Abstract EN

The aim of the research was to understand the relationship between the maltreatment of kindergarten teachers (as perceived by children) and its relationship to the social fears of the children, and to compare the social fears of males and females on the measure of social fears of kindergarten children.

The study sample consisted of 60 boys and girls from (4- 6) years, divided into 32 males and 28 females from governmental, experimental and private schools.

The tools of the study were measures of the maltreatment of kindergarten teachers as perceived by children (prepared by the author) and measure the social fears of the kindergarten children from (4- 6) years (prepared by the author).

The results of the study showed that there is a statistically significant correlation between the total degrees of maltreatment of kindergarten teacher (as perceived by children) in terms of punishment, reprimand, discrimination in treatment and neglect, and social fears with a correlation coefficient of 0.486 at significance level of 0.01.

There were no statistically significant differences between the average grade of males and females on the scale of the social fears of the kindergarten children aged (4- 6) years.

The number of males was 32 with an average grade of 30.00 and the number of females was 28 with an average grade of 31 with a Man- Whitney of 432.000 at a value of 0.812 at a level of significance greater than 0.05.

In this case, we accept the null hypothesis, which indicates that the averages between males and females are equal to the fears and also indicates that there were no statistically significant differences between the average grade of males and females on the scale of social fears.

Therefore, the second hypothesis is accepted, which states that there are no statistically significant differences between the average scores of male and female children in social fears (4- 6) years.
