“…Drawing is one of children’s major means of expression. Children have drawings at their disposal and have been repeatedly associated with the communication of their personality and emotions; it is a message, a sample of spontaneous speech, and free expression (Fineberg, 1998: 55; Jolley and Zhang, 2012 as mentioned at Tzampazi et al (2013). TV is depicted in children’s drawings in a number of ways that sparkles the variety of the features that children attribute to television.…”

“…The quantitative analysis describes a measurable dimension of the drawings so as the reader to achieve a numerable perception of some of the characteristics of children drawings. This methodological procedure has, also, been followed at the works of Daskalaki et al (2011), Tzampazi et al (2013, 2015). In order to examine possible statistical relationships between the quantitative aspects of the drawings we used the chi square test.…”

This research illustrates how young children conceptualize the image and role of television in their lives. Building upon Kress and Van Leeuwen’s theoretical framework of Visual Grammar, 70 drawings of children from kindergartens of Thessaloniki were analyzed both qualitative and quantitative. The research found that children sketch a rich and varied profile of TV. Children’s open–ended construction of meaning surfaced content that reflected themes such as: the profile of the journalist, emotions connected to television, the use of TV, TV as an object, TV as a children’s program or an adult program. Future research should also address the challenge of investigating the diverse and rapidly changing media landscape to which the current generation of children experience.

This research illustrates how young children conceptualize the image and role of ideal television in their life. Building upon Kress and Van Leeuwen’s (2006) theoretical framework of Visual Grammar, 70 drawings of children from kindergartens of Thessaloniki were analyzed both qualitative and quantitative. Children’s pictorial depictions of their understanding of dream TV suggested they viewed the desirable TV quite close to the traditional TV that has two main aims: entertainment and environmental education. Moreover, the concept of dream TV was closely defined by play both as outdoor activity and organized sports but also toys advertisements. The results of this research revealed that children sketch a quite positive and powerful image of dream TV painted with vivid colors and joyful pictures which has an active role in their lives.

“…Bilindiği üzere bebeklik döneminden itibaren çocuklar bedenlerinin farkında olmaya başlamakta ve kendi bedenlerini diğerlerinden ayırt edebilmektedir. Daha sonraki yıllarda, özellikle okul öncesi dönemle birlikte yakın sosyal çevre (aile üyeleri ve akranların beden algısından) ve medyanın da etkisiyle çocuklar kendi bedenlerini ve başkalarının bedenlerini değerlendirmeye yönelik yargılara sahip olmaktadırlar (Harrison ve Hefner, 2006;Tzampazi, Kyridis ve Christodoulou, 2013). Aşağıda çocukların beden algısı üzerinde etkili faktörlere ilişkin açıklamalara yer verilmiştir.…”

In this study, the factors affecting the body image of children in the preschool period, the effects of these factors on children and the research methods and measurement tools related to the determination of body image in the preschool period are discussed. All of the positive or negative evaluations about a person's body constitute his body image. Although it is thought that body image and body dissatisfaction in individuals generally start in adolescence, studies conducted in recent years indicate that body image starts in the preschool period. When the relevant literature was examined, it was seen that satisfaction or dissatisfaction with body image in preschool children was affected by factors such as family, peers and especially the media. If body dissatisfaction is not intervened at early ages, low self-esteem, unhealthy eating habits or substance addiction can be seen in middle childhood and adolescence. Therefore, examining children's body image in preschool period is of great importance in terms of early intervention. However, in Turkey, it has been observed that the researches on body image focus heavily on adolescence, and the studies on body image in the preschool period are quite limited. The main reason for this limitation is the inadequacy of measurement tools to determine the body image of preschool children in Turkey. At this point, the present study is important in terms of presenting examples from the relevant literature on children's body image in preschool period and introducing research methods and measuring tools that can be used to examine body image in early childhood.
