用藥行為表現愈佳。研究對象的個人背景因素、正確用藥知識、正確用藥態度三類變項能顯著預測正確用藥行為，可解釋正確用藥行為總變異量的33.8％，對正確用藥行為具有中度解釋力。根據研究結果，本研究提出對於規劃校園正確用藥教育工作及未來研究兩方面的建議，以作為未來推動校園正確用藥教育實務與研究工作之參考。

The study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior toward correct medication usage and to explore the relationship between the above variables among the students at a junior high school in New Taipei City. The study also predicted the correct medication use behavior by background variables, correct medication use knowledge and attitudes. The survey questionnaire was designed by the researcher and the data was collected via self-administration by the student respondents. Stratified cluster random sampling was used to select participants among the seventh to ninth graders. Students in twelve classes were selected, and a total of 394 questionnaires received and analyzed. The results showed that significant positive correlations existed among the correct medication use knowledge, attitudes, and behavior among the student respondents. Results indicated that when student respondents were more aware of the correct medication use knowledge and had more positive attitudes toward correct medication use, they would perform more correct medication use behavior. Background factors, correct medication use knowledge and attitudes could significantly predict correct medication use behavior among the student respondents, while also explaining 33.8% of the variance. Suggestions for school correct medication use education and future research were provided. It is recommended to enhance the proper medication use behavior among the adolescents and to explore the differences and trends of medication use knowledge, attitudes, and behavior among the adolescents of different ages.
