Abstract

This study intends to derive play attribute words to describe the nature of play by analyzing the correlation between play facilities and play attribute words. To investigate play attributes at playing facilities and supplement areas of weakness can provide a balanced play environment. Play attributes words were compiled via a literature review and the importance of each play attributes word was surveyed by experts. The keywords explaining play derived from news articles and references are defined as play attributes words. These words were classified into six broad categories and twenty-six sub-categories. The importance of major play attribute words show: Communication (0.268%) > Imagination (0.201%) > Amusement (0.190%) > Development (0.167%) > Learning (0.108%) > Intelligence (0.067%). Experts have recognized the most important elements are communication and imagination. Each play attribute associated with an amusement facility was separately identified in the amusement facilities installed in 114 children's parks in Seoul. Of the play attribute words, the amusement facilities at Seoul's Children's Park reflected a high frequency in 'development'. Furthermore, the importance of major playing attribute words such as 'Communication' and 'Imagination' were not fully reflected in cognitive play facilities. Therefore, it was judged that there is a need to actively introduce these attributes. This study proposed future improvements by determining weaknesses of amusement facilities in children's parks and analyzing the features and functions of play so as to suggest future improvements.

본 연구는 놀이의 본질을 설명하는 놀이속성어를 추출하고, 이러한 속성이 현재 사용되는 어린이놀이시설물과의연관성을 지니는지를 확인하는 연구이다. 놀이시설물에 반영된 놀이속성을 조사하여 부족한 점을 보완함으로써 어린이에게 균형 잡힌 놀이 환경을 제공할 수 있다고 생각하기 때문이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 문헌조사 및 분석을 통해 속성어를 추출하고, 추출된 속성어에 대하여 전문가 설문을 실시하였다. 놀이를 설명하는 키워드는 참고문헌과 신문기사 등에서 추출하고 압축하여 놀이속성어로 규정하였고, 6개의 대분류와 26개의 중분류로 분류하였다. 이 내용을 바탕으로 실시한 전문가 인식조사에서 주요 놀이속성어의 중요도는 소통(0.268%) > 상상력(0.201%) > 정서(0.190%) > 발달(0.167%) > 학습(0.108%) > 지능(0.067%)의 순서로 나타났다. 전문가들은 '소통'과 '상상력' 등을 놀이에서 가장 중요한 요소로 인지하고 있었다. 도출된 내용을 바탕으로 놀이시설물과 연관되는 각각의 놀이속성어를 구분하고, 서울시 114개소 어린이 공원에 설치된 놀이시설물 현황을 파악하였다. 서울시 어린이공원에 설치된 놀이시설물에는 놀이속성어 중 '발달'을 위주로 한 신체발달 놀이시설물이 높은 빈도로 모든 어린이공원에 반영되었으며, 전문가들이 중요한 요소로 나타난 '소통'과 '상상력' 등 인지관련 놀이시설물은 실제 충분히 반영되어 있지 않아 적극적으로 도입할 필요성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구를 통해 현재 이용되고 있는 어린이 공원의 부족한 놀이시설물을 파악하고, 놀이의 기능에 대한 의문을 제기함으로써 향후 개선방향을 제안하고자 하였다.
