Research questions of this study were: (1) What is the level of 48-72 months of age children’s self regulation skill? (2) Is there any significant differeces between 48-72 months of children’s self regulation skill according to age? (3) Is there any significant differeces between 48-72 months of children’s self regulation skill according to gender? (4)Is there any significant differeces between 48-72 months of children’s self regulation skill according to order of birth? (5) Is there any significant differeces between 4872 months of children’s self regulation skill according to mothers’ education level? (6) Is there any significant differeces between 48-72 months of children’s self regulation skill according to fathers’ education level? The sample of the study was 120 children who are 48-72 months of age. Preschool Self Regulation Assessment Tool and Personal Information Form were used to collect the data. Mean and standart deviation scores were calculated to examine the self regulation skill level of children. t test for independent groups was implemented to investigate whether children’s self regulation skill show a significant difference according to age and gender. ANOVA was implemented to investigate whether children’s self regulation skill show a significant difference according to order of birth, mothers’ and fathers’ education level. It was seen that chlidren’s self regulation scores were high on two dimensions of the PSRA (attention/impulse control & positive emotion). It was examined that there is no significant difference between self regulation scores according to gender. 48-60 months of age children positive emotion scores were higher than 60-72months of age children. Children who have older sister/brother have higher attention/impulse control but lower positive emotion scores. Children whose mothers’ education level are high have better attention/impulse control scores. And children whose fathers’ education level are high have better attention/impulse control and positive emotion scores
