Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to identify 1) risk factors for hindering the development of children's sociability and 2) protective factors which might compensate for such risks and constitute a possible safety net. For this study, a longitudinal survey on five hundred and thirty children of preschool age was carried out over five years. To examine the essential factors contributing to the development of children's sociability, the survey focused on the interaction between personality traits of each child and the various environments surrounding them. The results showed that close relationships between a family and a local community could be a safety net for the development of children's sociability, while maladaptive parenting and the lack of peer experience could be risk factors. The survey also suggests that pre-school institutes can play a major part in uniting parents and local communities.
