Impact of Ganggangsullae on Self-Awareness in Hearing Impaired Adolescents with Amplification Devices

Objective: Dance improves artistic perfection by continuously practicing many physical activities. Unfortunately, dynamic physical activity may cause inconvenience to the hearing-impaired adolescents who use amplifiers. The aim of this study is to explore changes in self-awareness of hearing loss adolescents who use an amplifier to learn Ganggangsullae, a traditional Korean folk art. Method: 6-girl(14.7±2.07) participated who wear hearing aids and/or cochlear implants. 2 of them had dance experience, 2 of them have aerobic experience, and the other 2 were inexperienced. Hearing handicap inventory for adult (HHIA) was used to measure the degree of self-awareness of hearing loss. Results: The mean HHIA score before and after Ganggangsullae decreased by 0.0267 from 0.573±0.992 to 0.547±1.034. In social adjustment, it decreased by 0.111 from 0.611±1.042 to 0.5±0.993, and in emotional adjustment, it increased by 0.0513 points from 0.538±0.949 to 0.59±1.074. In case of no experience, social adjustment increased by 0.167, and emotional adjustment by 0.308, respectively. In the case of dance experience, social adjustment increased by 0.083, emotional adjustment decreased by 0.231. In the case of aerobics, social adjustment decreased by 0.586, and emotional adjustment increased by 0.077. Conclusion: Despite many physical activities for artistic perfection, Ganggangsullae maintained HHIA stabilization.
