Shin, Nana,Krzysik, Lisa,Vaughn, Brian E. Korean Association of Child Studies 2014 Child studies in Asia-Pacific context Vol.4 No.1

Emotion is a central feature of social interactions. In this study, we examined age-related changes in emotion expressiveness and emotion knowledge and how young children's emotion expressiveness and knowledge were related. A total of 300 children attending a daycare center contributed data for the study. Observation and interview data relevant to measures of emotion expressiveness and knowledge were collected and analyzed. Both emotion knowledge and expressed positive affect increased with age. Older preschool children expressed positive affect more frequently than did younger preschoolers. Older preschool children also labeled, recognized, and provided plausible causes mores accurately than did younger preschool children. In addition, we tested whether children's errors on the free labeling component conform to the structural model previously suggested by Bullock and Russell (1986) and found that preschool children were using systematic strategies for labeling emotion states. Relations between emotion expressiveness and emotion knowledge generally were not significant, suggesting that emotional competence is only gradually constructed by the child over the preschool years.

This study addressed two research questions related to the perceptions and practice of early childhood English education at home among mothers aged 20–35 years who had experienced the 7th curriculum and were raising children younger than six years. A survey of 127 people was conducted, followed by five interviews with four selected participants. The mothers hoped that their infant children would be exposed to English early in life and thus would naturally acquire the language; this hope was related to the mothers’ difficulty in speaking English, despite having received education in English for many years. In terms of practice, 80 of the 127 participants (63%) had provided English education to their children. The mothers had used various types of educational media, including television or radio, textbooks, teaching aids, fairy tales, video media, and workbooks; they had also used song and hand play to expose their children to English in a way that accounted for children’s short attention spans. However, due to a lack of confidence in their English skills, the mothers also appeared to rely on early childhood educational institutions or private education. This study emphasizes the role of macro language policy and planning in line with micro language policy and planning for English education in early childhood.

Objective: This study examined the relationships among sleep problems, executive function and social behavior during the preschool period. In addition, the mediating role of executive function between sleep problems and social behavior was investigated. Methods: A total of 304 preschool children participated in this study. The data were collected through maternal reports. Results: First, preschoolers’ sleep problems were found to be significantly related to overt aggression and prosocial behavior. Second, preschoolers with sleep problems displayed lower levels of executive function. Third, preschoolers’ executive function was significantly associated with social behavior. Lastly, preschoolers’ executive function fully mediated the relationship between sleep problems and overt aggression, and between sleep problems and prosocial behavior. That is, preschoolers’ sleep problems had effects on overt aggression and prosocial behavior, only through the effects on executive function. Conclusion: This study contributes to the sleep literature by examining the role of executive function and emphasizes the importance of forming a healthy sleep habit during the preschool period.

This study examined short-term longitudinal reciprocal relationships between maternal parenting behavior and preschoolers’ compliance/noncompliance, as well as stability in both maternal parenting behavior and preschoolers’ compliance/noncompliance over time. The sample which was used for this study was taken from a two-wave (one year apart) longitudinal study of preschool aged children and their mothers (N = 53 dyads). At both times, mothers and their children were invited to a laboratory and engaged in 25 minutes of play involving three episodes of mother-child interaction. Maternal parenting behavior and preschoolers’ compliance/noncompliance during play were coded using the Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System-III (DPICS-III). Maternal codes included positive, neutral, and negative parenting behaviors and child codes were comprised of compliance and noncompliance. The results revealed that during the play session, maternal neutral and negative parenting behavior and preschoolers’ compliance were stable over time.

However, T1 child compliance/noncompliance were not significantly associated with T2 maternal parenting behavior. These findings suggest that during the preschool period, there are unidirectional effects from mothers to children.

유아의 창의적 행동특성에 물리적, 심리적 가정환경이 미치는 영향: 유아의 내적 동기와 외적 동기의 매개효과

임미나(Mina Im),신나나(Nana Shin) 인지발달중재학회 2020 인지발달중재학회지 Vol.11 No.4

연구목적: 본 연구는 물리적, 심리적 가정환경이 유아의 창의적 행동특성에 미치는 직접적 영향과 유아의 내적 동기와 외적 동기를 통한 간접적 영향을 살펴보는 것을 주 목적으로 하였다. 연구방법: 만 4~6세 유아 301명을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였으며, 어머니 보고를 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 구조방정식 모형을 설정하여 변인 간의 구조적 관계를 분석하였으며, 부트스트래핑 방법을 통하여 간접효과의 유의성을 검정하였다. 연구결과: 주요 결과를 요약하면, 가정환경 중 심리적 가정환경이 유아의 창의적 행동특성에 미치는 직접적 영향이 유의하였다. 즉, 심리적으로 지지적인 가정환경일수록 유아가 창의적 행동특성을 더 보였다. 둘째, 물리적, 심리적 가정환경이 유아의 내적 동기를 통해 창의적 행동특성에 미치는 간접적 영향이 유의하였다. 즉, 가정환경이 물리적, 심리적으로 지지적일수록 유아가 높은 내적 동기를 가지고, 내적 동기가 높을수록 창의적 행동특성이 높게 나타났다. 반면 유아의 외적 동기는 창의적 행동특성에 영향을 미치지 않아 매개변인으로 작용하지 않았다. 결론: 본 연구는 가정환경이 유아의 동기를 통해 창의적 행동특성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았으며, 이를 통해 유아기 자녀의 창의성 증진을 위한 가정환경 조성의 중요성을 강조하였다. Objective: This study primarily aimed to explore the direct and indirect effects of physical and psychological home environments through preschoolers’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in creative behavioral characteristics. Methods: A total of 301 (119 boys and 182 girls) children aged 4 to 6 years constituted the study subjects. All the questionnaires, including those on the home environment, children’s motivation, and creative behavioral characteristics, were completed by mothers. Data were analyzed using a structural equation model, and a bootstrapping method was used to test the statistical significance of mediation. Results: First, the psychological home environment had a direct effect on children’s creative behavioral characteristics. Second, both physical and psychological home environments had significant indirect effects on children’s creative behavioral characteristics through intrinsic motivation. Finally, extrinsic motivation did not mediate the relations between the home environment and the preschoolers’ creative behavioral characteristics. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the home environment plays a critical role in predicting children’s creativity, indicating the importance of fostering a supportive home environment.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among maternal autonomy support, preschoolers’ executive function, and preschoolers’ emotional and social competence. In addition, the mediating role of preschoolers’ executive function between maternal autonomy support and preschoolers’ emotional and social competence was investigated. Methods: A total of 245 preschoolers (130 boys and 115 girls) and their mothers participated in this study. Data were collected through maternal reports. Results: First, maternal autonomy support was significantly related to preschoolers’ emotional and social competence. Second, maternal autonomy support was significantly related to preschoolers’ executive function. Third, preschoolers’ executive function was significantly related to emotional and social competence. Fourth, preschoolers’ executive function partially mediated the relationship between maternal autonomy support and preschoolers’ emotional and social competence. Conclusion: These results highlight the importance of executive function in attaining emotional and social competence during the preschool period.
