Common Behavioural Problems Among Kindergarten Children: A Theoretical and Analytical Study

Abstract

This study aimed to shed light on the concept of common behavioral problems among kindergarten children. This was achieved through an analysis of psychological literature and previous studies related to the research topic. The research employed a descriptive-analytical approach, reviewing theoretical concepts, types of behavioral problems, their causes, treatment methods, and strategies for mitigating them. The study also analyzed the general trends addressed in previous research. The findings revealed that while behavioral problems among kindergarten children vary in severity and prevalence from one child to another and from one educational environment to another, they are considered a normal phenomenon at this age, provided they do not exceed acceptable limits. The study recommended the importance of early detection of behavioral problems in kindergarten children and addressing them before they worsen and spread to later educational stages. It also emphasized the need to activate the partnership between the family and the kindergarten through continuous communication, given the family's fundamental role in shaping a child's behavior
