Abstract
Emotion talk is a research-based strategy aimed at improving young children’s social and emotional development. To date, there are no systematic reviews that document the effectiveness of teacher’s emotion talk with young children in early childhood classrooms. In this systematic review we examined the literature on teacher-facilitated emotion talk as a primary intervention to improve young children’s social and emotional development. We identified six manuscripts that met our inclusion criteria. Results indicate emotion talk can improve social and emotional skills for young children in areas such as emotional knowledge and comprehension, prosocial behavior, and classroom engagement.
期刊介绍:
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education (TECSE) communicates information about early intervention, which is defined broadly and includes services provided to (a) infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who are at risk for or display developmental delays and disabilities and (b) the families of such youngsters. TECSE includes articles on personnel preparation, policy issues, and operation of intervention programs. The intent is to publish information that will improve the lives of young children and their families. Manuscripts from (a) diverse theoretical perspectives, (b) all disciplines related to early intervention, and (c) all authors with information of value to the early intervention community are welcome. There are two topical issues—which address an identified problem, trend, or subject of concern and importance to early intervention—and two non-topical issues.
