Abstract: | IntroductionBased on the model of Yeates et al. (2007), and on behavioural categories included in several measures of emotional abilities or emotional regulation, a new methodological design was conceived to allow eliciting and observing the child's socioemotional regulation, in three interactive contexts (neutral, cooperative, competitive) and his/her abilities in socioemotional problem-solving.MethodThe validation of the new coding grid was derived from the coding of 90 videos about socioemotional behaviours displayed by 30 typically developing preschoolers.ResultsThe agreement of the judges between themselves and the factorial analyses showed the proper internal validity of the grid.ConclusionOur results showed how this design is relevant for assessing the child's socioemotional regulation. The discussion emphasized its advantages and limits for researchers and practitioners. |
