TY - JOUR T1 - Okul Öncesi Dönem Çocuklarının Davranışsal Öz Düzenleme Becerileri ile Ritim Algısı Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi TT - Investigating the Relationship Between Preschool Children's Behavioral Self-Regulation Skills and Rhythm Perception AU - Yurtsever Kılıçgün, Müge PY - 2025 DA - August Y2 - 2025 JF - Gazi Eğitim Bilimleri Dergisi JO - GJES PB - Parantez Teknoloji WT - DergiPark SN - 2149-4932 SP - 260 EP - 283 VL - 11 IS - 2 LA - tr AB - Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, 4-6 yaş grubu çocuklarının davranışsal öz düzenleme becerileri ile ritim algısı arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Ayrıca araştırma kapsamında, cinsiyet ve yaşın bu yaş grubundaki çocukların davranışsal öz düzenleme ve ritim algısı üzerindeki etkisi de incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın temel varsayımı; gelişimsel açıdan, yaşamın erken dönemlerindeki ritim algısındaki farklılıkların, davranışsal öz düzenlemenin temelinde etkili ve uygun bir değerlendirme alanı olarak işlev görebileceğidir. Araştırma konusu gerekçelendirilirken, öz düzenleme ve ritim algısına dair bir dizi nörolojik araştırma bulgusu temel alınmıştır. Araştırmanın örnekleminde 4-6 yaş arası 280 çocuk yer almıştır. Araştırma verileri, Baş-Ayak-Diz-Omuz Dokunma Testi ve İşitsel Örüntü Performans Değerlendirme Testi aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre; 4-6 yaş grubu çocuklarda, davranışsal öz düzenleme becerisi ile ritim algısı arasında pozitif yönlü ve yaşla birlikte güçlenen bir ilişkinin olduğu görülmüştür. Çocukların yaşları arttıkça hem davranışsal öz düzenleme hem de ritim algısı puanlarında artış gerçekleşmiştir. Cinsiyet değişkeni, çocukların davranışsal öz düzenleme becerileri ve ritim algısında anlamlı farklılıklara yol açmasa da, kızların bu alanlardaki puanları erkeklere göre daha yüksek olma eğilimi göstermiştir. Araştırma bulguları kapsamında, 4-6 yaş grubu çocuklardaki ritim algısının hem davranışsal öz düzenlemenin değerlendirilmesinde etkili bir değişken olabileceği, hem de öz düzenlemenin geliştirilmesinde etkili bir uygulama alanı olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca, özellikle ritim algısını destekleyen müdahale programlarının dezavantajlı çocuklarda davranışsal öz düzenlemeye olumlu katkılar sağlayabileceği öngörülmektedir.

Furthermore, the study investigated whether gender and age had an effect on behavioral self-regulation and rhythm perception among children in this age group. The main assumption of the study is that, from a developmental perspective, differences in rhythm perception from the early stages of life may serve as an effective and appropriate area of assessment in the foundation of behavioral self-regulation. In justifying the research topic, a set of neurological findings concerning self-regulation and rhythm perception served as the foundation. The study sample included 280 children between the ages of 4 and 6. The research data were collected through the Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders Touch Test and the Auditory Pattern Performance Assessment Test. According to the research findings, there is a positive relationship between behavioral self-regulation skills and rhythm perception in children aged 4 to 6, and this relationship becomes stronger with age. As the children got older, behavioral self-regulation and rhythm perception scores increased. Although the gender variable did not result in significant differences in children's behavioral self-regulation skills and rhythm perception, girls' scores in these areas tended to be higher than those of boys'. Within the scope of the research findings, it is thought that rhythm perception in children aged 4 to 6 may serve both as an effective variable in the assessment of behavioral self-regulation and as an effective application area in the development of self-regulation. It is also predicted that intervention programs that specifically support rhythm perception can make positive contributions to behavioral self-regulation in disadvantaged children. CR - Alexander, J.
