Abstract

This study examined the effect of rope play through forest experience on children's self-confidence. Empirical analysis through the experimental design was carried out on an experimental group of 15 (seven male and eight female children) and a control group of 15 (nine male and six female children). Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) for the effect between the experimental and control groups after the experimental treatment showed that the mean of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (F=357.350, p<.001). Rope play through forest experience has a statistically significant effect on the children's self-confidence. Consequently, rope play through forest experience between peers is a beneficial experience that helps improve children's self-confidence. Furthermore, it is a positive play activity to help them with a passive character boost to their self-confidence through cooperation between peers.

본 연구는 숲체험 놀이에서 밧줄 놀이가 유아 자신감에 미치는 효과를 분석하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 실험집단 15명(남아7명, 여아8명)과 비실험집단 15명(남아9명, 여아6명)을 대상으로 실험설계를 통한 실증분석하였다. 실험처치를 하고 실험집단 및 통제집단 간 효과를 검정하기 위해 공분산분석(ANCOVA)을 실시한 결과, 실험집단의 평균이 통제집단의 평균보다 통계적으로 의미있게 높은 것으로 나타났다(F=357.350, p<.001). 이같은 결과는 숲체험 밧줄 놀이를 통해 유아의 자신감에 미치는 효과가 통계적으로 의미 있는 효과를 나타낸 것으로 평가할 수 있다. 이는 또래 간 숲체험 밧줄 놀이가 유아의 자신감 향상에 보다 긍정적인 효과를 나타내주는 유익한 놀이로 유아들의 숲체험 놀이를 통해 또래 간 협력을 통한 상호작용 속에 감정과 충동조절로 소극적 성격의 유아의 자신감을 높여주는 긍정적인 놀이활동임을 확인시켜준 것으로 판단할 수 있다.
