Objective : This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of play on the relationship between toddlers' sleep habits and problem-solving. Methods : In total, 1,734 participants were selected from the 3rd wave of the Panel Study on Korean Children. A structural equation modeling approach was utilized to examine the relationship among toddlers' play, sleep habits, and problem-solving, as well as to investigate the mediating effect of play. Results : The monthly age of the study participants ranged from 23 to 32 months, with 885 (51.0%) boys and 849 (49.0%) girls. The indirect effects of play on problem-solving skills (β = 0.137, p = .006) were statistically significant, but the direct effects of sleep habits on problem-solving skills (β = -.015, p = .871) and the total effect (β = 0.122, p = .057) were not significant. Conclusion : This study indicated that sleep habits did not have a direct effect on problem-solving ability, but that the indirect effects were significant and fully mediated by play. Incorrect sleep habits can negatively affect lifelong development. Therefore, parents would need to be aware of whether their child is developing good sleep habits during the toddler age.

전통적인 수학교육은 간단한 수학적 사실을 이해하고 활용하는 측면에 있어서는 효과적일 수도 있지만, 수학적 개념, 원리, 법칙을 학생 스스로 탐구, 발견하고 창조하는 능력을 기르는 데는 적절하지 않다. 이러한 능력을 기르기 위해서는 학생들 스스로가 관찰, 조작, 분석, 종합하는 활동을 강화할 필요가 있다. 구체적 조작물을 학습도구로 활용하는 경우, 수학 학습에 대한 흥미와 자신감을 길러 주고, 자신의 수준에 맞는 내용을 자기 주도적 학습을 통하여 성취감을 가지게 하며, 학생 스스로 탐구 활동을 활발히 하는데 도움이 된다. 삶의 질이 급격히 향상되는 정보사회에서는 사이버 공간의 등장으로 공간감각 기능의 필요성이 더욱 절실한 바, 현행 수학교과서에서 제공되는 각종 공간 도형들은 3차원 공간에서 이루어지지 않고 평면도형으로 처리함으로써 아동의 도형인지 능력 향상에 큰 효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 아동의 인지발달 단계를 고려, 도형인지능력 향상을 위한 선 및 점대칭 관련 동기유발, 선수, 기본, 보충, 심화, 평가, 도움말 관련 프로그램을 개발, 적용한 결과 학습자의 동기가 유발되고, 도형 인지능력 향상에 유의미한 결과를 얻었다.

21세기 핵심 키워드 중 하나로 두뇌 산업이 떠오르고 있다. 미국, 일본 등 선진 국가에서는 이미 뇌 연구에 활발한 투자가 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 출생과 성장기 뇌 발달에 문제가 발생하는 발달 장애 아동을 위한 음악 치료 프로그램을 개발하고자 한다. 효과적인 발달 장애 치료를 위해, 조기 발견 후 인지 학습 치료가 필요하다. 그 중 인지 기능과 자가 관리 기능을 기르는 것이 중요한데, 리듬 타이밍 훈련이 발달 장애 아동의 기억 능력 개선에 도움이 된다는 여러 입증된 연구 결과가 있다. 그러나 아직까지 발달 장애 아동을 위한 적절한 치료 방법이 없기에 본 논문에서는 인지 학습 치료가 필요한 아동에게 도움을 주기 위해 동요의 정확한 리듬, 음정을 학습하는 프로그램을 제안한다. 아동의 지속적인 흥미를 끌 수 있는 게임과 인지능력 훈련을 결합하였기에, 보다 좋은 학습 효과를 유도할 수 있을 것이다.

The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between social support and child behavior problems and cognitive development in low income female-headed families. Informed by the stress-coping theory, family process model, and theoretical perspectives related to social support, this study estimates both direct and indirect effects of social support on child behavior problems and cognitive development. In particular, we focus on how the relationship between child outcomes and social support is mediated by mothers' parenting stress. The first three waves of longitudinal data from a subsample of 1,315 single and non-cohabiting low-income mothers in the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study were utilized in this study. Results suggest that social support is directly associated with child behavior problems and also indirectly associated with child behavior problems mediated by mothers' parenting stress. Social support did not have a direct effect on children's cognitive development but rather had an indirect effect, which was mediated by mothers' parenting stress. The policy and practice implications of these findings are discussed.

This study examined the correlation between the rhythm reproduction performance and cognitive function of school-aged children. A total of 59 third grade elementary students participated in this study. An iPad-based rhythm reproduction task, the Digit Span Test (DST), the Children's Color Trails Test (CCTT), and a self-paced tapping task via a MIDI keyboard were conducted for each participant. The results demonstrated that scores at each stage of the iPad-based rhythm reproduction test showed different patterns of correlation with cognitive function test scores. This result suggests that accuracy of a simple rhythm task is correlated to speed of self-paced tapping (second). Also cognitive function may affect rhythm grouping ability. Results of this analysis for each of 20 rhythm items showed that there was a common rhythm characteristics that correlated with executive function, working memory or self-paced tapping speed. These results indicate that rhythm ability is related to, and predictive of, the level of cognitive functioning in elementary school students and can be used as an useful parameter when examining cognitive function of school-aged children in multifaceted dimensions.

Objectives：The study was performed to compare the executive function(EF；Inhibition, Planning and Working memory) between ADHD and normal group, and to controll the effect of age and intelligence. And the function of inhibition was assessed in two dimensions(cognitive inhibition and motor inhibition). Methods：K-WISC III and EF test(Go-No-Go, Stroop test, Tower of Hanoi, Digit) was administered to both 25 children with ADHD and 25 normal control participants, all aged between 7 and 12. The results were analyzed after statistically controlled for age and intelligence. Results：Children in the ADHD group had significantly lower IQ score than those in the control group and consistent relations were found between the child's age and the study's major variables. Once IQ and age were controlled, results indicated that children with ADHD had deficit only cognitive inhibition and motor inhibition. There was no significant difference in planning and working memory. Conclusion：These results suggested that specific deficits in inhibition control rather than general EF deficits are associated with ADHD. So inhibition is the core problem of children with ADHD. Thus, the therapeutic approach focused on cognitive inhibition and motor inhibition is required.

The purpose of this study is to investigated the impact of reading therapy programs(classes) on the cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and peer relationships of children in the lower grades of elementary school. The study was conducted at the B Public Library in A Metropolitan City, Korea. Eight elementary school students participated in the REBT reading therapy program for 12 sessions, each lasting 120 minutes, every Saturday. The research method was qualitative, and an observer was appointed to verify the qualitative research. The observer and the researcher qualitatively analyzed the participant's cognitive, emotional, and behavioral observation diaries and pre- and post-person-picture tests for each session. As a result of the study, the REBT reading therapy program was found to have a positive impact on the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral changes and formation of peer relationships of the children. The results of the study show the need for children and youth institutions, including public libraries, to develop and operate reading therapy programs for various groups.
