Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
This study aims to analyze whether the social skill levels of four and five year old preschool children change according to their mother’ attitudes. This research was conducted among 104 children (58 girls and 46 boys) who attended preschools in central Kayseri and their mothers. The preschools were selected using the simple random sampling method among all preschools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education in central Kayseri. Data were collected using the “Parental Attitude Research Instrument (PARI)” and “Social Skill Scale (SSS)”. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Kruskal Wallis H-tests were used to analyze the data. According to these analyses, children whose mothers adopt moderately protective attitudes, are moderately democratic, reject homemaker roles, do not have marital conflicts, get along well and impose moderate discipline show higher levels of social skills (p>0.05).
