Abstract

Background: Korean society has become an elderly society at an unprecedented rate, and the associated social and economic problems are very serious. Maintaining a healthy oral condition is important for older people’s well-being and quality of life, and is essential for healthy ageing. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dental hygienists’ experiences related to the elderly on their perception of human rights violations toward the elderly. Methods: This study was conducted through an IRB review at Silla University in Korea (No. 1041449-202012-HR-001). For about a month after 1 February 2021, the survey questionnaire was distributed to dental hygienists living in South Korea, and 153 people who completed and sent back the questionnaires were selected as the final subjects. The items on the questionnaire consisted of perception of human rights violations for the elderly and experiences related to the elderly. A polyserial correlation analysis was performed to confirm the relevance of each factor, and a multiple regression analysis was performed to identify the factors of elderly-related experiences that affect the perception of human rights violations against the elderly. Results: All three experiences related to the elderly (the experience of receiving education related to the elderly, the experience of volunteer work related to the elderly, and the experience of being interested in issues related to the elderly) were highly related to the perception of violations of financial human rights of the elderly (p < 0.01). In addition, the experience of education related to the elderly showed a high perception of psychological violations of the human rights of the elderly (R = 0.405, p < 0.01), and the experience of volunteer activities related to the elderly showed a high perception of neglectful violations of human rights of the elderly (R = 0.277, p < 0.01). Conclusions: In this study, it was confirmed that there is a relationship between dental hygienists’ experiences related to the elderly and their perception of human rights violations in the elderly. Therefore, dental hygienists should do their best to manage the elderly’s oral health by raising awareness of the human rights violations against the elderly through the elderly professional course based on their experience with the elderly.

摘要

背景

韩国社会以前所未有的速度步入老龄化社会，相关的社会和经济问题非常严重。保持健康的口腔状况对老年人的幸福和生活质量很重要，也是健康老龄化所必需的。因此，本研究的目的是调查牙科保健员与老年人相关的经历对他们对老年人侵犯人权行为认知的影响。方法：本研究通过韩国新罗大学的机构审查委员会审查（编号：1041449-202012-HR-001）。在2021年2月1日之后的大约一个月时间里，向居住在韩国的牙科保健员发放调查问卷，153名完成并回寄问卷的人被选为最终研究对象。问卷项目包括对老年人侵犯人权行为的认知以及与老年人相关的经历。进行多系列相关分析以确认各因素的相关性，并进行多元回归分析以确定影响对老年人侵犯人权行为认知的与老年人相关经历的因素。结果：所有三项与老年人相关的经历（接受与老年人相关教育的经历、参与与老年人相关志愿工作的经历以及对与老年人相关问题感兴趣的经历）都与对老年人金融人权侵犯行为的认知高度相关（p < 0.01）。此外，与老年人相关教育的经历显示出对老年人心理人权侵犯行为的高认知（R = 0.405，p < 0.01），与老年人相关志愿活动的经历显示出对老年人忽视性人权侵犯行为的高认知（R = 0.277，p < 0.01）。结论：在本研究中，证实了牙科保健员与老年人相关的经历和他们对老年人侵犯人权行为的认知之间存在关联。因此，牙科保健员应根据他们与老年人的经历，通过老年专业课程提高对老年人侵犯人权行为的认识，尽最大努力管理老年人的口腔健康。
