ABSTRACT

When a community has a method of self-expression, men can acquire or protect their profits or rights in the community, and prevent various mental ailments and protect their bodies. Dance is an art form to express emotions and intentions through a variety of expressions using their bodies. That is, as men can express their intentions and demands using actions, dance can be considered as arts activities that are involved in self-expression. Particularly, it is considered that life dancing that social beings can easily access and self-expression in social life are closely related. Thus, this study expected the degree of self-expression of those who access to life dancing will be higher than those who do not, and performed the research to investigate the degree of self-expression of those who do not access to life dancing and those who access, and to examine how life dancing is connected with the degree of self-expression through their differences. To achieve this purpose, this study compared and analyzed the factors of self-expression targeting those who access to life dancing (69 people) and those who do not (97 people) among social beings who perform production activities. The results show that active and altruistic expressions are not significantly different, and those who access to life dancing partly have the higher level in passive, ethical, straightforward expressions. When it comes to avoidance expressions, it shows that those who do not access to life dancing perform more avoidance expressions than those who access. Overall, although those who access to life dancing and those who do not are not significantly different in the level of self-expression, it can be found that dance can be used as a method to raise the level of self-expression, in terms of not avoiding. According to the results, this study suggests to use characteristics that dancers have in order to expand the base of dance. That is, it is considered that providing easy dance programs based on basic actions that can be accessed for the purpose of a friendship by using not active approaches but passive ones will encourage a wide range of the public to access to dance. The limitation of this study is not to gain results in the more objective level because of a limited number of samples. Moreover, future studies need to demonstrate the relationship between self-expression and dance by analyzing the correlation between self-expression and the factors of dance.
