Identifier	Thesis 1564
Author	Brawley, Lisa
Title	Situational correlates of overt aggression, relational aggression and prosocial behavior among preschool children / Lisa Brawley
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	1999
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	The purpose of this thesis was to examine the relationship between the amount of teacher imposed structure in day care activities and the amount and type of aggression and prosocial behaviors that children show. In a nursery school setting, 20 children between three and five years of age were observed during two structured activities: circle time and art, and during two unstructured activities: indoor and outdoor free-play. The following behaviors were recorded: overt aggression, relational aggression and prosocial behavior. It was predicted that significantly higher frequencies of aggression and prosocial behaviors would occur in the two unstructured situations (because of the increased availability of interaction with other children) and significantly lower amounts of aggression and prosocial behavior would occur in the two structured situations. The correlation of day care activities and children's behavior was analyzed using three repeated measures analyses of variance, one for each behavior. All three analyses were significant. Less aggression and prosocial behaviors occurred in the highly structured activity (circle time) compared with the unstructured activities (free-play). It was concluded that the amount of structure in a child care setting is related to the amount of aggressive and prosocial behavior preschool children show. Implications for practices in preschool settings were discussed.
