The article "The Dynamics of Emotional Development at
Preschool Children" presents, selectively, various scientific
approaches related to the concept of "emotions" in general and,
specifically, during the preschool period. It reviews some
contemporary debates concerning the content characteristics of
emotional development dynamics and the functional nature of
emotions in preschool children. Exploring scientific approaches
to the concept of "emotions" in psychopedagogy, in search of its
practical essence, generates a perspective that encompasses as
much of the relevant field as possible and determines the basis
for emotional development in children. As a result, criteria for
evaluating emotions were identified and examined: perception,
understanding, recognition of emotional states, and social
emotions. Analyzing the issue at hand is not intended to be
polemical but aims to demonstrate why it is necessary to revisit
this topic, which is not actually new.
