本研究之目的為探討台灣民眾事故傷害發生狀況及其相關因素種類,並使用行政院主計處2005年「台灣地區社會發展趨勢調查訪問表─健康安全」次級資料庫,進行資料分析與橫斷面研究。 研究結果發現,台灣民眾發生事故傷害的邏輯斯迴歸模型顯示年齡愈低、行政人員與勞工、個人全年收入愈低、自覺健康狀況愈不健康、嗜睡程度愈嚴重及體重愈超越正常範圍者愈可能發生事故傷害,其中對於事故傷害發生之影響力最大者為自覺健康狀況,其次是嗜睡程度,再者為年齡。 「最近三個月內事故傷害發生有無」之相關因素研究結果只可做為「最近一個月內事故傷害發生有無」之相關因素研究參考;其結果雷同,可說明調查一個月與三個月內之事故傷害發生相關因素無明顯差異。 本研究發現容易發生事故傷害之民眾特質,相關單位可參考本研究結果並針對各民眾之特質進行相關的衛教工作與研究、檢視現階段不足之處,並投入資源改善,以達到保護民眾生命安全的目標。
The study examines the related factors associated with injuries in Taiwan by using the cross-sectional study design and secondary data set of 2005 Survey of Social Development Trends—Health and Security which was conducted by Directorate General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics Executive Yuan, R.O.C. The results of logistic regression revealed that younger groups, administrators and laborers, lower personal yearly income, self-perceived unhealthy, the level of hypersomnia, and abnormal weight were more likely to have accident injuries. Considering to the extent of association, the most important factors are self-perceived health, the level of hypersomnia, and age group. There was no significant difference between the researches on accident injuries in one month and three months. The results of this study identified the traits of people who are likely to have accident injuries. More healthy promotions and researches should be implemented upon the specific population based on this study. Policy makers could review the inadequate policies or actions and improve it to achieve the goal of saving more lives.
