The purpose of this study aims to examine the ability to express emotions through emoji during different social networking contexts between children with cerebral palsy and normal developing children, and to examine differences in their accuracy and response time.This study was conducted targeting upper grade schiil students aged 10-12 years consisting of a total of 26 children including 13 children with cerebral palsy and 13 normal developing children with matching age, sex, intelligence, and linguistic ability. Four basic facial expression emoji were selected from the KakaoTalk app, and 40 emotion expression questions were given to the children. As a result, First, children with cerebral palsy showed significantly lower correct responses compared to normal developing children in the comparison of emoji usage ability for each condition; however, there was no significant difference by condition for each group. Second, there was no difference by condition in the response time comparison between children with cerebral palsy and normal developing children, and there also were no signs of interaction effect between factors and groups. In conclusion, while children with cerebral palsy showed difficulty in their emoji usage ability in the context of social networking conversations compared to normal developing childrens due to deficiencies in their inferential ability, this does not seem to show that they experience more difficulties in emotional inference. While there were no differences by condition, they showed lower results in informational inference compared to normal developing children. This shows that for the language rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy whose intelligence and language abilities are within a normal range they may still experience in inference; therefore they will have difficulties in participating in studies that require a higher level of cognition. Therefore, this study can be said to be meaningful as it showed the importance of language intervention focused on higher level thinking ability or inference ability for children with cerebral palsy who are found to be withing the normal range of cognitive and language development.
