| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed at assessing the stress-reducing effects of block play. The experimental group was younger children affected by the tsunami and the control group was younger children not affected by the tsunami. Before and after the playtime, their salivary alpha-amylase activity (sAMY) was measured. Operational definition of block play was to manipulate the blocks in such a way as to conform to or explore one’s own conceptions in the process. Four of the 17 children in the experimental group and 11 of the 17 children in the control group engaged in block play meeting the operational definition (Fisher’s exact test, p=.0366). sAMY decreased in 10 of the 15 participants who met the operational definition of block play. sAMY did not decrease in 23 of the 24 participants who did not meet the operational definition (Fisher’s exact test, p=.0002). The results suggested that qualitative differences in block play may affect children’s post-play stress state.
