본 연구는 RPG(Role Playing Game) 형식을 활용한 이야기치료 집단상담 프로그램이 아동의 행복감과 부정적 정서에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구이다. 연구 대상은 서울 소재 정신건강증진센터 및 초등학교에서 정서 및 행동 문제로 의뢰된 30명의 아동으로, 각 15명씩 처치집단과 대조집단에 무작위 배정하였고, 처치집단에는 8주간 주당 1회기(60분), 총 8회기의 프로그램을 실시하였다. 그 결과 처치집단의 우울, 상태불안, 특성불안이 대조집단과 비교하여 통계적으로 유의미하게 감소하였고, 행복감은 유의미하게 증가하였다. 이는 프로그램 종료 20일 후 재측정 시에도 유지되었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 사용된 RPG형식을 활용한 이야기치료 집단상담 프로그램은 부정적 정서를 감소시키고, 행복감을 증가시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
