초록

본 연구는 초등학생 대상으로 학생들의 자존감과 주의집중력에 미치는 마음빼기명상 프로그램의 효과를 확인하는데 그 목적이 있다. 2021년 1학기에 A중도시 소재 B초등학교 6학년 2개 학급을 실험군으로, A시 소재 C초등학교 6학년 2개 학급을 대조군으로 구성하여, 교육부 인증 인성교육 프로그램인 '스스로 깨닫는 인성교육 마음빼기명상 교실'을 학교의 요청에 맞게 재구성한 프로그램으로 실시하였다. 사전검사와 사후검사에 모두 참여한 실험군 46명, 대조군 41명의 자료를 분석에 이용하였다. 대조군에 비해 실험군은 자아존중감이 명상 후 증가하는 양상을 보였으나 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 반면 대조군에 비해 실험군의 주의집중력은 명상 후 유의하게 향상되었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 아동의 주의집중을 위한 방법으로 마음빼기명상을 추천할 수 있을 것이다. 더불어, 초등학생의 자아존중감과 주의력 향상을 위해 명상 중재 기간과 횟수를 늘린 반복 연구와, 실제적인 능력을 평가할 수 있는 척도로 프로그램의 효과를 측정한 연구 및 명상의 효과가 어느정도 지속되는가를 확인하는 연구가 이뤄지기를 제언한다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a True Self meditation program on self-esteem and attention in elementary school students. In the first semester of 2021, two 6th grade classes at B elementary School in A city participated as the experimental group and two 6th grade classes at C elementary School in A city participated as the control group. Data from 46 students in the experimental group and 41 students in the control group who participated in both the pretest and posttest were used for analysis. Compared to the control group, the experimental group showed an increase in self-esteem after meditation, but the difference was not significant. On the other hand, the experimental group's attention improved significantly after meditation compared to that of the control group. Based on these results, True Self meditation can be recommended as a method to improve children's attention. In addition, we recommend replication studies that increase the duration and frequency of meditation interventions to improve self-esteem and attention in elementary school children, studies that measure the effectiveness of the program on measures of practical ability, and studies that determine the extent to which the effects of meditation are sustained.
