摘要


隨著台灣社會父母雙親均須就業的時代趨勢,幼稚園教師逐漸取代父母,成為幼童在白天時間的主要照顧者。在照顧幼童的過程中,發燒是幼童常見的健康問題,也是照顧者在幼童罹病時較擔憂的症狀之ㄧ。本研究的目的即是在探討幼稚園教師對幼童發燒之知識、態度與處置行為現況及其相關因素。 本研究以台中市幼稚教師為研究母群體,利用Sample size calculator 軟體計算樣本數,依行政區域採取等機率比例分配分層隨機抽樣法抽出教師個別填寫問卷,研究工具包括人口學資料、幼童發燒知識量表、幼童發燒態度五分量表、幼童發燒處置行為五分量表之調查問卷。收案期間為2010年10月至11月間,總計獲得有效問卷322份,所得資料以SPSS 12.0套裝軟體進行統計分析。 研究結果發現台中市幼稚園教師平均年齡34.47歲,平均年資10.46年,教育程度大學者佔七成以上,未婚及已婚者各佔約五成左右,有無子女也各佔五成,僅有5.9%表示曾參與幼童發燒之相關課程。幼稚園教師對幼童發燒知識平均每題得分為0.57分,以百分計分法而言未達60分水準;態度平均每題得分為2.99分,照護發燒幼童的態度接近中立看法;處置行為平均每題得分達3.66分,表示照護發燒的處置行為出現頻率不低。 本研究結果發現幼稚園教師對幼童發燒知識、態度與處置行為間皆為正相關,在幼童發燒照顧上,首重知識的提升。本文結果建議於幼教學程或幼教老師在職教育課程中,應安排除採用授課方式外,可加上實務操作機會及照護經驗分享,以提升幼稚園教師對幼童發燒知識、態度及處置行為,進而期望透過幼教老師來促進幼童健康。

With the change of most families have dual earners in Taiwan,therefore, kindergarten teachers have gradually replaced parents to become the primary caregivers of children during the daytime. During the care process, fever is a common health care issue of children, and is also one of the symptoms concerned by caregivers when children suffer from any illness. The purpose of this study is to investigate the current status of kindergarten teachers’ knowledge, attitude, and behavior for children’s fever and relevant affecting factors. The research population was kindergarten teachers in Taichung City, UsingSample size calculator software was used to calculate the sample size .Questionnaires were proportionally distributed according to the proportions of administrative divisions. Stratified random sampling method was used to select teachers to complete the questionnaires individually. The research tools included demographic data and questionnaires such as Scale on Knowledge of Children’s Fever, Five-point Scale on Attitude towards Children’s Fever, and Five-point Scale on Behavior for Children’s Fever. The questionnaire survey was conducted from October to November 2010, and a total of 322 valid questionnaires were returned, and SPSS 12.0 was used to conduct statistical analyses. According to the statistical results, the average age of kindergarten teachers in Taichung City was 34.47 and the average years of service was 10.46. As for level of education, more than 70% of them were college graduates. Approximately 50% of them were single and 50% of them were married. 50% of them did not have any child, while 50% of them had child. Only 5.9% of them indicated that they had participated in children’s fever-related courses. Kindergarten teachers’ average score of knowledge of children’s fever was 0.57 point for each item, failing to reach the 60 percentile. The average score of attitude was 2.99 points, suggesting that kindergarten teachers have a neutral attitude towards the care for children suffering from fever. The average score of behavior was 3.66 points per item, suggesting that the frequency of fever care behavior is not low. It was found that, there is a positive correlation among kindergarten teachers’ knowledge, attitude, and behavior for children’s fever. In terms of the care for children’s fever, the priority should be given to the increase in knowledge. It is advised that, besides the provision of instruction, the opportunity of practical operation and sharing of care experience can be included in kindergarten teachers’ educational program or in-service educational courses to improve their knowledge, attitude, and behavior for children’s fever. It is hoped that children’s health can be further improved through kindergarten teachers.
