An Investigation of the Relationship between Early Childhood Teachers' Classroom Management Profiles and Humor Styles
Journal of Teacher Education and Educators, v12 n1 p29-52 2023
The aim is to examine the relationship between early childhood teachers' classroom management profiles and humor styles. A correlational research methodology was utilized. 274 early childhood teachers working in ECE institutions within Turkey included. The Classroom Management Profiles Scale and Humor Styles Questionnaire were applied, and data were analyzed through t-test and ANOVA. As a result, laissez-faire and self-enhancing humor were the most common among participants. Even though there was a positive correlation between affiliative and self-defeating humor styles, the authoritarian profile was negatively correlated with laissez-faire. The indifferent profile was negatively correlated with the laissez-faire profile, while the affiliative humor style was positively correlated with the authoritarian and indifferent profile. Regarding other humor styles, there were no significant correlations observed. By increasing the number of study participants and using qualitative methods, the results from this current study can be supported, and humor styles can be used for effective classroom management.
