Abstract
This study was done to examine the effect of 'Zippy's friends' program based on stress coping model for early child. A nonequivalent control group was designed to conduct a pre-post test for this study. The participants for this study were 148 first grade elementary school students in G city(experimental group=72, control group=76). The experimental group received 'Zippy's friends program for 24 weeks (6 module, 24 hours). The control group did not receive any treatment. From April to December 2017 data were collected using self-report structured questionnaires, and were analyzed using the ${\chi}^2$-test, t-test, and ANCOVA with SPSS/WIN 20.0 Program. After the treatment, significant differences were found between the experimental group and control groups in terms of stress coping ability( F=22.77, p<.001),but not in level of emotional intelligence (t=-.37, p=.715). Results of this study indicate that Zippy's program can be used in school based practice as an effective mental health intervention for early child.
