다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The aim of this study is an attempt to understand children more effectively through the relationship between comprehension of pictorial humor and creativity in early childhood. Children's explanation of pictorial humor was analysed to ascertain : (1) the effect of age on the children's explanation of pictorial humor stimuli, (2) the effect of age on the children's appreciation of pictorial humor stimuli, (3) the rating of creativity on children's explanation of pictorial humor and (4) the rating of creativity on children's appreciation of pictorial humor. For this purpose, the explanation of pictorial humor and the appreciation of pictorial humor and integrated creativity were tested.
Three major themes were used by Kang(1982). They consisted of themes such as taboo, aggression and sophistication. These themes were used in the current study to construct three pairs of drawings as humor stimuli. The children's explanations of pictorial humor were classified into four categories originally developed by Brown (1993). To measure creativity, the Integrated Creativity Test for four to six-year-old Korean Children developed by Chun (1995) was used.
The subjects of this experiment were 90 four to six-year-old children who attended Kindergartens in Seoul and Pundang. The children were individually given the Humor Stimuli and Creativity Test. The analysis of data employed a oneway ANOVA and the Duncan test significance through SPSS/PC+.
The results and conclusions of this study are as follows.
1) There were partly significant age differences in the rating of children's explanation of pictorial humor. That is, the six-year-old group showed higher explanation levels than the four-year-old and the five-year-old groups.
2)There were no significant age differences in the rating of children's appreciation of pictorial humor. That is, the higher old age group didn't show higher appreciation levels than lower old age groups.
3) There were significant differences in the explanation levels of pictorial humor in the rating of creativity. That is, the higher explanation levels of pictorial humor group ?? showed higher creativity scores than the lower explanation levels of pictorial humor group children.
4) There were no significant differences in the appreciation levels of pictorial humor in the rating of creativity. That is, the higher appreciation levels of pictorial humor group children didn't show higher creativity scores than the lower appreciation levels of pictorial humor group children.
The above-mentioned findings were interpreted and discussed in terms of theoretical background and previous research findings. Some suggestions were presented for further study.
