여성근로자의 대사증후군 예방을 위한 건강증진 행위에 대한 의도 영향요인: 계획적 행위이론 적용

This study aimed to identify factors influencing the intention to perform health-promoting behaviors among female workers at high risk for metabolic syndrome, based on the Theory of Planned Behavior(TPB). The participants were 219 female workers employed at workplaces in K City who had one or two risk factors for metabolic syndrome, as determined by the National Health Screening results. Data were collected from September 12 to 30, 2024, using a structured questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 for descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, correlation analysis, and hierarchical multiple regression. The mean scores were 5.62 for attitude toward health-promoting behaviors, 4.89 for subjective norms, 5.21 for perceived behavioral control and 5.47 for behavioral intention. significant differences in behavioral intention were found according to age, marital status, education level, years of service, exercise frequency, and sleep duration(p< .05). Behavioral intention was most strongly correlated with perceived behavioral control(r= .63, p< .01), followed by attitude(r= .61, p< .01) and subjective norms(r= .58, p< .01). The strongest predictor of health-promoting behavioral intention was perceived behavioral control(β= .35, p< .01), followed by attitude(β= .27, p< .01), subjective norms(β= .23, p< .01) and exercise frequency(β= .12, p= .02). The final regression model explained 48% of the variance in behavioral intention. To enhance female workers’ intention to engage in health-promoting behaviors, interventions should focus on fostering positive attitudes, strengthening social support and improving self-efficacy and perceived control. Incorporating multidimensional strategies based on TPB in workplace health promotion programs may effectively encourage sustained behavioral engagement.
