Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The researchers developed the narrative therapy group counseling program for underclass children and explored its effectiveness for changing participants’ self-esteem, peer relationships, and sociality.
Method: The participants in the study were children in 5th grade of primary school, who had difficulty in terms of household economy and poor relationships. They formed the experiment group and control group, respectively. The researchers analyzed the data using t-tests.
Results: The narrative therapy group counseling program for underclass children had a positive effect on the children’s self-esteem, peer relationships, and sociality. The results showed that participants’ self-esteem, peer relationship, and sociality in the experimental group were much higher than those in the control group.
Conclusions: This study presented the direction that could be applied to replace the dominant narrative of the problem with an alternative narrative for underclass children’s self-esteem, peer relationships, and sociality.
