Abstract:

Abstract This study aims to study the relationship between primary school 5th grade students with their mothers with their self-perceptions. The study group formed a sample of 431 high school 5th grade students aged 12-13 years. The data was collected using Piers Harris’s Child Self-Cover Measure (PHC) and Kerns Safe Connection Measure-KGBÖ. In data analysis, the relationship between the two measurement sets was determined by the correlation ratio as well as the classification model and classification techniques for the estimation of data trends were used by the decision tree CHAID algorithm. As a result, it was found that in the middle childhood, the safe connection to the mother and self-perception are related to the father's profession; the family structure, birth order and gender are important variables in the child's self-perception. In the middle childhood, it has been found that the safe connection pattern has influenced the development of high self-perception.
