장난감 중심 상호작용 상황에서 보이는 영아－어머니의 주도성과 반응성 = Responsiveness and initiative through infant-mother interaction in the social toy play

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study examined the responsiveness and the initiative of Korean infant and mother as aspects of social competence which are showed through infant-mother interaction in social toy play. Ninety one infant-mother dyads(mean=6.95 months) were videotaped in free play with various toys at the play setting of the laboratory. Responsiveness and initiative of each infant and his/her mother were coded with various levels in 15 seconds intervals and analyzed using cluster analysis and profile analysis. In results, 3 types of group were classified by maternal initiative types. And, the group of mothers who initiate to redirect and to maintain their infants' attention could not lead to much more high level response of infants than non-redirecting group of mothers. This phenomenon is either to the group of mothers who initiate to redirect and to extend their infants' attention. Although infants' initiative were not different through maternal initiative types, maternal responsiveness were significantly different through maternal initiative types. Non-directing group of mothers show significantly less ignoring responses than other groups of mothers. With the results we suggested that maternal responsiveness is more valuable to social competence at early infancy as well as later.

본 연구는 장난감 중심의 놀이상황을 통하여 한국의 6, 7개월 영아-어머니들 간의 사회적 상호작용에서 보이는 주도성과 반응성이 영아-어머니 양자에서 어떠한 유형으로 나타나며, 쌍방간에 어떠한 관련성을 맺고 있는가를 알아보고자 하였다. 현재 종단연구에 참여중인 영아-어머니 91쌍이 본 연구의 대상이 되었으며, 대학 내 준비된 실험실에서 이루어진 장난감 중심 자유놀이 상황을 비디오로 녹화하여 영아와 어머니의 주도성과 반응성을 측정하였다. 연구결과 어머니가 영아의 주의를 전환시키기 위하여 사용하는 책략과 개입의 정도에 의하여 구분된 어머니의 주도행동 유형에 따라 영아의 반응성 유형에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 그러나 영아가 스스로 나타내는 주도적 행동의 유형과 전반적인 주도성의 차이는 어머니의 주도행동에 따라 유의한 차이가 없었다. 어머니의 주도행동유형은 영아의 반응성뿐만이 아니라 어머니 자신이 영아에게 나타내는 반응성유형과 유의한 관련성이 있었다. 이러한 결과들을 종합하여 본 연구에서는 영아기 초기에도 어머니의 적극적인 개입보다는 반응성이 영아의 사회적 능력에 유의미한 영향력을 행사함을 제안하였다.
