Mother-Child and Teacher-Child Relationships and Their Associations with School Adjustment in Pre-school

“…Some studies conducted in Turkey related to pre-school children's school adjustment have been from different point of views that concentrate on various variables likely to influence this process such as gender (Yoleri, 2015), relationships with and acceptance from peers (Gülay & Erten, 2011;Yoleri, 2015), social skills (Gülay, 2011), behavioral problems (Yoleri, 2015), and mothers' attitudes (Gülay-Ogelman, Önder, Seçer, & Erten, 2013).

“…These studies investigated the relationship between children's levels of a adjustment to school and peer relationships (Gülay, 2011a), levels of exposure to peer violence (Yoleri, 2014), and social skills (Gülay, 2011b).
