과거와 다르게 문화 예술이 경쟁우위 획득을 위한 핵심요소로 인식되면서, 문화 예술에 대한 접근방식과 향유 방식에 변화가 나타나고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 M금융사 임직원을 대상으로 문화 예술 활동 참여가 조직의 궁극적인 목표라 할 수 있는 업무성과에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 알아보고자 진행되었다. 연구결과 첫째, 창작활동은 직무몰입에 긍정적 영향을 미치지만, 감상활동은 직무몰입에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 감상활동은 창의적 행동에 긍정적 영향을 미치지만, 창작활동은 창의적 행동에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 셋째, 직무몰입은 창의적 행동에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 직무몰입과 업무성과 간의 관계는 직무몰입이 업무성과에 긍정적 영향을 미치며, 창의적 행동역시 업무성과에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 문화 예술 활동 참여와 업무성과 간의 매개효과를 직무몰입과 창의적 행동으로 살펴본 결과, 직무몰입과 창의적 행동이 창작활동과 업무성과 사이를 완전 매개하는 것으로 나타났으나, 감상활동과 업무성과 사이는 매개하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 직무몰입과 업무성과 사이의 창의적 행동에 대한 매개효과는 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective: This study investigated 5-year-old children's developmental levels for creative and social personalities according to gender, and whether participation in STEAM-based unplugged robotic activities can improve their creative and social personalities. Methods: Participants were 5-year-old children (N=125) from 11 child care centers. The experimental group included 29 boys and 24 girls enrolled in classrooms that implemented an unplugged activities curriculum over five weeks. The control group consisted of 38 boys and 34 girls. Data were analyzed using a t-test and analysis of covariance, and Hedges' g was used to measure effect size. Results: First, the participating children's mean scores on creative and social personalities were 3.20 and 3.53 on a 5-point Likert scale, respectively. Girls scored higher than boys in sensitivity-various interests and imagination-playfulness domains of creative personality and all three domains of social personality. Second, children in the experimental group showed improvement in all domains of social personality and the effect size was large. They also improved in three domains (openness-humor, imagination-playfulness, independency-immersion) of creative personality, although the effect size was small. Conclusion/Implications: The results imply that implementing a robotics curriculum with unplugged play activities in early childhood classrooms contributes to 5-year-old children's development of creative and social personalities.
