Abstract

The aims of this study were to consist of the eccentric viewing training software based on Korean and to examine the effects on reading speed. The program was used the Korean stimuli by rapid serial visual presentation. Single-subject A-B-A' research design for 2 normally-sighted young adults was used to examine the effect. The reading speed data on short-sentence of participants showed a statistically significant result, as both data from the intervention period and post-training baseline period deviated more than 2 standard deviations from the pre-training baseline period. Through this study, we suggested that eccentric viewing training software based on Korean characters stimulation would allow clinician in Korea to improve reading skills of low vision individuals with central scotomas.

본 연구는 중심부 암점 환자에게 적용하기 위한 한글기반 중심외보기 훈련 소프트웨어를 구성하고, 정안인을 대상으로 프로그램의 효과성을 파악하고자 하였다. 한글기반 중심외보기 훈련 소프트웨어는 신속순차시각제시를 이용한 한글자극으로 구성하였다. ABA 설계(ABA design) 개별실험연구설계를 위해 정안인 남자 대학생 2명에게 훈련 전후 기초선 각 3회기, 훈련은 3주간 8회기를 시행하고, 매회기 단문읽기속도를 측정하였다. 중심외보기 훈련 프로그램은 단어읽기 훈련 3단계와 문장읽기 훈련 2단계, 총 5단계로 구성하였다. 구성된 프로그램 훈련 결과, 단문읽기속도는 훈련전보다 훈련 후 2표준편차 이상 증가하였음을 나타냈다. 본 연구를 통하여 한글기반의 체계적인 중심외보기 훈련 소프트웨어를 구성하여 국내 임상 현장에서 적용할 근거를 마련하였고, 사전연구를 통하여 중심외보기 훈련의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.
