Araştırmanın amacı, okul öncesi dönem çocuklarının akran ilişkileri değişkenlerinin (olumlu sosyal davranış, korkulu-kaygılı davranış, dışlanma, saldırganlık, asosyal davranış, aşırı hareketlilik) bazı demografik değişkenler (cinsiyet, yaş, okul türü) açısından ele alınmasıdır. Araştırmanın örneklem grubunda, 174 kız, 183 erkek olmak üzere 357 çocuk yer almaktadır. Araştırmada, betimsel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre aşırı hareketlilik ve saldırganlık düzeylerinde cinsiyetler arasında anlamlı farklılık belirlenmiştir. Aşırı hareketlilik ve saldırganlık değişkenlerinde erkek çocuklarının puan ortalamasının kız akranlarına göre daha yüksek olduğu ortaya konulmuştur. Araştırmada yer alan altı akran ilişkisi değişkeninin ikisinde cinsiyetler arasında farklılık bulunurken dördünde anlamlı farklılık bulunmamıştır. Araştırmada yer alan altı akran ilişkisi (olumlu sosyal davranış, korkulu-kaygılı davranış, dışlanma, saldırganlık, asosyal davranış, aşırı hareketlilik) değişkeninin tamamında, 4, 5 ve 6 yaş grupları çocuklar arasında anlamlı düzeyde farklılık bulunmuştur. Tüm akran ilişkisi değişkenlerinde en yüksek puan ortalamaları 4 yaşa, en düşük puan ortalamaları 6 yaşa aittir. Araştırma kapsamında ele alınan akran ilişkisi değişkenlerinin tamamında özel anaokuluna devam eden çocukların puan ortalamalarının, anasınıfı ve bağımsız anaokuluna devam eden çocuklara göre daha yüksek olarak belirlenmiştir.
The aim of the study was to examine peer relationship variables (prosocial behavior, anxiety-fearful behavior, exclusion, aggression, asocial behavior, hyperactivity) of preschool children in current living conditions in terms of some demographic variables (gender, age and school type). The sample group of the study consisted of 357 children (174 girls and 183 boys). The descriptive survey model was used in the study. According to the results of the study, a significant difference was found between genders in hyperactivity and aggression levels. The mean scores of boys for hyperactivity and aggression variables were higher than those of their female peers. In one of the two peer relationship variables, in which there was a significant difference by gender, girls had higher scores in one (prosocial behavior) and boys had higher scores in the other (hyperactivity). While there was a difference between genders in two of the six peer relationship variables in the study, there was no significant difference in four variables. In all six peer relationship variables (prosocial behavior, anxiety-fearful behavior, exclusion, aggression, asocial behavior and hyperactivity), a significant difference was found between children in the 4, 5 and 6 age groups. In all peer relationship variables, the highest mean scores belonged to 4-years old and the lowest mean scores belonged to 6-year-olds. In all peer relationship variables considered within the scope of this research, the mean scores of children attending private kindergartens were higher than those of kindergartens attached to primary schools and independent kindergartens.
