본 연구는 초등학생의 학업스트레스를 감소시키고 학업스트레스에 보다 효율적으로 대처할 수 있는 능력을 키우기 위한 인지행동적 학업스트레스 대처 프로그램을 개발하여 그 효과를 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 경상남도 소재 Y초등학교 24명의 아동을 각각 훈련집단과 통제집단에 12명씩 임의 배정하여, 매회 40분씩 주 2회, 6주간에 걸쳐 총 12회기로 구성된 프로그램을 실시하였으며 프로그램 실시 전후와 종료 4주 후에 학업스트레스 질문지와 학업스트레스 대처방식 질문지를 실시하여 프로그램의 효과를 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 프로그램은 먼저 학업스트레스 유발상황 조사지를 제작하여 초등학생들이 흔히 경험하는 학업과 관련된 스트레스상황을 조사하고, 그러한 상황에서 아동들이 경험하는 스트레스를 인식하도록 도와주어 학업스트레스 유발상황에서 나타나는 인지적 왜곡을 수정하여 학업스트레스에 적절하게 대처하는 방법에 초점을 두고 구성하였다. 또한 국가 청소년 위원회에서 위기청소년을 위해 개발한 인지행동 집단상담 프로그램과 학업스트레스를 조절하는데 사용된 기존의 프로그램들을 초등학생에게 적용 가능한 형태로 수정하였다. 본 연구의 결과 인지행동적 학업스트레스 대처훈련은 첫째, 아동들이 학업스트레스 유발상황에서 경험하는 성적, 수업과 공부 및 과제관련 스트레스를 감소시키고 그 효과를 지속시키는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 학업스트레스에 대한 대처방식을 유의미하게 변화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 대처방식 중 소극적-회피적 대처와 도움추구적 대처는 유의미하게 변화시키는 것으로 나타났으나 적극적 대처에 미치는 효과는 다소 제한적인 것으로 나타났다.
