Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a chorus program in a local child center regarding character, social skills, problematic behaviors, and ADHD. Subjects of this study included 24 children in elementary schools participating in the daytime programs at a local child center located in Suwon, South Korea. The chorus program was comprised of 12 sessions of 60 minutes each, conducted from April 5-July 5, 2017. Results of this study were as follows: First, during the interviews on the character of the children before and after participation in the chorus program, it was noted that the children became more active in terms of the relationships with others and leadership. However, it was also noted that children were more active at the center than they were at their schools. Second, the differences in social skills before and after the chorus program among children were significant in overall social skills and their sub-variables, indicating that there were effective in adjusting social skills. Third, the differences in problematic behaviors before and after participation in the chorus program were significant only in overall problematic behaviors and excessive behavior. This indicates that the program was effective in improving problematic behaviors, particularly for excessive behavior. Fourth, the differences before and after participation in the chorus program in terms of ADHD were statistically significant for ADHD and its sub-variables of carelessness and hyperactivity impulsiveness. This indicates that there was an overall improvement in attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Therefore, the findings in this study showed that the chorus program was effective on enhancing character, social skills, problematic behaviors, and ADHD behaviors.

본 연구의 목적은 지역아동센터 아동대상 합창프로그램이 인성 사회적 기술 그리고 문제행동 주의력결핍에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구의 대상은 수원시에 소재한 지역아동센터 주간프로그램에 참여하고 있는 초등학교 1학년에서 6학년까지 24명의 아동을 대상으로 하였다. 합창 프로그램은 2017년 4월 5일부터 7월 5일까지 회기 당 60분씩 12회기를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 지역아동센터 아동의 합창활동 전후 아동의 인성에 대한 인터뷰에서는 학교에서 보다 센터에서 타인과의 관계와 리더십 있는 행동이 더욱 적극적으로 변화했다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 지역아동센터 아동의 합창활동 전후 사회적 기술의 차이는 사회적 기술 전체와 하위변인 모두에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보여 사회적 기술 변화에 효과가 있었음을 알 수 있다. 셋째, 지역아동센터 아동의 합창활동 전후 문제행동의 차이는 문제행동 전체와 하위변인 중 과잉행동에서만 유의한 차이를 보여 문제행동 개선에 어느 정도 효과가 있었으며, 특히 과잉행동에 효과가 있었음을 알 수 있다. 넷째, 지역아동센터 아동의 합창활동 전후 주의력결핍과잉행동장애의 차이는 주의력결핍과잉행동장애 전체 및 하위척도인 부주의와 과잉행동충동성 모두에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 주의력결핍과잉행동이 전반적으로 개선되었음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과를 통해 합창 프로그램 활동이 지역아동센터 아동의 인성과 사회적 기술, 문제행동, 주의력결핍행동에 효과가 있었음을 증명하였다.
