한국 정부 지원의 건강증진 연구 = Health Promotion Researches Supported by the Korean Government

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: This study was carried out to examine the trends of government-supported health promotion research projects conducted in Korea over the past 12 years.
Methods: Research type, area of interest, organization, and expense of 726 research projects conducted from 1998 to 2009 were examined and the health promotion content analyzed.
Results: In Korea, 361 health policy researches (HPR) and 365 general health researches (GHR) were supported by the government during the defined time period. A total of 60.5 health promotion research were conducted annually with a total amount of 27.1 billion won provided (2.26 billion won per year). With the average research project lasting 8.5 months, HPR (7.7 months) projects were completed sooner than GHR (9.2 months).
Those who majored in preventive medicine completed 177 research (24.4%), the most number of research projects, followed by public health (22.5%), and family medicine (15.6%). There were 641 health promotion research projects done mostly on policies, legal systems, and grasping current conditions, and only 85 (11.7%)clinical test research on the development or effects of health promotion programs.
Conclusions: HPR have been increasing annually. However, our study could not be certain of how close the studies were to the government's health promotion policies. Furthermore, the main health promotion area,'healthy living', was not researched as often as should be. Additionally, to improve applicability of the research projects, interdisciplinary cooperation should be promoted.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

연구배경: 본 연구는 지난 12년간 수행된 정부지원 건강증진연구 동향을 분석하고자 하였다.
방법: 1998년부터 2009년까지 시행된 건강증진연구 과제 726개를 대상으로 연구유형, 연구분야, 수행기관 및 연구비 등을 분석하였다.
결과: 지난 12년간 실시된 총 726과제 중 정책연구는361과제(49.7%)였고 일반연구는 365과제였다. 연간 평균적으로 60.5개의 과제가 진행되었으며, 매년 22.6억 원씩12년간 총 271억 원이 지원되었다. 연구기간은 평균 8.5개월이었으며, 정책연구(7.7개월)가 일반연구(9.2개월)보다 짧은 경향을 보였다. 연구수행자는 예방의학 전공자가177과제(24.4%)로 가장 많았으며, 보건학 22.5%, 가정의학 15.6% 등의 순이었다. 건강증진연구는 대부분(641과제) 정책이나 법․제도 등에 관한 연구, 현황 파악에 대한조사연구 중심이었고, 건강증진 프로그램 개발이나 효과를 분석한 임상시험연구는 85과제(11.7%)에 불과하였다.
결론: 건강증진연구 중 정부의 정책 사업과 밀접히 연관된 정책연구 과제가 지속적으로 확대된 것으로 보이고있으나 ‘건강생활실천’ 영역이 차지하는 연구비중이 높지않았다. 또한 연구의 적용가능성을 향상시키기 위하여 다학제 간 참여가 활성화되어야 한다.
