Abstract:
In this study, we aimed to determine the related role of anxiety and parental resilience on the aggressive tendencies of preschool children during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study sample comprised a total of 293 parents with children aged 4-6 years. Relationships between Preschool Anxiety Scale, Aggression Orientation Scale, and Brief Resilience Scale total and subscale scores were evaluated using Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis. The results of this study show that there is a positive relationship between children\'s aggression tendencies and anxiety levels. We observed weak to moderate correlations between parents\' resilience scores and the children\'s aggression and anxiety scores. Although linear regression analysis indicated no significant effect of parental resilience on children\'s aggressive tendencies, anxiety levels may be related. In addition, study results showed that the physical aggression tendencies of children differed according to their age and the number of children in the family, albeit at a low level. Further studies are needed to identify factors associated with aggression in preschool children.
摘要:
在这项研究中,我们旨在确定在COVID-19大流行期间焦虑和父母心理弹性对学龄前儿童攻击性倾向的相关作用.研究样本共包括293名4-6岁儿童的父母。学龄前焦虑量表之间的关系,侵略取向量表,使用Pearson和Spearman相关分析评估了简要弹性量表的总分和分量表。研究结果表明,儿童的攻击性倾向与焦虑水平呈正相关。我们观察到父母的韧性得分与孩子的攻击性和焦虑得分之间的弱至中度相关性。虽然线性回归分析表明父母的韧性对儿童的攻击性倾向没有显著影响,焦虑水平可能相关。此外,研究结果表明,儿童的身体攻击倾向因其年龄和家庭中儿童的数量而异,虽然水平很低。需要进一步的研究来确定与学龄前儿童攻击性相关的因素。
