Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences that appeared in the episodes in understandings of the emotional display rules according to the types of emotions and subjects for expressing emotions. In addition, the interaction effects of intention reasoning types and gender on children's understandings of the real emotions and emotional display rules are explored. 144 4-5 year old children in Chungbuk province participated in the experimental interviews. The results are as follows. First, children comprehended the emotional display rules more clearly in a relationship with peers than adults. In terms of a type of emotion, it was the negative emotions rather than positives ones that those children understood better for real emotions and emotional display rules. Second, the main effect of the intention reasoning types on children's understanding of the emotional display rules appeared significant in all episodes. Especially, in negative emotion-peer episode, children with different types of intention reasoning showed a different level of understanding emotional display rules depending on gender of the children.

본 연구는 이야기 상황(정서의 종류와 대상) 및 의도추론유형과 성에 따라 유아의 정서표현규칙의 이해가 다른지를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 충북지역의 4-5세의 유아 144명을 대상으로 4가지 이야기 상황을 제시하고 각 상황에 대한 의도추론유형과 정서표현규칙의 이해에 대한 실험면접을 실시하였다. Pair t 검증과 반복측정분산분석을 통해 분석한 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 이야기 상황 즉, 정서의 종류(긍정정서와 부정정서)와 관계의 대상(어른과 또래)에 따라 정서표현규칙의 이해는 그 정도가 다른 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 각 이야기 상황에 따라 유아의 정서표현규칙이해에 대한 의도추론유형과 성의 주효과와 상호작용효과를 살펴본 바, 긍정정서-어른이야기, 부정정서-어른이야기, 긍정정서-또래이야기라는 이야기상황에서는 의도추론유형의 주효과만 유의하였으나, 부정정서-또래이야기라는 이야기 상황에 대해서는 의도추론유형과 성의 상호작용효과도 함께 유의한 것으로 나타났다.
