Abstract

This study examined children from two families exposed to domestic violence and had psychological counseling in July 2017 at KOVA, a support organization for crime victims. The subjects were exposed to family violence in excess of 10 years and was protected by the shelter with their mothers who had filed complaints with the local police. Victims of domestic violence often face difficulty in avoiding the source of aggression, and thus experience repetitive attacks. This research was conducted at the Buddhism Brain Research Facility, Seoul University, to identify and quantify the emotional characteristics of the affected children in which it is difficult to escape from their living conditions. Data was collected by BrainMaster, a 19-channel examination kit, and analyzed by NeuroGuide. As a result of analyzing the emotional characteristics of the affected children through Quantitative EEG and brain topographical map, we found an increase of slow wave and problems with abnormality of Alpha, High Beta in the left and right Frontal area asymmetry.

이 연구는 범죄피해자 지원기관인 (사)한국피해자지원협회(KOVA; Korea Organization Victicm Assistance)에서 2017년 7월 피해상담 전문가의 심리상담을 진행한 두 폭력 가정의 피해자녀들을 대상으로 이루어졌다. 연구참여자는 가정폭력에 대한 피해 호소가 10년이 넘은 가정으로서 폭력피해사실에 대해 경찰서에 직접 신고되어 접수된 이력이 있고 또 피해자녀와 피해자인 어머니가 단기쉼터에 입소하여 함께 거주한 경험이 있는 가정이었다. 가정폭력의 경우 자녀들은 특히, 미성년자인 경우 부모가 제공하는 생활공간에서 폭력피해를 입더라도 자발적으로 벗어나기 어려운 상태에 있으며, 폭력경험을 지속적이고 반복적으로 당하게 된다. 이에 가정폭력 피해자녀들이 현재 가해자-피해자 관계의 부모와 함께 거주하면서 어떤 감정 양상을 나타내고 있는지 그 특성을 정량화된 뇌파 데이터를 수집하고 분석하여 확인하고자 하였다. 뇌파측정은 서울불교대학원 부설 뇌과학연구소에서 진행하였으며, 뇌파측정 데이터 수집은 국제적으로 표준화된 19채널 뇌파측정도구인 브레인마스터를 사용하였고, 데이터 처리는 뉴로가이드를 사용하였다. 가정폭력을 경험한 피해자녀의 감정양상을 정량적 수치 및 뇌지형도를 통하여 분석한 결과 전두엽에 있어서 과잉서파의 문제, 알파파 좌우비대칭, 고베타파 좌우비대칭의 문제를 발견하였다.
