어린이도서에 뛰어든 일군의 출판사들은 몇가지 공통된 특징을 지닌다. 그 양에 값하지 못하는 현 아동출판물들의 범람을 더이상 두고 볼 수 없다는 절박한 현실인식에서 출발하고 있고, 책의 형식과 디자인에 세심한 배려를 쏟는다는 점 등이다. 유력한 단행본사의 이같은 출판의지는 전체 아동출판에 새로운 변화를 불러일으키고 있다.

Objective : To identify the effectiveness of a short-term intensive intervention program on the improvement of adaptive response of a child with mixed sensory integration disorder. Method : Four and half years old boy who has been diagnosed of PDD received 40 min of one intervention session and 50 min of 3 intervention sessions. The intervention was a part of the 2008 Sensory Integration Treatment Course developed by the Korean Academy of Sensory Integration (KASI) and all sessions were implemented under supervision by experts. Result : Adaptive responses of the child were enhanced throughout the intervention process in terms of postural response and peer interaction. His oral defensiveness is improved. As the intervention progressed, he exhibited more active movements, louder voice, and coherence within peer group. Conclusion : This case report demonstrates effectiveness of a short-term intensive intervention program in terms of improving adaptive response. To enrich the effectiveness, tt is suggested to educate parents about neurological base of the child's behaviors so the they understand the importance of various sensory experience within play.

In a society undergoing rapid change, modern individuals are facing various stresses, and there's a noticeable increase in mental health treatments for children as well. For the psychological well-being of children, it's crucial to swiftly discern their emotional states. However, this proves challenging as young children often articulate their emotions using limited vocabulary. This paper aims to categorize children's psychological states into four emotions: depression, anxiety, loneliness, and aggression. We propose a method for constructing an emotion dictionary tailored for children based on assessments from child psychology experts.

Korean families have been undergone tremendous changes during the past three decades with societal changes. Korean families become smaller, diverse, and multi-cultural. These family changes challenge child development research. Family is not just an intimate relationship. Family is also a structural environment, a system linking micro and macro system, an institution, and an ideology. Consequently, researchers need to pay attention to various ways family influence child development and take into account family as a whole unit. Researchers are also challenged to make a stance regarding family changes and diversity. Temporality is another important issue in studying how family development and child development interact. In terms of public policy, social services should be developed to cope with the new social risks from family changes and to mitigate a growing developmental gap among the children of families with different economic classes.

결식아동에 대한 부실도시락이 사회적 문제로 지적되며 아동복지에 관한 다양한 문제들이 언론을 통하여 보도되고 있다. 소위 ‘IMF 경제위기’ 이후 사회저변에서 발견되는 빈곤에 대한 지속적인 사회적 관심이 있었지만, 빈곤 아동에 대한 관심은 상대적으로 적었다. 아동에 관한 사회적 이슈는 대부분 교육문제에 한정된 경향이 있었고, 아동의 복지문제는 여전히 가족의 책임으로 가정하는 경향이 존재해 왔다. 하지만, 아동복지는 복지공급(welfare provision)이라는 수동적인 차원만이 아니라 기회균등(equal opportunity)의 발판을 마련한다는 차원에서 매우 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있다. 교육문제가 중요하다는 것은 재차 강조할 필요가 없지만, 교육 여건을 형성하고 가능하게 하는 여건이 허락되지 않는다면 ‘교육을 통한 기회균등’이라는 슬로건은 허상에 지나지 않을 것이다. 이러한 한국적 맥락을 배경으로 2005년 영국 아동정책의 변화를 점검해 보고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine how a creative musical play program affected peer relational skills of children in a community child center. The creative musical play program was implemented with six children in K Community Child Center for twenty (20) sessions. To investigate quantitative change, the Peer Relational Skills Scale and the Revised Social Skills Scale (for teachers) were filled out by children and teachers before and after the program. Also, to investigate musical and behavior changes related with peer relational skills in the creative musical program, the responses of children were categorized from the data of the children's responses according to previously identified sub-factors of peer relational skills. The results show that the participants' average scores presented an improvement in peer relational skills. Qualitative analysis of session logs presented that negative factors which had appeared in early sessions changed to positive traits as the sessions went on. In conclusion, the creative musical play program was effective in increasing peer relational skills of children in the community child center.

The purpose of this study was to examine how a singing program using self-voice monitoring for children with cochlear implants (CI) influences on the intonation and the accuracy of pitch production. To verify and estimate the effectiveness, a program was conducted with participants of 7 prelingual CI users, whose aged between 4 years and 7 years. The program adopted three stages from the self-voice monitoring: Listen, Explore, and Reproduce (LER stage). All participants received 8 singing sessions over 8 weeks, including pre-test, intervention, and post-test. For the pre and post-test, participants' singing of an excerpt of a song "happy birthday" and speaking three assertive sentences and three interrogative sentences were recorded and analyzed in terms of the intonation slopes at the end of the sentences and the melodic contour. From the sentence speeches, we found that the intonation slopes of the interrogative sentences significantly improved as they showed similar patterns with that of the average normal hearing group. Also, in regard to singing, we observed that the melody contour had progressed, as well as the range of pitch production had extended. The positive result from the intervention indicates that the singing program was effective for children with CI to develop the intonation skill and accuracy of pitch production.
