Abstract

The survey is designed to provide fundamental data for assessing effects of calligraphy therapy program. An opened questionnaire asking psychological and physical experiences (3 advantages and 3 disadvantages) was given to 150 persons practicing calligraphy. Collected data were categorized into 10 psychological advantages (435 items), 6 psychological disadvantages (129 items), 9 physical advantages (302 items), and 7 physical disadvantages (150 items). Those subjective experiences were multidisciplinarily interpreted in terms of the mental and physical health and the humanistic education. A new structured assessing tool which will be developed based on the findings from the study may contribute in activating the calligraphy therapy program.

본 연구는 서예 활동에서 인식된 주관적 경험을 분석하여 서예치료 프로그램의 효과를 검증할 평가 도구 개발을 위한 기초 자료를 제공하기 위해 수행되었다. 서예활동을 하고 있는 150명을 대상으로 개방형 질문지에 서예의 심리적 및 신체적 장, 단점을 최대 3가지씩 적게 하였다. 수집된 자료를 의미에 따라 범주화하였고, 각 범주별로 빈도 분석을 실시하였다. 심리적 장점 435개 항목은 10개의 범주, 단점 129개의 항목은 6개의 범주, 신체적 장점 302개의 항목은 9개의 범주, 단점 150개의 항목은 7개의 범주로 나뉘었다. 서예에 대한 주관적 경험은 융복합적 관점(정신 건강, 신체 건강, 그리고 인성 교육)에서 해석되었다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 추후 연구에서 서예의 특성을 제대로 반영하는 구조화된 평가 도구를 개발한다면 서예치료의 활성화에 크게 기여할 것이다.
