Preescolares, problemas de conducta, prácticas de crianza, habilidades cognitivas, ajuste socio-emocional.Resumen
Introducción. Una de las principales razones por las que los padres solicitan la asistencia psicológica de sus hijos es la existencia de problemas de conducta. Aunque dichos problemas suelen aparecer cuando los niños comienzan la etapa escolar, se ha observado el desarrollo de los mismos desde la infancia temprana en algunos niños, con un pronóstico particularmente negativo.
Método. Los participantes de este estudio fueron 175 preescolares de entre 4 y 5 años, con y sin problemas de conducta. Las variables estudiadas fueron habilidades cognitivas relacionadas con el aprendizaje, actitudes y prácticas de crianza.
Resultados. Los resultados demuestran diferencias significativas entre grupos en todos los aspectos estudiados, haciendo evidente que los problemas de conducta tienen un impacto significativo en la vida familiar y que se generalizan a diferentes contextos del funcionamiento del niño.
Discusión y Conclusiones. Los preescolares con problemas de conducta presentan dificultades en el dominio de ciertas habilidades cognitivas y en la adquisición de actitudes relacionadas con el aprendizaje. El estudio también señala la importancia de las prácticas de crianza y de las expectativas de los padres sobre las capacidades de sus hijosDescargas
