Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare the working memory and the phonological awareness between Children with multi-cultural families and general families. The research subjects were 15 multi-cultural and 15 general primary school students who were attending 1st-3rd grade in D city. Working memory tested K-TTFC-2 by standardized tool. Phonological awareness abilities was considering the age of the subjects, tested phoneme awareness. Data process was conducted by t -test and frequency test in SPSS program. The results were as follows. First, working memory comparison of both groups showed significant differences. Especially had significant difference in chapter 1, chapter 4. Second, comparison of phonological awareness between both groups showed significant statistic differences. Third, the Phonological awareness comparison of both groups showed that there are differences in sound matching(word medial coda), substituting middle sound in monosyllabic words, phoneme switching. This research result is considered that can be used as the fundamental data for the development of the therapy data considering the working memory and the phonological awareness of children with multi-cultural families.

본 연구는 다문화아동과 일반아동의 작업기억과 음운인식능력이 집단 간에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구대상은 전라남도 D시에 거주하며 초등학교 1~3학년에 재학중인 다문화 아동 15명과 일반아동 15명이었다. 작업기억을 검사하기 위하여 K-TTFC-2를 실시하였고, 음운인식능력을 검사하기 위하여 아동들의 연령을 고려하여 음소수준의 검사만을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 다문화아동과 일반아동의 작업기억의 차이를 비교한 결과 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 다문화아동과 일반아동의 음운인식능력 중에서 음소 수준의 차이를 비교한 결과 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 셋째, 다문화 아동과 일반아동의 하위과제별 차이를 비교한 결과 음 짝짓기(어중 종성), 단음절 단어에서 중성 대치하기, 음 전환하기에서 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 다문화 아동의 음운 및 작업기억 결과를 고려한 치료를 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
