Abstract

Objective : This study was designed to determine the effects of sensory integration group therapy with regard to the sensory processing, peer interactions, and task performance, and whether they continue. Methods : Twelve children aged 7 to 13 years enrolled in this study for 60 minutes per session, three times a week for 8 weeks. Sensory integration group therapy consisted of a total of 24 activities that included sensory processing, play skills, and interaction with peers. Short Sensory Profile was used to select subjects. In order to measure the outcome, we used the Short Sensory Profile, Penn Interactive Peer Play Scale and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure at pre, post, and follow-up evaluations. The results were analyzed by means of repeated measures analysis, and the pre-test, post-test, and follow-up tests were compared using the Wilcoxon matched-pair signed rank test. Results : After sensory integration group therapy, sensory processing, peer interaction, and task performance significantly improved(p<.05). In addition, we confirmed that the effects of treatment were maintained in the 4 weeks follow-up test. Conclusion : Sensory integration group therapy is an effective way of mediating effects not only by improving sensory processing skills, but also by providing imitation and training in groups for children in need of peer interaction and linking them to daily life.

목적 : 본 연구는 그룹감각통합치료가 지적장애아동의 감각처리와 또래상호작용, 과제수행에 미치는 영향과 그 효과의 지속여부를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 본 연구는 만 7세 이상 13세 미만의 아동 12명을 대상으로 주 3회 60분씩 8주 동안 진행하였다. 그룹감각통합치료는 감각처리와 놀이기술, 또래와의 상호작용이 포함된 총 24가지 주제에 맞는 활동으로 구성되었으며, 대상자를 선별하기 위하여 단축감각프로파일을 사용하였다. 결과를 측정하기 위하여 단축감각프로파일과 또래놀이 상호작용 평점척도, 캐나다 작업수행 측정을 사용하여 대상자의 감각처리와 또래상호작용, 과제수행의 사전 사후 추적 평가를 실시하였다. 측정 결과는 반복측정 분산분석을 사용하여 사전 사후 추적조사의 평균 점수 차이를 분석하였고, 윌콕슨 순위검정을 사용하여 사전 사후 추적조사의 변화의 차이를 비교하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 그룹감각통합치료 중재 이후 대상자들의 감각처리와 또래상호작용, 과제수행에 유의한 향상을 보였다(p<.05). 4주후 실시한 추적조사에서 치료의 효과가 유지되는 것을 확인하였다. 결론 : 그룹감각통합치료는 감각처리능력의 증진뿐만 아니라, 또래상호작용이 필요한 학령기 아동들에게 모방과 그룹 안에서의 연습을 제공하고, 일상생활까지 그 효과를 연결할 수 있는 효과적인 중재방법이다.
