DiaS-K – Diagnostics of Self-Regulation in Preschool
In the project DiaS-K, preschool teachers and doctors who carry out school entry examinations were interviewed in order to find out what instruments for diagnosing self-regulation in preschool age must look like so that they are usable for practitioners.
Project Description
Self-regulation is the ability to adapt one's own actions to situational requirements and rules and enables children, for example, to follow specific instructions or to work independently. Self-regulation is therefore important for school readiness. However, there are hardly any instruments (such as tests or questionnaires) in German with which self-regulation can be measured in preschool age.
In the DiaS-K project, preschool teachers in kindergartens and doctors that are responsible for the school entrance examination were interviewed in order to find out which instruments are already being used and what new ones would have to look like to diagnose self-regulation. To do so, we first conducted an online survey with a questionnaire and then in-depth qualitative interviews.
