유아 기질과 가족기능이 유아 놀이행동에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate how temperament and family functioning affect the play behavior of preschool children.
 Methods The study participants included a total of 238 mothers of young children from U-city. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS program, including Pearson's r-correlation and stepwise regression analyses.
 Results Results showed a positive correlation between kindergarten children's social play behavior, temperament (sociability and activity), and family functioning (adaptability and cohesion). Furthermore, negative correlations were found between kindergarten children's independent play behavior, temperament (activity), and family functioning (cohesion). Additionally, negative correlations were identified between preschool children's non-play behavior, temperament (sociability and activity), and family functioning (adaptability and cohesion). In terms of prediction, preschool children's social play was predicted by temperament sociability and solidarity. Non-play was predicted by temperament sociability, and then independent play was predicted by temperament activity..
 Conclusions Socialization of preschool children is influenced by individual and social variables, suggesting that environmental changes and individual interventions are needed to promote infant socialization. Furthermore, we conclude that independent play and non-play are influenced by individual variables and require further research.
