The purpose of this study was to analyze the research literature on play therapy intervention for children with ADHD. Thirty-nine studies, conducted from 1995 to 2010, were analyzed. The results of the literature review are as follows: The most commonly studied subjects were elementary school children in grades 1-3. The most common subject selection method was to select ADHD tendency children. The most typical intervention setting used was a counseling center. The most frequent intervention was 11-15 sessions of group counseling. Pre-post experimental-control research designs were the most commonly used. In the analyzed studies, play therapy-game play therapy, CBPT, CCPT, sand play therapy, and theraplay- was used for ADHD children. The studies found that game play therapy and cognitive-behavior play therapy are effective for improving ADHD children's attention, impulsiveness, and self-control. The major game play therapy activities used were dart games, "Simon says" games, fishing games, dominoes, Jenga, Beat the Clock, the board game "Stop," and "Ice, break., ice, break." Based on these findings, this article presents implications and discussion for play therapy intervention for ADHD children.

Purpose: This study investigated changes in neurocognitive function over a 2-month period of board game therapy in patients with schizophrenia. Method: Twenty-one schizophrenic patients treated with board game therapy and nineteen control schizophrenic patients were evaluated with neuropsychological and clinical tests, such as the Wisconsin Card Shorting Test (WCST). The same tests were re-administered after 2 months of board game therapy. Results: At the first series of neuropsychological tests, no difference was seen in performance, demographical aspects, or clinical severity among both patient groups. After 2 months, the group receiving board game therapy showed significant improvement of WCST performances compared to the controls. However, no difference was observed in clinical symptoms between the groups. Conclusion: The results of cognitive enhancement in patients playing board games indicates that board game play, easily used in an inpatient setting, is a promising tool for executive function improvement in chronic schizophrenic patients.

Based on the 10 week filial therapy model developed by Landreth (1991) for parents in lower income families, this study used the pre- and post- test model applied to an experimental group of 9 individuals. The program was implemented in three hour sessions, once a week for eight weeks. T-tests were performed following the therapeutic program. Results were that all four subcategories of parent's acceptance capability (respect for children's emotion and emotional expression management, understanding of children's unique temperament, understanding of children's desire for autonomy, and unconditional love for children) showed statistically significant differences between the pre- and post- tests (p< .001). Differences between the pre- and post test on parents' stress approached significance.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and efficiency of balance training program through an interactive video game regimen in people with chronic stroke. Methods : Thirty patients with chronic hemiparetic stroke were recruited. Participants were randomly assigned to either a control group (n=15) or an experimental group (n=15). The control group received the general physical therapy including of strengthening and balance exercise five times a week whereas the experimental group received a program of balance exercise with video game play based on virtual reality as well as the same typical physical therapy. The experimental group received 6 sessions for four weeks. Each session was given 5 minutes. An interactive computer game exercise regimen lasted 30 minutes without rest periods. Outcome measures for weight transfer to paretic side, non-paretic side and sit-squat-speed, sit-squat-length, sit-to-standspeed and sit-to-stand-area for the control group (n=15) and experimental group (n=15) before and after treatment were obtained by using the biorescure. Results: Outcomes demonstrated significant improvement in the experimental group compared with the control group in weight transfer to paretic side, non-paretic side and sit-squat-speed, sit-squat-length, sit-to-stand-speed. No significant training effect was showed in sit-to-stand-area between pretraining and post-training. Conclusion : An interactive computer game exercise based on task oriented approach for balance in chronic stroke were feasible. In other words, This regimen resulted in a greater improvement in dynamic balance for people with chronic stroke.

본 연구는 게임놀이활동이 학령기 지적장애아동의 주의력관련 뇌파, 사회적 기술, 자기 통제력에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구의 대상자는 지적장애로 진단 받은 학령기 아동 6명으로 게임놀이활동을 주 2회, 50분씩 총 12회기 실시하였다. 연구결과 게임놀이활동을 받은 실험군(p<.05)에서 중재 후 주의력 관련 뇌파(알파파, 베타파)와 사회적 기술, 자기 통제력 모두 유의하게 향상되었다. 실험군과 대조군의 집단 간 비교에서는 주의력 관련 뇌파중 알파파와 사회적 기술, 자기 통제력에서 실험군이 대조군보다 의미 있는 변화를 보여주었으며(p<.05), 베타파에서는 집단 간 변화의 차이가 없었다(p>.05). 이처럼 게임놀이활동은 지적장애 아동이 흥미롭게 자발적으로 참여할 수 있다는 점에서 지적장애 아동을 이해하고 문제의 예방과 치료에 보다 효과적으로 활용 될 수 있다.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to examine the effects of recreational therapy (60 minutes * 3times/week * 6weeks) on dementia behavior & affection, and activity of daily living of senile people with dementia. Methods: The subjects were 27 senile people with dementia, 16 experimental group, 11 control group, admitted at K hospital in Chungnam province in quasi-experimental study. The recreational therapy program was developed, based on the recreational program for senile welfare made by athletics science research institute in Chungnam National University(1997). It consisted of rhythm game, ball play, and beanbag game. The data were collected through questionnaires from May 1st to June 10th 2003 and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$-test, Fisher' exact test, and Man Whitney U test. Result: The dementia behavior and affection score was significantly different between the two groups (U=32.5, p=.005). The ADL score was significantly different between the two groups (U=12.0, p=.000). There were significant decrease in dementia behavior & affection, and improvement in ADL in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: Recreational therapy intervention was proved effect in decreasing dementia behavior & affection and promoting ADL of senile people with dementia.

노화로 인한 근력, 균형 및 보행능력의 감소가 노인의 신체활동 저하를 일으킨다. 가상현실운동은 노인의 기능적 균형과 움직임을 회복하는데 사용되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 비디오게임을 이용한 가상현실운동프로그램(VR)이 노인의 근력, 균형 및 보행능력에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. 48명의 노인을 대상으로 VR군(남자 11명, 여자 14명, 나이 68.4세)과 대조군(남자 10명, 여자 13명, 나이 67.6세)으로 무작위 추출하였다. VR군은 가상현실 운동을 8주 동안 주 2회 실시하였으며 대조군은 특별한 운동을 실시하지 않았다. 가상현실운동프로그램은 준비운동(10분), 가상현실프로그램(40분), 정리운동(10분)으로 구성되었으며 가상현실프로그램은 상하지의 움직임뿐만 아니라 시청각피드백을 제공하는 플레이스테이션 아이토이플레이로 수행되었다. 운동 전·후의 변화를 비교하기 위하여 하지의 근력, 힘판을 이용한 정적균형능력, 기능적 팔 뻗기와 일어나 걸어가기 검사로 구성된 동적균형능력과 10m 보행검사와 6분 보행검사로 이루어진 보행능력을 사전, 사후로 측정하였다. VR군은 하지 근력과 정적균형능력, 동적균형능력, 보행능력에서 모두 유의하게 향상되었다(p<.05). 결론적으로 가상현실운동프로그램이 노인의 근력, 균형 및 보행능력의 개선에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
