Abstract

This study was designed to determine the Internet game and smartphone usage status of senior elementary school students. Data were collected from 6 October 2018 to 30 September 2019, and 1618 subjects were analyzed using SPSS 18.0. As a result of the study, the I-GUESS rating was 6.1% in the high-risk group, and, the S-scale ratios were 10.1% for the potential-risk group and 0.8% for the high-risk group. Physical problems related to Internet games and using smartphones were experienced by 36.0% of the students, with eye fatigue being the highest at 20.4%. Emotional problems were found in 18.5% of the students, with anger being the highest at 6.8%. Social problems were experienced by 21.8% of the students, conflicts with parents being the highest at 10.3%. As a result of surveying the main content based on S-scale and I-GUESS, it was found that the higher the S-scale ratio and the I-GUESS rating, the more broadcast content was used. The correlation between I-GUESS rating and S-scale ratio showed that the higher the I-GUESS rating, the higher the S-scale ratio, and the higher the S-scale ratio, the higher the I-GUESS rating. Future research is necessary to develop an intervention program for elementary school students from a preventive perspective.

본 연구의 목적은 초등학교 고학년 학생의 인터넷 게임 및 스마트폰 이용실태를 파악하고자 하였다. 2018년 10월 6일부터 2019년 9월 30일까지 K 지역 소재 16개 초등학교에 재학 중인 4~6학년 1,618명을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였고, 기술통계와 빈도분석, Chi-square를 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 인터넷 게임중독 자가진단척도(I-GUESS)는 고위험군이 6.1%로 나타났고, 스마트폰 과의존 척도(S-scale)는 잠재적 위험군 10.1%, 고위험군 0.8%로 나타났다. 인터넷 게임 및 스마트폰 사용과 관련된 신체적 문제는 36.0%가 경험했다고 응답했고, 눈의 피로가 20.4%로 가장 높았다. 정서적 문제는 18.5%에서 경험했다고 응답했으며, 분노가 6.8%로 가장 높았다. 사회적 문제는 21.8%가 경험한 것으로 파악되었고, 부모와의 갈등이 10.3%로 가장 높게 보고되었다. S-scale 점수와 I-GUESS 점수에 따른 주 사용 콘텐츠를 조사한 결과, S-scale 점수와 I-GUESS 점수가 높을수록 중계방송콘텐츠를 가장 많이 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. I-GUESS와 S-Scale 간의 상관관계에서는 I-GUESS와 S-Scale 간의 상관관계에서는 I-GUESS 점수가 고위험군 일수록, S-scale의 고위험군 비율도 높게 나타났으며, S-scale 점수가 고위험군 일수록 I-GUESS 점수의 고위험군 비율도 높은 것으로 나타났다. 향후, 이러한 변수를 고려하여 예방의 관점에서 초등학생을 위한 중재 프로그램 및 부모 교육 컨텐츠 개발이 시급함을 제언코자 한다.
