Özet

Güçlü sosyal ve duygusal becerilere sahip çocuklar; akranlarıyla ve yetişkinlerle daha olumlu ilişkilere ve daha olumlu duygusal uyum ve ruh sağlığına sahip olmakta, okullarda daha iyi performans göstermektedirler. Bu becerilerin gelişimi çocukluğun ilk yıllarında başlar, çocukluk ve ergenlik boyunca, ilişkiler ve sosyal çevre tarafından etkilenerek devam eder. Okullarda, sosyal ve duygusal gelişim ile akademik gelişim birbirine bağlı olarak sağlanabilir.  Araştırma nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini Bursa ve Uşak illerindeki 4. sınıfa devam eden öğrenciler oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemi ise amaçlı örneklem yöntemlerinden ölçüt örneklem yönteminden yararlanılarak elde edilmiştir. Araştırmaya Bursa’dan 258, Uşak’tan 200 öğrenci katılmıştır. Bu çalışmada 4. sınıf öğrencilerinin sosyal duygusal öğrenme becerilerinin cinsiyete, sosyo-ekonomik düzeye ve büyük şehirde ya da küçük şehirde yaşama durumlarına göre farklılık gösterip göstermediği araştırılmıştır. Araştırmada 4.sınıftaki öğrencilerin Sosyal‐Duygusal Öğrenme becerilerini belirlemek üzere Coryn, Spybrook, Evergreen ve Blinkiewicz (2009) tarafından geliştirilen ve Akın, Arslan ve Demir (2012) tarafından uyarlanan Sosyal Duygusal Öğrenme Ölçeği (SDÖÖ) kullanılmıştır.
