뇌성마비아의 수화무용중심·창작무용활동과 기분 상태

The Effect of Sign-Language-Based Choreographed Dance Activities on the Mood Status of the person with Cerebral-Palsy

본 연구는 뇌성마비인에게 수화무용중심·창작무용활동 프로그램을 실행한 전/후 기분상태에 어떠한 변화가 오는지를 밝혀 뇌성마비인의 지속적인 신체 발달의 향상에 기여하고 긍정적인 가치관을 형성하는데 도움이 되고자 하는데 의의를 두고 대구광역시 소재의 S재활원에서 생활하는 경도 뇌성마비인 20명을 대상으로 20주간 주당 1회, 1회기당 1시간씩 1단계에서 4단계로 구성된 수화무용중심·창작무용프로그램을 실시하였다. 각 피험자들은 20주간의 무용 전·후 기분상태를 기분상태 질문지(POMS)로 검사하였다. 연구결과에 따른 결론은 프로그램 실시가 1단계전/후, 2단계전/후, 3단계전/후, 4단계전/후 뇌성마비인의 전/후의 총 기분동요점수가 낮아졌으며 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 즉, 수화무용중심·창작무용활동이 뇌성마비인의 긴장감, 우울감, 분노감, 피로감, 혼돈감의 내적인 요소를 감소시킬 뿐만 아니라 활력감, 자긍심을 높여주는 효과가 나타났다.

This study reviews how the sign-language-based (SLB) choreographed dance activities (CDA) programs will effect on the possible change of the mood states of the person with cerebral palsy (PCP) prior to and after conducting the dance training programs of the SLB-CDA. It also intends to help enhance the PCP s sustained physical development and thus contribute to developing their positive value system of life as well. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sign-language-based choreographed dance activities on the mood status of the person with Cerebral Palsy. The results of this study were as follows; First, the implementation of the phase Ⅰ program showed a low point in terms of total mood disturbance and fluctuation, but it showed some differences of statistical significance. Since this total mood disturbance showed difference of statistical significance in the five-factor scale of negative emotions such as tension, depression, anger, fatigue-ness, and confusion, dance stretching activities show positive change on the mood status by helping the students relax their body. Second, the implementation of resulted in low point of total mood fluctuation scale before and after imitative dance activities of person with cerebralpalsy( PCP) showing a statistical significance. The statistical significance, which is shown on the total mood disturbance scale with five factors such as tension, depression, anger, fatigue-ness, and confusion, tells us that imitative dance activities make positive mood change through imitations from and interactions with other members. Third, the implementation of phase Ⅲ showed relatively low points in the total mood disturbance before and after the PCP s experiencing verbal rhythm sensitivity with some statistical significance. The resulting statistical significance on each of the five factor scale of tension, depression, anger, fatigue-ness, and confusion proves that the verbal rhythm sensitivity makes positive mood changes for the cerebral-palsied children. Fourth, the phase Ⅳ implementation shows relatively low points in the PCP s total mood fluctuation before and after singing sons in the sign-language chorus activities while showing some difference of statistical significance. The means that singing activities in the sign-language chorus leads to making positive mood changes on the CPC s total mood disturbance of five factors of tension, depression, anger, fatigue-ness, and confusion. Finally, the sign-language-based (SLB) choreographed dance activities (CDA) program not only has contributed to helping the person with cerebral-palsy (PCP) to alleviate negative emotions such as tension, depression, anger, anxiety, fatigue-ness, and/or confusion, but it also has played an important role of enhancing good sense of self-esteem and vitality of each participant.
