Abstract EN
Background.
In Korea, a few studies regarding traditional Korean medicine (TKM) education have been conducted.
The aim of this study is to evaluate students’ perceptions regarding TKM education in Korea and compare them with those of other countries using a quantitative scale, Dundee Ready Educational Environment Measure (DREEM).
Materials and Methods.
We conducted a survey using DREEM in a TKM college.
Totally, 325 students responded to this survey and we performed the descriptive statistics of scores in all items, subscales, and total.
Additionally, subgroup comparisons according to gender, school year, and academic achievement were analyzed.
Results.
Mean overall DREEM score was 94.65 out of 200, which is relatively low compared to previous studies.
Particularly, perceptions regarding subscales of learning, atmosphere, and self-perceptions were interpreted as problematic.
There was no statistically significant difference between genders in spite of some differences among groups based on school year or academic achievement.
Conclusions.
We could examine students’ perceptions regarding TKM education at a TKM college using DREEM for which validity and reliability were verified.
TKM education was perceived relatively poor, but these quantitative indicators suggested which parts of education need improvement.
We expect DREEM to be used widely in TKM or traditional medical education field.
