본 연구는 그림책을 활용한 갈등상황 토의활동이 유아의 또래 유능성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 데 목적이 있다. 연구의 대상은 경기도 용인에 소재한 J병설유치원과 근거리에 위치한 S병설유치원의 만5 세 유아들로 실험집단 26명과 통제집단 26명으로 총 52명이었다. 연구 대상 유아의 평균연령은 연구 시작 일을 기준으로 하여 63개월이었으며, 실험집단은 62개월(여: 64개월, 남 62개월), 통제집단은 63.5개월(여: 64개월, 남: 63개월)이었다. 실험처치는 2014년 4월 21(월)부터 2014년 7월 4일(금)까지이며, 그림책을 활용 한 갈등상황 토의활동은 주 1회씩 실시하여 10주간 총 10회에 걸쳐 실시하였다. 연구도구는 박정란(2008)이 고안한 또래 유능성 검사도구를 사용하였다. 그 결과 유아의 또래 유능성은 그림책을 활용한 갈등상황 토의활동을 실시한 실험집단과 실시하지 않은 통제집단 간에 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또래 유능성의 하위요소인 놀이 주도하기, 친구 사 귀기, 공유하기, 갈등 해결하기는 그림책을 활용한 갈등상황 토의활동을 실시한 실험집단과 실시하지 않은 통제집단 간에 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This survey was performed based on total 52 children including experiment group (26 persons) and control group (26 persons) aged full 5 years old of S annexed kindergarten near to J annexed kindergarten located at Yongin City, Gyeonggi-do. Average age of test subjects was 62 months (female: 64 months, male: 63 months) based on commencement date of research and that of experiment group was 62 months (female: 64 months, male: 62 months) and control group 63.5 months (female: 한국유아교육연구 제17권 제2호 - 28 - 64 months, male: 63 months). Test was performed during the period from April 21 (Mon), 2014 to July 4 (Fri), 2014 and total 10 times of discussion activity over conflict situation utilizing picture books was performed for 10 weeks based on 1 time a week. As research tool, peer competency test tool designed by Park, Jeong Ran (2008) was used. The result of this research could be summarized as follows. First, it was revealed that in peer competency of child, there was a significant difference between experiment group that performed discussion activity over conflict situation utilizing picture books and control group that did not perform such activity. This implies that such activity exerted a positive influence over peer competency of child. Second, in case of taking the lead in play that is subelement of peer competency, it was revealed that there was a significant difference between experiment group that performed discussion activity over conflict situation utilizing picture books and control group that did not perform such activity. This implies that such activity exerted a positive influence over taking the lead in play of child. Third, in case of making friends that is subelement of peer competency, it was revealed that there was a significant difference between experiment group that performed discussion activity over conflict situation utilizing picture books and control group that did not perform such activity. This implies that such activity exerted a positive influence over making friends of child. Fourth, in case of sharing that is subelement of peer competency, it was revealed that there was a significant difference between experiment group that performed discussion activity over conflict situation utilizing picture books and control group that did not perform such activity.
