Abstract

In order to investigate the effects on school age children's emotional intelligence and happiness from the perspective of Korean medicine, integrated arts therapy was conducted for children participating in the Education Welfare Priority Support Project. This study randomly assigned 20 children with educational welfare priority to 10 students in the experimental group and 10 students in the control group. The experimental group conducted an integrated arts therapy program once a week for a total of 12 sessions at S Elementary School in Busan, and the control group maintained their daily lives. For statistical analysis, the Mann-Whitney U test was used to test the homogeneity of the two groups, and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to analyze the pre- and post-program figures. The integrated arts therapy program had a significant effects on the emotional intelligence and well-being of children receiving Education Welfare Priority Support. Integrated arts therapy, which is part of Korean medicine's mind-body medicine intervention, is an organic relationship in which the body and mind are interdependent, and maintains a state of balance between yin and yang opposition, which has a positive effects on children's emotional intelligence and well-being.
