Sae na Lee,Yeung Suk Lee
Abstract
This study investigated the effect of a prosocial intervention program on the friendship and empathy of preschool children. Half of the 50 five-year-old subjects were randomly assigned to the experimental group and half to the control group. Children in the experimental group experienced 16 units of activity in the prosocial intervention program. After treatment, the 2 groups were tested with the affective Situation Test and the development of conceptions of friendship. Data were analyzed by ANOVA. There were significant differences in empathy and friendship between the experimental and control groups but not between boys and girls.
