Dijital Oyun Popüler mi? Ebeveynlerin Çocukları İçin Oyun Tercihlerinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Digital play has entered into houses and the lives of children and brought many debates with it. In spite of debates the number of research is very limited. For this reason, the purpose of this research is to examine parents' play preferences for their children by focusing on the digital play. 351 parents having a child attending preschools participated in this research. The data were collected through the Parental Play Preference Scale developed by the paired comparison method. Two-way ANOVA and MANOVA were used for analysis. Research findings showed that parents mostly favored constructive play and digital play received the lowest preference scores. It has been determined that education and working conditions of parents and age and gender of children were influential on play preferences. Play preferences and daily times for different play types were found to be related. In the light of these findings, home-based awareness-raising activities and the creation and dissemination of social areas were suggested.

A qualitative case study about overuse of digital play at home

“…Digital play includes playing digital games and applications, watching, and making videos, and taking pictures. This new form of play has become an increasingly popular and cultural context for young children (Edwards, 2018 ; Işıkoğlu Erdoğan, 2019 ; Heider & Jalongo, 2015 ). Currently, researchers argue that digital play is just a play for children, and their traditional play activities and engagement with digital play become interwoven (Bird & Edwards, 2014 ; Edwards, 2018 ; Marsh, 2010 ).…”

“…In line with these recommendations, more than two hours of daily use of digital devices was considered as overuse in this study. Several studies have also shown that young children are often exposed to the screen for more than the recommended time (Işıkoğlu Erdoğan, 2019 ; Lauricella, Wartella, & Rideout, 2015 ; Montag & Walla, 2016 ).…”

An Examination of Digital Parenting Behavior in Parents with Preschool Children in the Context of Lifelong Learning

“…The questionnaire does not borrow questions from another instrument and was developed in accordance with steps for developing items in measurement and evaluation tools [78]. A literature review was conducted in order to establish validity by deriving from recent studies in the same field [5,24,25,[79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98]. In addition, informal meetings were carried out with preschool teachers who have preschool children of their own, in order to consult their evaluations regarding digital parenting.…”

Çocukların Dijital veya Dijital Olmayan Oyun Tercihleri ve Davranışları

“…Güncel bir araştırmada 3-6 yaş çocukların %64.3'ünün cep telefonuyla oyun oynadıkları, %87.4'ünün cep telefonuyla çizgi film izledikleri, %34.6'sının ebeveynlerinin varsa tablet/bilgisayarı kullanmak istedikleri saptanmıştır (Kadan ve Aral, 2018). Benzeri bir araştırmada 4-6 yaş çocukların ortalama 182 dakika ekran karşısında geçirdikleri saptanmıştır (Işıkoğlu Erdoğan, 2019). Araştırmalar ebeveynlerin dijital araçları çocuklarına satın aldıkları ve kullanmalarına izin verdikleri halde dijital oyunlarla ilgili endişeler taşıdıkları saptanmıştır (Günüç ve Atlı, 2018;Işıkoğlu Erdoğan, 2019;Nevski ve Siibak, 2016;Terras ve Ramsay, 2016).…”

Benzer şekilde, ailelerin dijital oyunların eğitim amaçlı kullanılabileceğine dair görüşleri düşük düzeyde bulunmuştur (Aral ve Doğan Keskin, 2018).…”
