This research is conducted as a causal comparative research with the
purpose of examining the effect of gender, preschool attendance
duration and type of preschool education institution on auditory
reasoning and processing skills of six-year old children who are
attending to preschool. Participants are composed of children who are
between 60 and 72 months old and attending to private and public
kindergartens in Konya and include 314 children. Test of Auditory
Reasoning and Processing Skills were used to collect the data in the
study. Data were analyzed within dependent samples t test and oneway ANOVA. Findings of study revealed that auditory reasoning and
processing skills of children did not differ according to gender.
However, auditory reasoning and processing skills of children having 3
year- preschool education was statistically significantly higher than
those having 2 and 1 year- preschool education and of children having
2- year preschool education was statistically significantly higher than
those having 1 year of preschool education. Auditory reasoning and
processing skills of children attending to independent kindergartens
were also found statistically significantly higher than those attending
to nursery classes. As specified in research results, preschool education
support children’s auditory reasoning and processing skills. Therefore,
preschool education must be started in earlier ages instead of one year
before elementary education.
