The Use of Music and Movement Activities in Lessening Children’s Problem Behaviors
The main purpose of this action research was to investigate if using music and movement activities
would lessen the problem behaviors displayed by eleven (11) preschool students ages 4-5 years old in
a private preschool in the Philippines. Problem behaviors are behaviors that are considered as
disruptive or can cause harm to other children or may be a hindrance to their learning. The students
were exposed to researcher-adapted music and movement activities for five (5) weeks based on
observed target problem behaviors. Quantitative data were collected through the use of a researchermade
checklist and qualitative data through observations. Paired t-test results determined that there
was a significant difference in the decrease of children’s problem behaviors during free play when
music and movement activities were implemented. This also has been confirmed by the observations
with the children which also showed the improvement in their behaviors during free play –
specifically for destroying, grabbing and not knowing when to share toys and materials. The data also
showed the effectiveness of the intervention in lessening the problem behaviors in other learning
periods aside from free play, validating the role of using music and movement activities in lessening
children’s problem behaviors.
期刊介绍:
The journal serves as a vehicle for reporting and sharing the results of studies by early childhood education in the Pacific area. It is peer reviewed to insure that only high quality manuscripts are accepted for publication. The journal is multi-disciplinary and serves educators and other professionals concerned with the education and care of young children. It focuses primarily on research activities in the Pacific Rim area, though research reports from other areas are not excluded. The journal includes research articles related to the education and care of children from birth to age 8 and to related topics. These include reports of empirical research, reviews of research, critiques of research, and articles related to the applications of research to practice.
