Abstract

본 연구는 학령기 아스퍼거 장애 아동의 의사소통 상황에서 화용능력을 알아보기 위하여 간접화행 이해능력을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 초등학교 1∼4학년의 아스퍼거 장애 아동 12명과 일반 아동 12명에게 간접화행 이해과제를 실시하였다. 아동은 맥락문장과 함께 제시된 간접화행 문장을 읽고 간접화행이 의미하는 바를 구어로 표현하였다. 아동의 이해가 오반응일 경우, 구체적 행위를 예측할 수 있도록 단서추가 질문을 제시하여 아동의 반응을 기록하였다. 그 결과, 아스퍼거 장애 아동은 일반 아동에 비하여 저조한 간접화행 이해수준을 보였다. 오반응에 대한 단서추가 질문이 제시된 경우, 아스퍼거 장애 아동이 일반아동에 비하여 정반응 향상 폭이 유의미하게 높았지만, 간접화행 이해 총 점수에서는 여전히 일반아동과 비교하여 유의미하게 저조했다. 이러한 결과를 통해 아스퍼거장애 아동은 간접화행 이해능력은 또래 일반아동에 비하여 유의미하게 저조하나, 추가이해 단서를 제공하면 이해능력의 유의미하게 높아짐을 확인하였다. 이를 근거로 아스퍼거 장애 아동의 간접화행 이해와 사회적 의사소통 능력 향상에 대하여 논의하였다.The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability to understand indirect speech acts of Asperger syndrome children. 12 Asperger syndrome children from grade 1 to 4 and age matched 12 general children participated in this study. All children performed an indirect speech acts comprehension task. After the child read context sentence and indirect speech acts sentence, they said the meaning of the indirect sentences. When the child was misunderstood, an the additional clue question was added to predict the concrete behavior and than the child’s reaction was recorded. As a result, children with Asperger syndrome had a lower level of understanding of indirect speech acts than children in general. In the case of the additional clue questions, the children with Asperger syndrome children showed a significantly higher level of positive response compared to the general children, but the score of the understanding of indirect speech acts tasks was still lower than that of the general children. With these results for children with Asperger syndrome is an indirect speech act comprehension is significantly weaker than the general children, but we also confirmed the significantly increased by providing a additional clue question. Based on this results, we discussed the understanding of indirect speech acts with Asperger syndrome children and the improvement of social communication ability of Asperger syndrome children.
