Abstract

<p>The article focuses on the results of an empirical study of preschoolers’ fears through the eyes of their parents. The research was conducted on the basis of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research on Contemporary Childhood in MSUPE in November 2022 – February 2023. Research methods included a questionnaire for parents of preschoolers elaborated by the research group and “Method of Regulating Fears and Anxiety in Children” by T. Rudskaya. 366 parents of preschoolers from different regions of the Russian Federation took part in the survey. The research provides information about the peculiarities of fears in contemporary Russian preschoolers, as well as on the association between children’s fears and such aspects of upbringing strategies as parents’ reactions to children’s fears and children’s “bad” behavior. In general, the empirical data testifies, that preschoolers’ fears are profoundly connected with the quality of parent-child interactions, which agrees with the results of Russian and foreign researchers.</p>
