Purpose : There is a lack of research on this field in the Republic of Korea, especially those that have seen the effect of interaction between siblings through sensory integration therapy (SIT). Therefore, this study sought to find out the effectiveness of SIT with siblings through the Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale (RKPPS) and playtime. Methods : The experimental group consisted of 10 disabled children, and 10 normal siblings of the disabilities joined the program as a helper. In addition, 10 children with disabilities conducted the intervention as a control group. The difference between the experimental group and the control group is whether they participate with their sibling or not during the intervention period. The present study was conducted a SIT for 40 minutes per week for the experimental and the control group and then had 10 minutes of an interview with the parents of children with disabilities. A total of 10 programs were implemented for 10 weeks. Results : The experimental group showed statistically significant differences in space management, material management, pretense/symbolic, participation, and total scores. The control group showed significant differences between pre and post results in the participation and the total scores. The experimental group and the control group showed significant differences in the pre-post comparison results. The comparison of post-intervention between both groups of the RKPPS and playtime results showed a statistically significant increase in the experimental group. Conclusion : The sibling SIT showed better play level and time than the individual therapy. However, comparisons before and after the intervention in the level of play showed significant results only in participation and total scores in the control group. Clinically, it is recommended to make good use of sibling relationships when applying SIT, and if that is not possible, continuous observation is needed that children who received treatment become familiar with the environment in which they can be treated.

게임 플레이를 위한 행동 주체인 에이전트는 게임 만족도를 높일 수 있는 중요한 요소이다. 하지만 다양한 게임 난이도와 게임 환경, 여러 플레이어를 위한 게임 에이전트 개발에는 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하다. 또한 캐릭터 추가나 업데이트와 같은 게임 환경 변화가 일어나면 새로운 게임 에이전트의 개발이 필요하고, 개발 난이도는 점차 높아진다는 단점이 존재한다. 이와 함께 다양한 플레이어의 수준에 맞는 세분화된 게임 에이전트 역시 중요하다. 단순히 강한 게임 에이전트보다는 세분화된 수준의 게임 플레이가 가능한 게임 에이전트가 활용성이 높고, 플레이어에 대한 만족도를 높일 수 있기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 카드형 대전 게임을 대상으로 빠른 게임 에이전트 학습과 세분화된 플레이 수준 조절이 가능한 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 행동 구성에 대한 높은 자유도와 멀티 에이전트 환경에서의 빠른 학습을 위해 정책(Policy) 기반 분산형 강화학습 방법 중 하나인 IMPALA를 적용한다. 세분화된 플레이 수준 조절은 Temperature-Softmax를 통해 얻은 행동별 확률 값의 샘플링을 통해 수행한다. 논문에서는 Temperature 값의 증가에 따라 게임 에이전트의 플레이 수준이 낮아지는 결과와 이 수치를 다변화하여 손쉽게 다양한 플레이 수준 조절이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Purpose : In this study, we would like to apply oral sensory play therapy program to children with cerebral palsy who have sensitive oral senses to find out the effect on oral sensory ability, oral function, performance ability and sociality. Methods : The subjects of this study were 20 children diagnosed with cerebral palsy, and 10 experimental groups and 10 control groups. Oral sensory play therapy programs, including oral sensory programs, were conducted in the experimental group, while only oral sensory programs were conducted in the control group. Oral Sensory Treatment Level was used to identify the sensory profile and the overall oral function of the oral function was used, and the performance and satisfaction of Canadian occupational performance measure (COPM) were examined to find out the performance of the work, and social skills were examined for social skills (SMS). Results : The level of oral sensory treatment, overall oral function, work performance and sociality all increased significantly in the experimental group, but the oral sense and oral function in the control group were significantly increased, but not significantly in the case of work performance and sociality. Conclusion : Through this study, we confirmed that oral sensory play therapy program is an effective arbitration method for oral sensation, oral function, work performance and social enhancement of children with cerebral palsy. Based on the results of this study, the study of arbitration protocols for children with cerebral palsy with oral sensory problems will have to be more active.

This study examined the effects of fathers' play participation on young children's social competence and self-regulation. The subjects consisted of 180 fathers with children at ages between 4-7 years old from 2 preschools and 3 kindergartens located in Y city in Gyeonggi province. The analyses used for this study included the t-test and multiple regression analysis. The main findings are as follows. First, fathers' play participation was not different by sociodemographic characteristics such as fathers' age, educational level, and job. Second, fathers' participation in functional play, role play, and constructive play was positively related to social activator, reassurance, and cooperation among subscales on children's social competence. Also, fathers' participation in games was negatively related to reassurance among children and positively related to hypersensitivity among children. Third, fathers' participation in role play and functional play was positively related to children's self-monitoring and self-control. These findings suggest emphasizing fathers' play participation to improve children's social competence and children's self-regulation, and it can be helpful to underline fathers' education and to develop programs for fathers' play.

Purpose: This study was done to analyze children's play during hospitalization. Method: Data were collected from 36 play situations of hospitalized children, ages 2 to 6, hospitalized at 4 general hospitals, one in each city, Seoul, Suwon, Daejeon and Daegu. All observations were made in pediatric units during free-play periods. Each child was observed for 5 minutes at each observation and observed three times at each play session. Results: Of the children, 83.3% played on the bed. Play partners were mainly mothers. While 75.0% of children actively took part in play activity and 70.0% played with joy, 63.9% of play partners were more passive in the play. The most frequent play material was a small toy. The level of play was early stage of social and cognitive play, and dramatic play was observed in a few children over the age of 3 years. The play activities were conversional play, reflections of therapeutic procedures, imagination, and exploratory play. In the conversional play, children converted hospital equipments into play materials. Conclusion: It is recommended that health care team members should pay attention and actively participate in play of hospitalized children in order to help them have some control over the stress of the situation.

Endothelin-1, which is a peptide originally isolated from cultured porcine aortic cell, has been found to play a crucial role in potentiating the vasoconstriction mitogenesis, and chemotaxis. In the present study, we examined the level of endothelin-1 in the brain, spinal cord and blood from rat with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis(EAE). At the peak stage of EAE(grade 3), endothelin-1 level in the spinal cord of rat with EAE increased two folds as compared with that of sham-treated rats, and subsequently decreased to the level of control at the recovery stage. In the endothelin-1 immunocytochemistry, endothelin-1 immunopositive cells and ED-1, macrophage marker immunopositive cells observed in the spinal cord of peak stage(grade 3). These Findings suggest that endothelin-1 play the important role in progression of EAE.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the influences of household chaos on self-control of young children and to investigate whether teachers' limit-setting styles had moderating effects. Methods: The participants were 184 children (83 boys and 101 girls), at age 3 -5, their mothers and teachers working at daycare centers located in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and hierarchical regression. Moderating effects were examined using the Mplus8.0 program. Results: The results indicated that household chaos as well as teacher's permissive and logical limit-setting styles had significant effects on self-control of preschoolers. The lower the level of household chaos was, the higher the level of self-control of preschoolers was. The level of self-control was more likely to be high when teachers used logical limit-setting with detailed explanation to children whereas it was lower when they used more permissive limit-setting. In addition, teachers' logical limit-setting moderated the relation between household chaos and self-control of preschoolers. That is, the effects of household chaos on preschoolers' self-control were mitigated when the level of logical limit-setting was high compared to when it was low. Conclusion/Implications: The results suggested that both household chaos and teachers' limit-setting styles play important roles in increasing self-control of preschoolers.
