기초운동기술 프로그램 참여가 유아의 자기효능감과 사회적 능력에 미치는 효과

초록

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of participation in basic motor skill programs on children’s self-efficacy and social competence. Jun’s physical education program for children was conducted in 46 children in experimental group, and a childhood education institute’s own program was conducted in 48 children in control group. Also, to compare scores of self-efficacy and social competence of each group before and after the programs, the independent sample t-test and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were performed, and the following results were obtained. First, the basic motor skill program for children had effects on self-efficacy and its sub-domains including physical, cognitive, social and emotional domains. Second, the basic motor skill program for children showed effectiveness in improving children’s social competence and its sub-factors including social activity, stability, cooperativeness, autonomy, adaptability, and leadership. The children in experimental group, particularly, generally exhibited higher degree of improvement in self-efficacy and social competence than those in control group. Hence, it was found that the basic motor skill program could facilitate children’s self-efficacy and social competence more effectively than the child education institute’s own physical education program did. These results implied that it is necessary to improve conditions of education for dissemination of systemic children’s physical activity programs and invigoration and change the way of dealing with these programs.
