초록

본 연구에서는 학령전기 자폐스펙트럼장애(ASD) 아동을 대상으로 인지-운동 통합 기반 악기연주 중재를 제공하여 초기 사회기술이 향상하는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상자는 평균 만5.6세의 ASD 아동 총 9명로, 개별로 30분씩 주 2회, 총 12회의 세션에 참여하였다. 중재는 자기 감각 증진 및 자기조절(1단계), 상호작용에 대한 의도 형성(2단계), 상호적 활동에 대한 수용(3단계), 상호적 맥락에서의 움직임 조정(4단계), 공동행동 수행(5단계)의 5단계로 구성되었다. 중재 전후 초기 사회-의사소통 평가 척도(ESCS) 내 과제를 참고해 공동주의 행동 및 상호작용 행동을 측정하였고, 참여 아동의 보호자가 사회적 반응성 척도(SRS-2)를 평정하도록 하였다. 또한, 타인(연구자)에 맞추어 움직임(드럼 연주)의 타이밍을 조절하는지 측정하는 사회적 동기화 과제를 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 참여 ASD 아동은 초기 사회기술에 있어 유의한 향상을 보였고, 사회적 동기화 과제에서도 동기화 반응 속도를 제외한 동기화 정확도 및 지속시간에 있어 유의한 향상이 나타났다. SRS-2 척도에서는 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았는데 이는 장기간 개입이 필요함을 시사한다. ASD 아동의 초기 사회기술 발달에 있어 인지-운동 통합이 중요한 역할을 하는 점을 고려할 때, 본 연구 결과는 인지-운동 통합 기반 악기 연주가 사회적 정보를 인지적으로 처리하고 이를 바탕으로 사회적 맥락에서 움직임을 조정하는 과정의 측면에서 ASD 아동의 사회기술 발달 증진을 위한 효과적인 방안이 될 수 있음을 시사한다.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of cognitive-motor interaction-based instrument playing on the early social skills of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Nine children with ASD, averaging 5.6 years of age, participated in twelve individual sessions lasting 30 minutes each. The intervention comprised five stages: self-regulation, motivation to engage in social interaction, acceptance of a partner in co-playing activities, interpersonal coordination with a partner, and engagement in joint music playing. To evaluate changes in early social skills, joint attention and social interaction behaviors were observed, and the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS-2) was administered pre- and post-intervention. Social synchronization was measured through a dyadic drum task, measuring synchronization accuracy, duration, and timing. Following the intervention, all nine children demonstrated increased early social behaviors, although there were no significant differences in SRS scores. Moreover, synchronized movement improved significantly in accuracy and maintained duration but not in reaction time. This study highlights the significance of recognizing the cognitive-motor interplay as crucial element in facilitating early social skills development in children with ASD.
