 Abstract:

The present research utilizes the statistical program SPSS 23.0. First, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test examined the homogeneity of the socio-demographic characteristics of the experimental group and the control group. The Mann-Whitney U Test and the Wilcoxon Singed-Rank Test were conducted through a nonparametric statistical method. The results are summarized. First, CPRT improved the empathy of the experiment group compared with the control group. Second, many positive behavioral changes were observed in the process of their therapy. They became more accepting of the emotion of their children and less playful and more supportive of the play-focusing program. Third, it was found that the experiment group’s behavior problems of the children were improved in contrast to those of the control group. The CPRT appeared to be significant in improving these behavior problems in children. The results of the analysis are expected to provide base data that can be used in the field to help young children increase such abilities.
