Okul Öncesi Dönem Çocukların Duygu Düzenleme ve Duyguları Anlama Becerilerinin Yordayıcısı Olarak Annelerin Duygu Sosyalleştirme Davranışları

Bu araştırmada, okul öncesi dönem çocukların sahip oldukları duygu düzenleme ve duyguları anlama becerileri ile annelerinduygu sosyalleştirme davranışları arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Korelasyon türü ilişkisel tarama modelinde tasarlanan araştırmaya alt, orta ve üst sosyoekonomik düzeyden 90 anne ve 3-6 yaş aralığındaki 90 çocuk dâhil edilmiştir. Araştırma verileriÇocukların Olumsuz Duyguları ile Baş Etme Ölçeği, Duygu Düzenleme Ölçeği ve Wally Duygular Testi aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Elde edilen verilerin çözümlenmesinde çoklu regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçları, annelerin duygu sosyalleştirme davranışlarının okul öncesi dönem çocuklarının duygu düzenleme becerilerinin anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olduğunu göstermektedir. Annelerin duygu sosyalleştirme davranışları arasında yer alan problem odaklı ve cezalandırıcı tepkilerin, çocukların duygu düzenleme becerilerinin manidar yordayıcıları olduğu belirlenmiştir. Buna göre; annelerin problem odaklı ve cezalandırıcı tepkileri arttıkça çocukların duygu düzenleme becerileri de artmaktadır. Bununla birlikte annelerin duygu sosyalleştirme davranışlarının okul öncesi dönem çocuklarının duyguları anlama becerilerinin anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırma bulgularından yola çıkarak, annelerin duygu sosyalleştirme davranışlarının çocukları üzerindeki potansiyel etkilerini fark etmelerini sağlamak ve çocuklarının duygu gelişimini desteklemek üzere okul öncesi dönemde uygulanabilecek erken müdahale programlarının hazırlanması önerilmektedir.

Emotion Regulation and Emotion Understanding in Preschoolers as a Predictor of the Maternal Socialization of Emotion

In this study, the relationship between emotion regulation and emotion understanding skills of preschool children and emotional socialization behaviour of mothers was investigated. This study was designed as a correlation type relational survey model with a total of 180 participants - 90 children between the ages of 3-6 and 90 mothers – who have low, medium, and high socio-economic levels. The data of the study were collected using the Coping with Negative Emotions of Children Scale, Emotion regulation Scale, and Wally Emotion Test. The analysis of data was made with multiple regression analysis. The results of the study showed that emotional socialization behaviour of mothers was a significant predictor of emotion regulation skills of preschool children. Problem based and punitive reactions of mothers that are included in emotional socialization behaviours was identified as significant predictors of emotion regulation skills of children. Accordingly, as problem based, and punitive reactions increased, emotion regulation skills of children also increased. However, the results of the study showed that emotional socialization behaviour of mothers was not a significant predictor of understanding emotional skills of preschool children. Based on the research findings, it is suggested that policy makers, institutions educating teachers or teachers themselves prepare early intervention programs to be implemented in pre-schools to ensure mothers' emotional socialization behaviors recognize the potential effects on their children and to support children's emotional development.
