이 연구는 장애인체육 영재를 개념화하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 Novak과 Gowin(1984)이 고안한 개념도 분석을 활용하여 각 3개 집단(지도자 집단, 연구자 집단, 선수 집단)의 10명(총 30명)으로 부터 장애인체육 영재의 개념화에 대한 지식개념을 살펴보았다. 또한, 각 집단의 개념도 특성 차이를 알아보기 위해 SPSS Win version 22.0 통계프로그램 활용하여 일원분산분석(one-way ANOVA)을 실시하였으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 장애인체육 영재의 개념화를 위한 각 집단에 대한 상위개념 및 종속개념을 분석한 결과, 상위개념은 일반적 특성인 신체지능, 경기지능, 과제집착력과 특수성인 장애인 특수성, 환경적 요인 등 총 5개의 개념으로 개념화 되었으며, 신체지능 21개, 경기지능 27개, 과제집착력 22개, 장애인 특수성 16개, 환경적 요인 14개의 하위개념이 포함되었다. 둘째, 장애인체육 영재의 개념화를 위한 각 집단의 지식개념의 확장정도 및 구체성을 알아보기 위해 상위개념의 특성(위계, 상위개념의 종속개념 수, 특성점수, 밀도)을 분석한 결과, 위계, 상위개념의 종속개념 수, 특성점수는 3개의 집단 모두 신체지능의 지식개념이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 밀도의 범위는 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 각 집단의 개념도의 특성(위계, 상위개념의 종속개념 수, 특성점수, 밀도)의 차이를 비교·분석한 결과, 모두 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to conceptualize the talented people for disability sports. 10 people from each of the 3 expert groups of instructor group, researcher group and player group(30 subject) were selected by quota sampling method. Concept map analysis devised by Novak and Gowin (1984) was conducted for examination of the knowledge concept about the conceptualization of the talented people for disability sports. In addition, one-way ANOVA was carried out with SPSS 22.0 statistics program for the investigation of the difference in the characteristics of the concept map of each group. The results obtained from this process were as follows. First, as a result of the analysis of the superordinate concept and subordinate concept of each group for conceptualization of the talented people for disability sports, the superordinate concept was conceptualized with the 5 concepts of the general characteristics of physical intelligence, competition intelligence and tenacity of task performance and the special characteristics of distinctiveness of disabled people and environmental factors, and the number of subordinate concepts included was 21 in physical intelligence, 27 in competition intelligence, 22 in tenacity of task performance, 16 in distinctiveness of disabled people and 14 in environmental factors. Second, as a result of the analysis of the characteristics of the superordinate concepts (i.e., hierarchy, the number of subordinate concepts of each superordinate concept, score of characteristics and density) conducted for examination of the degree of expansion and knowledge concreteness of the knowledge concept of each group for conceptualization of the concept of the talented people for disability sports, the knowledge concept of physical intelligence was the highest in hierarchy, the number of subordinate concepts of each superordinate concept and score of characteristics in all the 3 groups, and the range of density in the 3 groups was not different. Third, as a result of the comparative analysis of the difference in the characteristics of the concept map of each group there was no statistically meaningful difference in all of the hierarchy, the number of subordinate concepts of each superordinate concept, score of characteristics and density.
