ENCOURAGING POSITIVE SELF - IMAGE OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN

V diplomski nalogi smo želeli ugotoviti, kateri načini za spodbujanje pozitivne samopodobe so najpogostejši in najučinkovitejši v predšolskem obdobju. Pri izdelavi diplomskega dela smo uporabili deskriptivno in komparativno metodo proučevanja ter analizo primarnih virov. V sklopu diplomskega dela smo potrdili vse zastavljene hipoteze in tako ugotovili, da pri večini otrok v predšolskem obdobju prevladuje pozitivna samopodobada je večina predšolskih otrok usmerjena predvsem na telesno samopodoboda se načini spodbujanja pozitivne samopodobe pri deklicah razlikujejo od tistih pri dečkih in da vzgojitelji pomembno vplivajo na oblikovanje otrokove samopodobe.In the paper we also wanted to discover what means of encouraging positive self-image are the most common and the most efficient in the pre-school period.The descriptive and comparative method of studying was used when preparing the diploma paper as well as analysis of primary sources. Within the diploma paper we confirmed all previously set hypotheses and discovered that with majority of preschool children positive self-image prevailsthat most of preschool children are directed towards body imagethat means of encouraging positive self-image with girls differs from those with boysand that preschool teachers have an important role in the development of the children’s self-image
