Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference between smartphone addiction and sensory processing ability depending on the time of smartphone usage by at risk of smartphone addiction. Methods : Participants of this study were 124 toddlers in a The data collection period was from September 2019 to December 2019. Measurements in this study included a questionnaire on general information about the subject, a smartphone addiction scale, and a short sensory profile. Methods for the data analysis included descriptive statistics and an independent t-test using SPSS 22.0. Results : There were significant differences between groups depending on smartphone usage time in terms of total smartphone addiction, salience, impulse-compulsive use, withdrawal, tolerance, and interpersonal conflict among toddlers. There were also significant difference in sensory processing ability between groups according to the total Short Sensory Profile score (and in all sub-domains; p=.000 ~ .042). Conclusion : This study found that there was a difference in smartphone addiction and sensory processing ability depending on the smartphone usage time of toddlers at risk of smartphone. It is meaningful because it raises the need for education on the use of smartphones by toddlers.

목적 : 스마트폰 중독 위험군 유아의 스마트폰 사용시간에 따른 스마트폰 중독 정도와 감각처리능력의 차이를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 연구 대상자는 스마트폰 중독 위험군 유아 124명이었고, 연구 기간은 2019년 9월부터 동년 12월까지이었다. 연구 방법은 설문조사로 일반적 특성, 유·아동 스마트폰 중독 관찰자 척도, 단축감각프로파일을 사용하였다. 분석방법은 스마트폰 사용시간에 따른 스마트폰 중독의 차이와 중독군에 따른 감각처리능력의 차이를 비교하기 위해 독립표본 t-test를 사용 하였다. 결과 : 스마트폰 사용시간에 따른 집단 간 스마트폰 중독의 차이는 스마트폰 중독합계(p=.000)와 현저성(p=.027), 충동·강박적 사용(p=.019), 금단(p=.046), 내성(p=.003), 대인 간 갈등(p=.046)에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 집단 간 감각처리능력의 차이는 SSP 총점(p=.000) 및 하위영역 모두에서 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=.000~.042). 결론 : 본 연구는 유아의 스마트폰 사용시간에 따른 스마트폰 중독과 감각처리능력의 차이가 있는 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 유아의 스마트폰 사용에 대한 교육의 필요성을 제기하였다는 점에서 의의를 갖는다.
