Abstract

The aim of the present study is to compare social development, emotional-behavioural problems and academic selfesteem of children who attain primary school at the age of five and six. A total of 618 children (girls=321, boys=297) who live in Ankara participated in the study. Data for the present descriptive study were collected at the beginning and end of academic terms. The Revised Conners’ Parent Rating Scale-Long Form, The Revised Conners’ Teacher Rating Scale-Long Form, Ages and Stages Questionnaires: Social-Emotional, Preschool Social Behaviour Scale-Teacher Form and Academic Self-Esteem Scale were utilized. Pre-post test findings demonstrated that five year olds experienced higher level of emotional-behavioural and social problems and exhibited lower level of academic self-esteem compared to their six year old peers. Findings are discussed in relation to educational implications and possible solutions
