Proponents of essential oils suggest that they can be used to improve an array of emotional and physical ailments. Whether they are an effective home remedy or not, the perceptions of the therapeutic efficacy of essential oils vary greatly. Research on the perceptions of essential oils among college-educated adults in the state of Utah is lacking. Obtaining higher education in the sciences may influence skepticism of essential oils as a complementary and alternative medicine. The purpose of this study was to understand how Utah Valley University students’ education influences their attitudes toward essential oils as complementary and alternative medicines. The information gathered about the students’ views on essential oils was compared with their respective educational disciplines and sex. The results showed that science major students were more likely to be skeptical of essential oils as a valid form of medical treatment than were students majoring in a non-science degree (P<0.000003). pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
