An Exploratory Study on Sandplay Therapy for Enhancing School Adaptation of Elementary School Students: A Focus on Domestic Research Since 2010

This study examines the implementation of Sandplay Therapy in schools and conducts a comprehensive analysis of 25 domestic studies to explore its effects on the school adaptation for elementary school students. Our findings reveal that Sandplay Therapy, when applied to this demographic, primarily comprises semi-structured or unstructured case studies with a strong emphasis on individual counseling. Various assessment methods were employed, including qualitative data such as sandbox pictures, observation logs, and supervision records, as well as objective tools like K-CBCL and projective tools such as HTP and KFD. The results demonstrate that Sandplay Therapy has a positive influence on elementary school students' self-development, self-esteem enhancement, and the mitigation of maladaptive issues. Moreover, it contributes to the improvement of their social skills, ultimately facilitating a successful adaptation to the school environment. This research provides valuable insights into the potential benefits of Sandplay Therapy for enhancing the well-being and adaptation on elementary school students.
