본 연구에서는 동화전달매체 유형이 유아의 발생적 문식성에 미치는 효과에 대해 알아보고 부가하여 동화전달매체를 사용한 유아의 성별에 따른 차이를 알아보았다. 연구대상은 만 4세 남아 45명과 여아 45명을 포함한 총 90명을 30명씩 세 집단으로 구성하였으며 검사도구는 이야기 구성요소 인식검사와 문장이해력 검사를 사용하였다. 세 집단은 인쇄매체집단, 비디오매체집단, 컴퓨터매체집단이었으며 처치는 8개의 동화를 매체유형에 따라 집단마다 6주간에 걸쳐 반복 실시하였다. 연구결과 이야기 구성요소 인식능력에 있어서 컴퓨터매체집단이 비디오매체집단보다 유의미하게 높게 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of story delivery media types and gender difference on young children's emergent literacy. A total of 90 children(45 boys, 45 girls), with an average age of 4 years, were selected and randomly assigned to the following groups：print picture story book group(30), VTR picture story book group(30), and computer picture story book group(30). The stories used for this study were as follow 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar', 'Snow man', 'Grandpa', 'Frederick', 'Swimmy', 'Papa Please Get the Moon for me', 'Der Klein Eisbar', 'Peter Rabbit'. A posttest experimental group design was used to compare young children's story element measures and sentence comprehension over 6-week period. The collected data were analyzed by using two-way ANOVA. The findings of the study were as follows： 1. The young children's ability in story element measures were different by story delivery media types. The main effect analysis of story element measures data by ANOVA showed a statistically significant difference between the 3 groups [F(2, 84)= 5.960, p=.004]. The computer picture story book group was more effective for increasing young children's ability in story element measures than the VTR picture story book group(p<.05). The young children's ability in story element measures were not different by gender in relation to different story delivery media types. 2. The young children's ability in sentence comprehension were not different by story delivery media types. The young children's ability in sentence comprehension were not different by gender in relation to different story delivery media types.
