This study is a play-oriented psychological exercise program aimed at identifying the impact of developmental delays on peer relationships among infants, Three development-delayed infants were tested at the S Daycare Center for integrated education in Seoul, using the design of multiple foundation lines among the subjects. Observations were made in classrooms that were familiar to infants and during free play when play with peers was activated. The incidence of peer-initiated behavior, peer-reaction behavior, and peer-interaction was measured as a sub-factors, and the incidence of peer-to-peer relationships was measured during free play, and the intervention phase confirmed that the intervention effect was maintained after two weeks.
The results of the study and the discussion resulted in the following conclusions.
First: The behavior of children with developmental delays increased after the intervention of play-oriented psychological movements.
Second: Childhood reaction behavior of children with developmental delays increased after intervention with play-oriented psychological movements.
Third: The peer interaction of children with developmental delays increased after the intervention of play-oriented psychological movements.
Studies show that the frequency of occurrence during the baseline period was low, but began to increase with the onset of arbitration, resulting in a more stable level through the retention period without the application of the arbitration program.
Developmental delay infants can learn functional play because their language skills are slower than their peers development can be limited in virtual or symbolic games where movements and language need to be coordinated according to the situation, and pro-social behaviors such as helping, sharing, and cooperating with ordinary infants have been low. As a result, even if you play alone or play with your peers, the play time is short and there are difficulties in peer relationships. However, they were able to perceive other people's feelings through psychological exercises and influenced peer interactions by interacting with their peers.
As a result, it was found that the psychological exercise program through movement created confidence by using one's body to express various expressions, and positively affected peer relationships. in addition, as a result of arbitration as a play-oriented psychological exercise program, sufficient play exploration and increased play immersion with peers have affected peer relationships. Through this study, we hope that psychological exercise will be applied not only to development-delayed infants but also to general infants and various types of disabled infants, creating a smooth relationship with peers, feeling fun and joy in a relationship that naturally interacts with peers, and having a positive impact on their playfulness.
