본 연구의 목적은 배려증진프로그램과 장애이해교육이 초등학생의 장애수용태도와 이타행동에 미치는 효과를 비교하는 것이다. 이를 위해 한 초등학교 내에서 3학급을 무선표집하여, 실험집단에는 배려증진프로그램과 장애이해교육을 실시하고, 어떤 교육도 제공하지 않는 통제집단을 구성한 후 장애수용태도와 이타행동을 사전, 사후 검사하여 비교하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 배려증진프로그램과 장애이해교육은 유사하게 초등학생의 장애수용태도를 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 배려증진프로그램과 장애이해교육은 초등학생의 이타행동을 전반적으로 향상시키지는 않았으나, 이타행동의 하위 요소인 경도 일탈된 행위에 대한 반응에서는 통제 집단보다 더 나은 결과를 나타냈다.
