聲音光束對特殊需求幼兒 溝通與動作發展之影響

Abstract

本研究旨在探討聲音光束對特殊需求幼兒溝通與動作發展之影響。研究對象為32位領有身心障礙手冊之幼兒，年齡介於40～63個月之間。研究設計音樂育療中介入聲音光束。活動進行為期16週，每週一次，每次40分鐘。研究結果發現：一、音樂育療能增進特殊需求幼兒溝通與動作能力，顯示參與者有正向的成效，且活動兩個月後穩定保留進步成果；二、音樂育療不僅能促進特殊需求幼兒溝通與動作能力，且可進一步瞭解特殊需求幼兒操弄聲音光束「觸動模式」。

This study primarily examined the influence of soundbeams on communication and physical movement development in young children with special needs. In total, 32 children aged 40-63 months and current holders of disability certificates participated. In the research design, soundbeam instruments were included in the music educational therapy (MET). The study duration was 16 weeks, with one 40-minute MET session per week. The results are as follows: (1) MET had positive results in the children. Their communication and movements had considerably improved after 2 months. (2) MET accelerated the development of communication and physical movements in the children; furthermore, information regarding the needs of young children manipulating the soundbeams in the trigger mode was obtained.
