본 연구는 DSM-IV에 의해 선택적 함구증으로 진단된 23명의 아동들을 대상으로 임상적인 특성(인구학적 특성, 임상경과, 발달력, 성격특성, 가족력, 지능지수, 학업성취도), 치료방법 및 기간, 치료경과등을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 대상군의 남녀 비율은 1 : 4.8로 여아에서 높았으며 발병시 평균연령을 3세 4개월, 치료시작의 평균연령은 7세 7개월이었다. 2) 주산기의 문제를 가지고 있었던 아동은 22%였으며 언어발달이 지연되었던 아동은 26%였다. 3세 이전에 주 양육자와의 분리경험이 있던 아동은 26%, 3세 이전에 외상이나 심리적 충격을 입었던 아동은 26%였다. 유뇨증의 병력은 30%에서, 유분증의 병력은 4%에서 있었다. 3) 어머니의 공생적인(symbiotic relationship) 관계에 있는 아동은 61%였고 가정내에서 아버지보다 어머니의 영향력이 우세한 경우는 65%였다. 부모중 정신병리나 알콜/약물중독의 문제를 가지고 있는 경우는 39%였다. 과거력상 신체적인 학대를 받았던 아동은 26%였다. 4) 환아들의 성격특성중 가장 많은 것은 수줍음(100%)이었고 그 다음으로는 불안해 한다(83%), 고집이 세다(83%), 아기 같고 의존적이다(65%), 화를 잘 낸다(52%), 조종하려고 한다(39%) 순으로 많았다. 5) 지능검사를 실시한 16명 아동의 평균 지능지수는 88.3이었고 이중 정신지체의 기준은 IQ 69 이하의 아동이 7명, 70 이상인 아동아 9명이었다. 6) 치료방법중 놀이치료를 받은 아동이 65%로 가장 많았으며 약물치료를 받은 아동은 21%, 행동치료를 받은 아동은 8%, 한 가지 이상의 방법을 복합하여 치료받은 아동은 12%였다. 7) 치료종료시 최우수 평가를 받은 아동은 8.6% 였고 우수의 평가를 받은 아동은 30.4% 양호의 평가를 받은 아동은 52%, 불량의 평가를 받은 아동은 8.7%였다. 추적도사의 최우수의 평가를 받은 아동은 21.7%였고 우수는 13%, 양호는 21.7%, 불량은 34.8% 였다. 치료성과는 유의미한 상관관계를 보이는 변수는 지능지수로 나타났다. 8) 대상군을 공생형 함구증(symbiotic mutism), 언어공포성 함구증(speech phobic mutism), 반응성 함구증(reactive mutism), 수동-공격성 함구증(passive aggressive mutism)으로 분류하였을때 각각 65%, 8.6%, 12%, 30%였다. 지능지수에 따라 정신지체로 분류된 7명과 정상지능군에 속하는 9명을 비교적 언어발달 및 성격특성, 가족역동, 치료성과 등에서 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Selective mutism is a childhood condition defined by persisten failure to speak in specific social situation when speaking is expected, dispite preserved ability to comprehend spoken language and speak. Present study is to investigate clinical characteristics, treatment method and outcome of 23 children who were diagnosed as selective mutism by DSM-IV criteria at the child psychiatry ouptatient department of SNUH. The results were as follows : 1) The Sex ratio was 1: 4.8, female dominant Mear age of onset was 33 years old and mean age of first referral was 7.7 years old. 2) 22% of subjects had perinatal problem such as low birth weight, preterm birth, 26% of the subjects have history of delayed language development. There are subjects who had been separated with mam caretaker before 3 years old(26%) and who experienced physical or psychological trauma before 3 years old(26%). A few subjects had enurests(30%) and encoprests(4%). 3) Many subjects(65%) had symbiotic relationship with their mother. These families consist of dominant, verbally aggressive mother and passive father. Parents of 39% of all subjects were judged to have definite psychopathology(social phobic, depression, hysterical trait or alcohol problem) 26% of all subject, were reported physically abused. 4) The personality trait of the subjects were frequently described as follows(in order of frequency) ; Shy(100%), anxious(83%), stubborn(83%)m rigid and tense posture(78%), immature(65%) overdependent(65%), irritable(52%), manipulative(39%), depressive(39%). 5) The mean performance IQ of 16 subjects by KEDI-WISC was 88.3 Among them, the subjects with IQ below 69 were seven and those with IQ above 70 were nine. When comparing these two group(Mental retardation group vs Normal IQ group), we could find some difference in language development, personality trait, family dynamics and treatment outcome. 6) Among several treatment methods for selective mutism, play therapy was the most frequently used method(65%). Other commonly used treatment methods were pharmacotherapy(21%), behavioral therapy(8%), combined therapy(play therapy+pharmacotherapy+family therapy+behavioral therapy)(12%), 7) Regarding the outcome of treatment 8.6% was evaluated as Excellent, 30.4% as Good, 52% as Fair, 8.7% as Poor at the tinic of treatment. At follow up interview 21.7% was evaluated Excellent, 13% as Good, 21.7% as Fair, 34.8% as Poor. 8) We classified all subjects by Havden's 4 subtype. Symbiotic mutism was most common(65%) and other subtypes are Speech phobic mutism(8.6), Reactive mutism(13%) and Passive-aggressive mutism(30%).
