초록

This research investigated the difference in aesthetic responses between children and adult music therapists towards children's songs. The experimental group consisted of thirty sixth grade elementary students and thirty graduate students majoring in music therapy at Sookmyung Women's University. Researchers used a CRDI to collect the sample respondents' reactions to the music with real time data. The data was then graphically formated to show a more macroscopic view of the total research sample results. Researchers found that children showed higher levels of aesthetic responses to cheerful and rhythmical types of songs while adult music therapists exhibited favorable responses to more melodious songs. In their directional responses, children maintained their responses to one side while adult music therapists showed a directional change while listening to cheerful and rhythmic songs. Although both the children and the adults showed one directional response while listening to melodious songs, there was also a noticeable difference in range between their responses.
