Abstract
The purpose of this research is to analyze the relationship between maternal acceptance-rejection levels and preschool children’s social competence and emotional regulation skills. Sample of the research, which was designed according to relational scanning model, consisted of 303 mother-child pairs who were attending a pre-school educational institution during 2014-15 academic years, in Istanbul; they were selected by random sampling and they have participated in the research voluntarily. The tools used for data collection were “Personal Information Form”, “Parental Acceptance-Rejection Questionnaire-Mother Form (PARQ)”, “Social Competence and Behavior Evaluation-30 (SCBE-30)” and “Emotion Regulation Checklist”. Maternal acceptance-rejection levels were evaluated by themselves, whereas children’s social competence and emotional regulation skills were evaluated by their teachers. The obtained data were analyzed by Pearson correlation test and t-test, using appropriate statistics software. As a result of the study, it has been found that there is a positive and significant relationship between mother’s acceptance level and children’s “Social Competence” subscale of SCBE-30 and their emotional regulation skills.
In addition to this result, it has been found that mother’s acceptance level didn’t differentiated according to age and gender of the child; however the average scores of PARQ’s “warmth/affection” sub-dimension have been differentiated in favor of the daughters. It has been found that “Social Competence” and “Anger-Aggression” subscale of SCBE-30 were significantly differentiated according to gender; “Anger-Aggression” scores of the boys were higher than the girls, whereas “Social Competence” scores of the girls were higher than the boys. Moreover, it has been found that “Lability-Negativity” subscale scores of Emotion Regulation Checklist have been differentiated according to gender; girls showing less labile/negative emotional reactions. Finally, it has been found that child’s social competence and emotional regulation skills increase as the age increases.
