In this course, ‘Child Psychology: Socialization and Adaptation to School’, we will study the role of culture and society in developing a child's social behavior. We then explore how the child's growing experiences enable the acquisition of the skills needed to maintain interpersonal relationships. We will discuss how social development begins with the child's self-knowledge and examine some critical social problems that arise from children's lack of social skills.

The course will then explain the classification of social skills and their different functions. We review the list of social traits and identify their characteristics and dimensions. We will demonstrate how children can effectively develop social skills under various possible environmental conditions. The course then investigates the factors that influence the development of social skills, such as family, peers and social status. If you are wondering how preschool-aged children form relationships with their peers, we will analyze the factors that influence their development.

The final section discusses the types of peer relationships in detail. We will learn about the main personality traits that influence peer acceptance. Do you want to know how to handle inappropriate behavior in children in the first few days after they enter kindergarten? We will investigate bullying, how to address this and explore the critical factors that influence adaptation to preschool. This course is ideal for parents, preschool teachers and child psychologists. So why wait? Start your learning journey today.
