한부모가정 유아자녀의 문제행동 및 부모역할 개선을 위한 부모 - 자녀 미술치료 사례연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of parent-child art therapy for the treatment of problem behavior in preschool children from single parent families and to improve parenting roles. The subjects were part of two single-parent families living in a large metropolitan area, a father-child pair (5-year-old child) and a mother-child pair (5-year-old child). Each pair came from a family of four that was having difficulty as a result of the child’s behavior. In order to examine the effects and content of the treatment, each pair of participants attended one 90-minute session per week for a total of 10 sessions. Preand post-intervention data was collected from each pair using the CBCL 1.5-5 (Oh & Kim, 2009) and parenting scale(Kim, E. J. et al., 2010), and was analyzed according to the case study protocol. The results of this study are as follows. Overall, the children’s problem behavior showed improvement. Parenting practices in both the mother-child and father-child pairs also changed positively. Data analysis showed that the problem etiology, course of treatment, and changes were similar between the two groups. However, More research is needed to determine the effectiveness of parent child art therapy for improving problematic behavior in children and for improving parenting practices.
