목적: 부모의 소아 자녀에 대한 인플루엔자 및 백신 관련한 인식도 차이 변화를 홍보물 교육 유무에 따라 비교 분석하였다. 방법: 2015년 서울, 경기 북부 5개 지역 거주자 중 생후 6개월부터 59개월까지의 자녀가 있는 보호자 1,034명을 대상으로, 설문지 조사를 시행하였다. 설문내용은 백신에 인식 변화 예방접종 의향 이유 등을 포함하였다. 부모는 3군으로 나누어 유무(A군: 교육받지 않음, B군: 교육받음)에 따른 차이와 전후(C군)의 분석하였다. 결과: A군과 B군 간 교육에 의미 항목은 ‘자녀가 고위험군임을 인식함’, ‘독감 예방접종은 효과적’, 비쌈’ 등이었다. C군에서 전후에 안전함’, 비쌈’, 예방접종을 부정적으로 인식함’ 등이었다. 결론: 인플루엔자와 예방접종에 인식은 이후 긍정적인 효과를 보였다.
