다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This research aimed at examining the influence of the appreciation and stroll at urban arboretum on psychological stability. The experiment was conducted at the Hanbat Arboretum, a representative urban arboretum in Daejeon, and the controlled experiment was performed at the downtown around City Hall in the same method. 24 male university students (age 21.1± 2.5) participated as subjects, and the experiment was carried out with three random groups for three days. The places for the experiment were first, the pine forest inside the arboretum, second, the pond inside the arboretum and third, the city. They appreciated the landscape for 10 minutes and walked for 15 minutes. As for the measuring indicators, POMS, STAI, and SD method were applied. When the pleasantness, the feeling of the nature, the feeling of tranquility, the sense of openness, simplicity, comfort, familiarity, and beauty were evaluated through the SD method, in all items, the appreciation or the walk in the pine forest and by the pond in the arboretum was proved to be meaningful than that in a city (p<0.01). The analysis result of POMS was also statistically meaningful at T-A(Tension and Anxiety), A-H(Anger and Hostility), V(Vigor), and F(Fatigue,), and the TMD(Total Mood Disturbance) displayed a similar result (p<0.01). The measurement result of STAI showed the experiment had the effect of psychological stability (p<0.01). Therefore, the research results above have proved that the appreciation and the walk at an arboretum in a city bring mental security.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 도심 수목원의 산책이 남자대학생의 심리적 안정에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 실험은 도시 내 수목원, 대조실험은 시청주변의 도시에서 실시하였다. 성인 남자 대학생 24명이 피험자로 참여하였으며, 실험은 무작위로 세 개의 그룹으로 총 3일간 실시하였다. 실험 장소는 수목원 내 소나무 숲, 수목원내 연못, 세 번째 도시로 정하였다. 각 경관의 감상은 10분간, 산책은 15분간 실시하였으며 측정 지표로는 POMS, STAI, SD method을 이용하였다. SD method로 쾌적함, 자연감, 진정감, 개방감, 단순함, 편안함, 친근함, 아름다움 등의 항목으로 평가한 결과 모든 항목에 있어 수목원의 소나무숲과 연못이 있는 공간의 산책이 도시보다 통계적으로 유의함을 알 수 있었다(p<0.01). POMS의 분석결과도 T-A(Tension and Anxiety), A-H(Anger and Hostility), V(Vigor), F (Fatigue,)에서 통계적으로 유의하였으며 총정서장애(TMD, total mood disturbance)도 유의한 결과를 보였다((p<0.01). STAI 측정결과 실험 중 심리적 안정 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다((p<0.01). 수목원의 산책은 심리적으로 쾌적함, 자연감, 진정감, 개방감, 단순함, 편안함, 친근함, 아름다움 등 순간의 감정을 나타내는 지표에서 유의하게 증가하였으며, 상태불안의 감소와, 분노, 적의, 긴장, 불안 등의 부정적 감정이 완화되어 심리적 안정 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.
