    The Effects of Turkish Parents' Child Rearing Behavior on School Readiness
    (SAGE Publications Ltd, 2010) POLAT, ÖZGÜL; Polat Ö.
    This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of parents' child rearing behavior on school readiness of 5–6 year-old children in terms of socio-emotional development. The study sample consisted of 300 preschool children at 5, 5.5, and 6 years of age. The results revealed that parents' behaviour with regard to the following activities all have a positive impact on school readiness in terms of socio-emotional dimension: reading books to children, joining in playing games with them, visiting movies and theatres, engaging in family conversations, giving responsibilities to their children with regular following up of these responsibilities, agreeing rules together, and fair use of reward and punishment in child rearing to change behaviors. © 2010 A B Academic Publishers Printed in Great Britain.

    The Relationship Between the Duration of Preschool Education and Primary School Readiness
    (Routledge, 2016) POLAT, ÖZGÜL; Polat Ö., Yavuz E.A.
    Early childhood experiences have a great effect on the course of a child's life. Preschool education can offer benefits for children, particularly those who do not have advantages at home, including benefits related to academic skills, social-emotional development, and communication. Thus, preschool experiences are a potential key to improving school readiness, especially among disadvantaged populations. One outcome of preschool education of interest to educators and families alike is the effect of such experiences on young children's self-concept and self-esteem. This study from Turkey paid particular attention to the effect of the length of time a child spends in preschool attendance on self-concept and school readiness. ©, Copyright Association for Childhood Education International.
