ABSTRACT
En este documento se presenta el panorama de la Introducción de la metodología de las ciencias sociales como es la antropología y la Investigación de tipo etnográfico, a la formación de recursos de enfermería en la Escuela Nacional de Enfermería y Obstetricia (ENEO), situación que se ha visto favorecida por la aparición de nuevas demandas hacia las profesiones de la salud por parte de la sociedad, que han exigido el redimensionamiento del campo de actividad y del sistema de conocimientos, habilidades y valores profesionales, como condición del desempeño exitoso, bajo las nuevas condiciones del mundo globalizado y las necesidades de atención a poblaciones culturalmente diversas, cuestión que en nuestro país es pan de todos los días.
This paper presents an overview of the introduction of the methodology of social sciences, as anthropology and ethnographic research, to the training of nursing resources at the National School of Nursing and Obstetrics (Acronym in Spanish: ENEO). A situation like that, has been fueled by the emergence of new demands on the health professions by the society, who have required the downsizing of the field of business and system knowledge, skills and professional values, as a condition of successful performance under new conditions in the globalized world, and the new care needs of the population culturally diverse, a question that in our country is daily bread.

The purpose of this study is to establish the Korean concept of the terms related to the use of alcohol and to use those terms in order to replace the terminologies which are inadequate within the Korean culture in diagnosing alcohol abuse. To achieve our intent, the Focus Group Study ethnographic research method was used in this study. The results are as follows: 1) Alcohol is generally perceived as a food rather than a substance in Korea. Alcohol-related behaviors are judged to be problematic according to the problems f311owing the drinking behavior rather than the drinking behavior itself. 2) Repetitive drinking in spite of interpersonal problems was found to be a significant diagnostic guideline of alcoholism in Korea. This finding befits the concept of diagnostic criteria of DSM-III-R and ICD-10. 3) It would be to be appropriate to add some of the typical symptoms rather than change the whole diagnostic concept of ICD or DSM to establish the medical concept of withdrawl phenomenon. 4) Alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence are two separate disease entities. Thus, education of the concepts would allow Koreans to distinguish and to use these two terms. 5) The concepts of acute intoxication, abuse, harmful use and dependence in ICD and DSM should be used after an appropriate revision.
