Abstract

The purpose of the study is to verify whether literature therapy program for prevention of smartphone addiction is effective for adolescents. The subjects of this study were 150 students of J City, K middle school. After completing the program, they were conducted post-test for both the experimental and control groups. The study found that the program was effective in mitigating smartphone addiction but not in reducing the directed life problem. It was also found to be effective in reducing tolerance and loss of control and problems of withdrawal and emotional experience. The study suggests that institutional arrangements are needed for linking with related organizations in the region because it is difficult to effectively prevent the increasing problem of smartphone addiction unless an adolescents program for youth is linked to the school. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct parent education for prevention of smartphone addiction in computer curriculum of school subjects.

본 연구의 목적은 스마트폰 중독 예방을 위한 문학치료 프로그램이 청소년에게 효과적인지를 검증하는데 있다. 연구대상은 J시 K중학교 전체 학생 150명을 대상으로 스마트폰 중독 척도검사를 실시하였으며, 프로그램을 완성한 후 스마트폰 중독 검사지로 실험, 통제집단 모두에게 사후검사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 이 프로그램은 스마트폰 중독을 완화시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으나, 지향적 생활 문제를 감소시키는데 효과적이지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 내성과 통제력상실 문제와 금단과 정서경험문제를 감소시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과 제언은 청소년을 위한 집단프로그램이 학교와의 연계통로가 이루어지지 않는다면 날로 증가하는 스마트폰 중독의 문제를 효과적으로 예방하기 어렵기 때문에 지역 내 관련기관과의 연계를 위한 제도적 장치가 요구된다. 따라서 학교 교과목 중 컴퓨터 교과 과정 속에 스마트폰 중독 예방을 위한 부모교육을 실시할 필요가 있다.
