Survey on the Perceptions of Tele-Physical Therapy of Health and Non-Health Majors in Their 20s

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of tele-physical therapy of health and non-health majors. It can provide basic research data for the provision of medical services in the future by identifying the level of awareness of the need for tele-physical therapy and the factors that affect it. Methods: The subjects were adults aged 20 to 29 in Korea, with 199 participants consisting of 83 health majors and 116 non-health majors. The survey was conducted over a period of 14 days. The survey comprised 19 questions, including 10 questions about general characteristics and 9 questions about tele-physical therapy recognition. The results were statistically analyzed using a statistical package program. Results: There was a significant difference between the two groups regarding the recognition of tele-physical therapy, with an average of 2.64 points in health majors and an average of 1.71 points in non-health majors, showing a low overall score. There was no significant difference in perception of the necessity of tele-physical therapy, with an average of 3.71 points in health majors and an average of 3.49 points in non-health majors, showing a high score, which was defined as a score of 3 or higher. Conclusion: Health and non-health majors showed low awareness of tele-physical therapy. A high level of perceivednecessity for tele-physical therapy was shown. In the perception of tele-physical therapy in health majors, ‘awareness’,‘health improvement’, and ‘convenience’ affect the perception of the necessity of tele-physical therapy. In non-health majors, ‘knowledge and skills’, ‘health improvement’, ‘expected treatment satisfaction’, and ‘resolving restrictions onhospital visits’ affect the perception of the necessity of tele-physical therapy.
