사회극 극놀이에 나타나는 유아의 상호주관성과 역할유형 및 또래간 유능성간의 관계

The social dramatic play of seventeen five-year-old children was videotaped and transcribed for analysis of Intersubjectivity and play role types. The teachers of the children rated children's social competence. Results showed that children's Intersubjectivity in social dramatic play was related to their play role types and peer competence. Children with a high level of Intersubjectivity play leading roles during social dramatic play and were rated as socially competent by their teachers. The results were discussed from the Vygotskian perspective. Implications for early childhood teachers and suggestions for future studies were provided.
