Abstract

Behavior regulation skills are associated with early academic skills in pre-school children in the studies. In addition to this, limited number of studies has been shown relations between behavioral regulation skills and early literacy skills; phonological awareness, matching images and pre-writing skills. The study aims at assessing the relation between phonological awareness, matching images and pre-writing skills which are early literacy skills and behavior regulation skills in preschool children with regard to age, gender, period of attending school, number of siblings.144 pre-school children, 68 of whom are girls and 76 boys, participated from Bursa central districts in the research. Results show that behavior regulation skills are associated with phonological awareness and pre-writing skills. When age increases, phonological awareness scores and matching images scores increase; according to number of siblings, there is a statistically significant difference pre-writing skills scores; period of attending school does not affect phonological awareness scores, matching images scores and pre-writing skills; there is a statistically significant difference between pre-writing scores by gender; the difference shows that girls’ pre-writing scores are higher than the boys’ pre-writing scores.

Keterampilan Penting Sebelum Anak Siap Menulis

“…Berdasarkan penelitian (Mohammed & Al-Noori, 2020) menyatakan kemampuan menulis anak akan berkembang dengan brainstorming dimana akan membantu anak mengembangkan ide tulisan. Adanya relevansi antara keterampilan menulis dengan kesadaran fonologis (Yalçıntaş sezgin et al, 2019). Sudut pandang berbeda tentang gender membuktikan bahwa identifikasi keterampilan menulis anak perempuan lebih baik disbanding anak laki-laki (Adams & Simmons, 2019).…”

An Examination of Self-Regulation and Higher-Order Cognitive Skills as Predictors of Preschool Children’s Early Academic Skills

“…To determine children's behaviour regulation skills, the "Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders" (HTKS) Task Measurement Tool, which was developed by Ponitz et al (2009) and whose Turkish validity and reliability study was carried out by Sezgin and Demiriz (2015), was used. This measurement tool has strong reliability (Ponitz et al, 2009;Matthews, Marulis, & Williford, 2014;Montroy, Bowles, Skibbe, & Foster, 2014;Yalçıntaş-Sezgin, Ulus, & Şahin, 2019;Wanless et al, 2011). It is an easy-to-use self-regulation measurement tool.…”

A meta-analysis of the validity of the Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders task in predicting young children's academic performance

“…Several researchers have tested the reliability of the HTKS, and the data show strong psychometric properties with little variability across studies, including coefficient alpha, test–retest reliability, and interrater reliability (Cameron et al, 2012 ; McClelland et al, 2014 ; Lipsey et al, 2017 ; Zhang and Rao, 2017 ; Hee et al, 2018 ; Liu et al, 2018 ; Spiegel and Lonigan, 2018 ; Cerino et al, 2019 ; Sezgin et al, 2019 ). Some studies have also found the HTKS predictive of academic outcomes and significantly related to children's working memory, attentional flexibility, and inhibitory control (Cameron Ponitz et al, 2008 , 2009 ; Gestsdottir et al, 2014 ; McClelland et al, 2014 , 2021 ; Schmitt et al, 2014 , 2017 ; Fuhs et al, 2015 ; Lipsey et al, 2017 ; Hee et al, 2018 ; Gonzales et al, 2021 ).…”
