Purpose: This study compared the effects of two six-week school-based intervention programs - a health promotion program using a school forest and a traditional school health promotion program (TSHPP) - on physical and mental health among elementary school students. Methods: A total of 73 students participated in the study: 21 students in the 6-week school forest program conducted in a rural area and 52 students in the 6-week TSHPP conducted in an urban area. Children's health promotion behavior, depression and hyperactivity were measured using a self-report questionnaire. To assess children's physical health, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, and heart rate variability (HRV) were used. Results: Overall, both intervention programs improved participants' physical and mental health. Both programs significantly decreased the body fat percentage; this effect was more prominent in the TSHPP group. Only the TSHPP significantly decreased the participants' BMI after the intervention. The school forest group showed significantly improved relaxation and diminished hyperactivity; the TSHPP group showed significantly improved health promoting behavior and social relationship after the intervention. Comparing the two groups'post-pre difference scores, the two groups significantly differed only in social relationship. Both group showed significantly improved depression after the intervention. Conclusion: These findings support the effectiveness of these 6-week school-based health promotion programs in improving physical and mental health among school-aged children.

목적 : 정신건강증진 프로그램을 정신건강시범학교에 적용하여 그 유용성을 보고자 하였다. 방법 : 제주도교육청 지정 정신건강시범학교인 제주시내 1개 중학교 2, 3학년 학생 748명을 대상으로 Young의 인터넷중독진단척도(IAS), Conner와 Wells의 청소년 집중력 자가보고척도(CASS) 그리고 다면적인성검사(MMPI)를 사용하여 정신건강증진 프로그램 전, 후의 변화를 비교하였다. 정신건강증진 프로그램은 사회정신건강연구소에서 개발한 인성교육 중에서 발췌하여 12시간으로 구성하였다. 자료분석시 프로그램 전후의 차이를 알아보기 위해 paired t-test를 사용하였다. 유의수준은 p<.05수준으로 하였다. 결과 : 프로그램 전후 MMPI상 임상적 수준의 문제를 보인 청소년이 $12.9\%$에서 $11.0\%$로 감소를 보였다. 2학년에서는 감소를 보였으나 3학년에서는 증가하였다. 소척도 점수는 편집증과 경조증 척도에서 통계적으로 유의한 감소를 보였다. IAS에서는 인터넷 과다사용 또는 중독 청소년이 $16.0\%$에서 $6.8\%$로 감소를 보였다. CASS에서는 집중력 문제 위험 청소년이 $22.7\%$에서 $18.3\%$로 감소하였다. IAS와 CASS 점수 모두 통계적으로 유의한 감소를 보였다. IAS 점수의 감소는 임상적 유의도가 중등도였다. 결론 : 정신건강증진 프로그램은 정신건강 문제, 인터넷 중독 위험 또는 집중력문제 위험이 있는 청소년의 감소를 가져왔고 인터넷 중독 예방에 효과가 있었다. 이 결과는 시범학교의 정신건강 증진 프로그램의 효과를 지지하며 일반 학교로의 확대 실시를 제안한다. 향후 프로그램에 맞는 특정화된 평가도구를 사용하여 프로그램의 효과를 재확인하여야 하겠다.
