Abstract

We aimed to revise and supplement the art therapy kit based on the findings of a review of women's experiences participating in the art therapy kit in the 2030s. After women in their 2030s experienced the developed art therapy kit for one month, we organized two homogeneous groups of 8 art psychotherapy majors and 5 non-majors to collect data through focus group interviews and analyzed them using grounded theory methods. In the end, 100 converted meaning units, 16 subcomponents, and 5 components were derived. There is a lack of research on the development and experience of art or art therapy-based kits in Korea, so it is important for us to provide basic data on the experience of art therapy kits. In addition, the study participants experienced insights into themselves and their emotions based on the accumulated art therapy kit outputs through immersion in emotion exploration and recognition, and these experiences led to the participants' recognition of the need and value of developing art therapy kits. The individual and unique outcomes of the art therapy kits became evidence of self-awareness, confirming the therapeutic effectiveness of art therapy kits as a tool for emotion exploration and recognition and for emotional change and resolution.

우리는 2030대 여성의 미술치료 키트 참여 경험 고찰과 도출된 결과를 통해 미술치료 키트를 수정 및 보완하는 것이 목적이다. 우리는 개발한 미술치료 키트를 2030대 여성들이 1개월간 체험한 후, 예술심리치료 전공자 8명, 비전공자 5명인 2개의 동질 집단을 구성하여 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 통해 자료를 수집하고, 근거이론 방법으로 분석하였다. 최종적으로 100개의 전환된 의미단위, 16개의 하위 구성요소, 5개의 구성요소를 도출하였다. 국내에 미술 혹은 미술치료 기반 키트 개발 및 경험에 관한 연구는 미비한 실정으로 우리는 미술치료 키트 경험에 대한 기초자료를 제공하는 것에 의의가 있다. 또한, 연구 참여자들은 감정 탐색 및 인식을 위한 몰입을 통해 축적된 미술치료 키트 결과물을 기반으로 자신과 감정에 대한 통찰을 경험하였고, 이러한 경험은 참여자들이 미술치료 키트 개발의 필요성과 가치를 인식하는 것으로 연결되었다. 개별적이고 독창성이 있는 미술치료 키트의 결과물은 자신을 인식하는 증거물이 되어 미술치료 키트가 감정 탐색 및 인식의 도구와 감정의 변화 및 해소를 통한 치료적 효과가 있음을 확인한 점에서 의미가 있다.
