CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
- Background of the study
Education is the basic mechanism for enhancing the population quality of a nation, and education during childhood is the foundation for the formation of human labor-force quality. Childhood education not only affects the achievement and happiness at the individual level, but also shapes the labor force quality and capacity of innovation (Heckman 2011) to determine the potentiality of the development of a nation.
Social skills enable social adaptation, create and maintain existing social relationships, and have long- and short-term effects over an individual’s life. Therefore, preschool age is a crucial period for the development of social skills among children. Therefore, the development of social skills enables children to create successful relationships with others, helps with school readiness, and improves adaptation to the formal school setting as well as academic performance. A lack of social skills in children leads to feelings of loneliness, subsequent mental and behavior problems, poor interactions with their parents, teachers, and peers, and school maladjustment. Therefore, it is required to investigate preschool children’s social skills and identify social deficiencies to design interventions aiming at the improvement of their social skills and quality of life, and adaptation to the environment at early ages. The assessment of social skills is performed through the measurement of cooperation, assertion, and self-control
The development of social skills starts at an early age and is different between males and females. For example, in girls, it is faster than boys, but Iranian studies have found no relationships between gender differences and the development of social skills. In addition, the cultural background influences the display of social skills in different social environments. The socialization process in non-Western contexts happens through adherence to the expectations of parents and the society, but in industrialized societies, authoritarian status has a lower effect on the parent–child relationship. Nevertheless, a few studies have examined social skills. Therefore, there is a need to assess gender differences in relation to social skills in various cultural backgrounds.
