METHODS: One hundred forty-seven departments in 27 universities were sampled by stratified randomization. Three sections of the questionnaire were developed, including 10 true/false questions to measure knowledge, 4 questions for attitude in a 5-point scale, and 10 questions for practice in a 5-point scale. RESULTS: A total of 6270 subjects completed the survey instrument for a valid response rate of 91.9%. Students who were health science majors had safer medication practices than non-health science majors. However, students in both groups had low scores on appropriate antibiotics use, with a correctness rate of 45.8%. Knowledge relating to antacid use had the lowest number of correct responses among the 10 items included in the survey. Overall, the students showed positive attitudes toward (12.6 +/- 2.2) and trusted (3.6 +/- 0.7) pharmacists~ consultation. CONCLUSIONS: College students lack appropriate knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to the safe use of medications, and efforts are warranted in Taiwan. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=20131 ------>authors2=Lee JA ------>authors3=Huang WF ------>authors4=Chen SM ------>authors5=Chen HY* ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=Hsiao FY ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=Survey of medication knowledge and behaviors among college students in Taiwan. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no=2 ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2006 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=4 |
