Okul Öncesi Dönem Çocuklarının Duygu Düzenleme Becerilerinin Çeşitli Değişkenler Açısından İncelenmesi

Abstract

İnsanın günlük yaşamı göz önünde bulundurulduğunda,  aynı gün içerisinde birçok farklı duygunun deneyimlendiği ancak sosyal ilişkileri sürdürebilmek için her durum ve ortamda duyguların doğal seyrinde yaşanamadığı görülmektedir. Kişi duygularını yaşarken içinde bulunduğu ortam ve çevresindeki kişilerden bağımsız değildir. Bu nedenle kişinin duygularını düzenleme yolları bulması oldukça önemli hale gelmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı; okul öncesi dönemdeki çocukların duygu düzenleme becerilerinin çeşitli değişkenler açısından incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemi, basit rastgele örnekleme yöntemi ile seçilmiş olan 2015-2016 eğitim ve öğretim yılında Ankara ili Çankaya ilçesinde bulunan bağımsız anaokullarına devam eden 4-6 yaş arası 240 çocuk ve ebeveynden oluşmaktadır. Betimsel araştırma yöntemlerinden kesitsel tarama modelinde yürütülen araştırmanın veri toplama aşamasında; Genel Bilgi Formu ve Duygu Düzenleme Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi yapılırken Kruskal Wallis-H Testi, Bağımsız Gruplar-T Testi ve Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular üzerinden çocukların duygu düzenleme becerilerinin yaş, cinsiyet, kardeş sayısı, anne çalışma durumu, babanın yaşı ve babanın eğitim durumuna göre farklılık göstermediği ancak annenin eğitim düzeyi, annenin yaşı ve ailenin aylık gelirine göre farklılaştığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
