국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 협동적 집단 원게임 활동이 유아의 사회적 능력에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 생활주제에 적합하고 Orlick의 협동구조 게임의 4가지 개념(협동, 수용, 참여, 흥미)이 포함되며 유아들의 발달 수준이 반영될 수 있도록 고안한 16가지의 활동을 8주간 실시하였다. 연구 결과 협동적 집단 원게임 활동은 유아의 사회적 능력 전체에 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났으나 유아의 사회적 능력 구성요인 중 주도성과 협조성에 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
