The goals of this study were to examine how children's recognition of various emotions, emotion expression, and social interactions among their peers differed according to their attachment styles. A total of 65 three to five years old children completed both attachment story-stem doll plays and a standard emotion recognition task. Trained observers documented children's valence of emotion expression and social interactions among their peers in the classroom. Consistent with attachment theory, children who were categorized as secure in the doll play were more likely to express positive emotions than children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play. Children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play were more likely to express neutral emotions among their peers than children who were categorized as secure and anxious in the doll play. The findings of this study contribute to the general attachment literature by documenting how attachment security plays a crucial role in having positive emotions in ordinary situations. It does so by also demonstrating how different attachment styles are associated with children's qualitatively different patterns of emotion processing, especially in terms of their expression of emotions.

본 연구는 전래동요에 기초한 음악놀이활동이 유아의 국악능력과 국악흥미도, 놀이성에 미치는 영향이 어떠한가를 분석해보는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 W시에 위치한 어린이집의 만 5세 두 학급의 유아 28명을 선정하여, 실험집단을 대상으로 전래동요에 기초한 음악놀이활동을 적용하였으며, 비교집단에는 가창 중심의 전래동요 지도와 누리과정에 기초한 주제 중심의 음악활동을 적용하였다. 수집된 자료를 토대로 두집단의 사전검사 점수를 공변인으로 한 공변량분석을 실시하였으며 분석결과, 전래동요에 기초한 음악놀이활동이 유아의 국악능력과 국악흥미도, 놀이성을 통계적으로 유의하게 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 연구의 결과는 음악놀이가 전래동요에 내재한 놀이성과 연계되어 국악교육을 위한 효과적인 교수방법으로 적용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

The two major theoretical frameworks that have informed research on symbolic play and cognitive development were reviewed. Piaget and Vygotsky had different views of the role of symbolic play in children's development. For Piaget, play is primarily an assimilative activity; that is, in play, children modify reality to fit their existent cognitive schema and desires. In his view, play does not facilitate development, but it is used to consolidate existent concepts. For Vygotsky, play is a precursor to symbolization and is a leading factor in development. Particularly the lack of a sociocultural dimension in Piaget's theory brought about the influence of Vygotsky, for whom this dimension is central. However, the research yielded so far has not fully investigated the wider sociocultural elements that define and inform the play context. This article concludes by suggesting an approach to children's play that is directed by a proper estimation of the interaction between its cognitive, emotional, and sociocultural dimensions.

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.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the effect of the national preschool curriculum on children's development in Korea, focusing on teachers' daily practice. By comparing the effect of the teachers' curriculum practice to that of quantitatively measured free play, it tried to add practical implications beyond the statistical significance. Methods: Participants were 512 three-year-old children who participated in the Panel Study of Korean Children and their teachers. National curriculum practice and free play time at the age of three was put in the hierarchical linear regression models to discover children's developmental outcomes at the age of four, in domains of language, cognitive development, and social development. Results: Results demonstrated the significant positive influence of national curriculum practice on every domain of developmental outcomes. However, no facilitative influence of free play time was observed. Conclusion/Implications: The importance of teachers' practice of the national curriculum was emphasized. It was implied that the quantity of free play time itself did not assure the sound development of children. Policy implications were discussed regarding teacher practice and education.

본 연구는 반응성 애착 장애아와 정상아의 의사소통 및 모자 상호작용 유형을 비교하기 위해 반응성 애착 장애아와 정상아 각 12명씩 그리고 그들의 어머니가 참석했다. 어머니와 아동은 이혜련 신경정신과 의원의 놀이치료실에 내원하여 가정에서 하듯이 놀이하라는 지시를 받고 15분간의 자유놀이를 하였고 이를 녹화하였다. 녹화된 테이프를 전사자료로 작성하여 의사소통 유형을 분석하였으며 상호작용 유형은 시간 표집 방법으로 분석하여 빈도자료를 얻었다. 이 자료는 t-검증 ,상관계수로 통계처리 되었다. 그 결과는 다음과 같았다. 1) 두 집단 아동의 비사소통 유형에서는 '수용적 발어', '정보요구', '기술', '자기기술'에서 의미있는 차이가 있었다. 2) 두 집단 어머니의 의사소통 유형에서는 '수용적 발어', '명명하기'에서 의미있는 차이가 있었다. 3) 두 집단의 상호작용 유형에서는 반응성 애착 장애아와 그들의 어머니 모두가 먼저 상호작용을시작하는 빈도가 적었고, 아동의 혼자놀이는 더 많았으며 혼자놀이 시의 어머니의 반응은 통제와 무반응이 정상아 집단보다 많았다. 4) 두 집단 아동과 어머니의 의사소통 유형과 상호작용 유형에서 의미있는 차이를 보였던 항목들간에 높은 상관을 보였는데 아동의 '수용적 발어', '정보요구', '기술'. '자기기술'은 '상호작용시작'과 정적인 상관을 보였으며 '혼자놀이', '통제', '무반응'과는 부적상관을 보였다.
