Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study is investigate the effects of sensory integration combined with auditory treatment on the sensory processing, visual perception and attention ability of children with developmental delay. Methods : A combined treatment of auditory training and sensory integration therapy was implemented to 3 children aged 4 to 7 and diagnosed with developmental delay during 9 weeks period from December 2016 to January 2017. ABA' design which is one of single subject research designs was used in this study. Baseline A had 4 sessions, intervention B had 15 sessions, and baseline A' had 4 sessions, so 23 sessions were applied in total. During the baseline A and A 'periods, visual perception ability was measured by K-DTVP-2 (Korea Developmental Test Visual Perception-2) and sensory processing ability was evaluated by sensory profile. The maintenance time of attention was measured with the absence of intervention for the baseline period, and for the intervention period, it was measured at 10 minutes break time which was provided after the intervention. The children's attention time during a fine motor task provided were measured using video recorder with the interval recording method, and the interval for the evaluation was 30 seconds. Results : No statistically significant difference were found in the visual perception function and sensory processing scores before and after treatment. Attention of participant A enhanced significantly while that of participant B and C did not improve significantly. Conclusion : It is hard to conclude that sensory integration therapy combined with auditory perception training has positive effects on visual perception function and attention of children with developmental delays. However, there were significant increase in attention and improvements in behavior related to sensory processing for some cases in this study. In further study, longer intervention periods and valid measurement need to be applied in order to get better results. And it is proposed that more studies need to be done to enhance evidence of auditory perception training as a mean to facilitate attention and to prepare learning.

목적 : 본 연구는 발달지연 아동에게 청지각 훈련과 병행한 감각통합 치료를 시행하여 감각처리, 시지각 발달, 주의집중에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 연구방법 : 발달지연 및 의심소견을 보이는 아동 만 4~7세 아동 3명을 대상으로 2016년 11월부터 2017년 1월 까지 총 9주간 청지각 훈련과 감각통합치료를 병행하여 실시하고 평가 하였다. 개별실험연구방법(single subject research design)중 ABA' 설계를 사용하였으며, 기초선 1기간(A) 4회, 치료 1기간(B)15회, 기초선2 기간(A')4회로 총 23회기를 적용하였다. 시지각 능력은 기초선 A와 A'기간에 Korean Developmental Test Visual Perception-2(K-DTVP-2)를 통하여 측정하였고 감각처리능력은 감각프로파일(Sensory Profile)로 평가하였다. 주의집중 행동의 유지시간은 기초선 기간에 중재가 없는 상태에서 측정하였으며 중재 기간에는 매 중재 후 10분간 마무리 활동시 소근육 과제를 제공하여 비디오로 촬영하였고 등간기록법(interval recording)의 전간기록법을 사용하여 30초 간격으로 주의집중 발생을 평가하였다. 결과 : 청지각 훈련과 감각통합치료를 실시하기 전보다 후에 시지각 기능과 감각처리의 점수의 수치상 향상은 있었고, 주의집중에서는 A아동에게서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었으나 B, C 아동은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론 : 청지각 훈련을 병행한 감각통합 치료가 발달지연 아동의 시지각 기능과 주의집중에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다고 결론짓기에는 한계가 있다. 그러나 일부 발달지연 아동에게서 주의집중의 유의미한 증진이 있었고 점수의 향상이 있었다. 향후 발달지연 아동에게 연구기간, 표준데이터를 제시할 수 있는 평가도구를 적용한다면 명확한 결과가 나타날 수 있을 것이다. 또한 주의집중 유도와 학습을 준비하기 위한 치료방법으로 청지각 훈련의 연구가 추가적으로 시행되어야 한다.
