Longitudinal Observation of Self-Regulation and School Adjustment during the Preschool Period / Okul Öncesi Dönemde Öz Düzenleme ve Okula Uyumun Boylamsal Olarak İncelenmesi

Abstract

The aim of this research is to observe independent learning behaviours and school adjustment during the preschool period in a longitudinal manner. Based on teacher’s observing self-regulation and school adjustment of young children within six months, this study is quantitative, longitudinal and conducted in the relational screening model. The study includes 120 children aged 5-6 years old and who are enrolled in a preschool education institution affiliated with the Ministry of National Education. There are two scales (Children’s Independent Learning Development Checklist 3-5 (CHILD 3-5) and Teacher Rating Scale of School Adjustment for 5-6 Years of Children) in the research. As a result of examining self-regulation and school adjustment of preschool children according to the two-measure, six months longitudinal study, it is evident that first of all, self-regulation in the fall semester is positively related to self-regulation in the spring semester. According to this result, as self-regulation during the fall semester increases, self-regulation during the spring semester; as school adjustment during the fall semester increases, school adjustment during the spring semester may also increase. Also, self-regulation of the initial measurement predicts self-regulation of the second measurement. Same finding is also valid for school adjustment. School adjustment of the initial measurement predicts school adjustment of the second measurement. Self-regulation and school adjustment at the beginning of school may affect self-regulation and school adjustment in the second semester. With respect to this result, it is possible to assert that the self-regulation skills and school adjustment levels of young children when they start preschool education are important in the short-term and long-term. With respect to the short and long-term relationships and predictive effect of the variables with each other, it was determined that self-regulation during the fall semester is positively associated with school adjustment level during both semesters.
