Resumo: | This study presents the indicators of behavior, anxiety and social skills of 38 kindergarteners (52.6% girls, mean age 5.34 years; SD = 0.48), enrolled in a municipal school located in the southeastern region of Brazil. The children’s parents/caregivers (86.4% mothers) and teachers completed the instruments: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Preschool Anxiety Scale (PAS) and Preschool Kindergarten Behavior Scale (PKBS-BR). Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Most children were classified in the non-clinical range for behavior problems and anxiety. The perceptions of the children’s parents/caregivers and teachers diverged, with guardians more frequently identifying deficits in total anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorders, fear of physical harm and separation anxiety (PAS), external problems and hyperactivity (SDQ), and Internalizing and externalizing problems (PKBS). A correlation was found between anxiety, behavior problems and social skills, reinforcing there is interdependence between aspects of social-emotional development. These findings can support interventions at schools intended to promote prosocial behaviors. |

Los responsables (86,4% madres) y profesoras, respondieron a los instrumentos: Cuestionario de Capacidades y Dificultades (SDQ), Escala de Ansiedad Pre-Escolar (PAS) y Escala de Conductas Sociales de Pre-Escolares (PKBS-BR). Los datos fueron analizados por estadística descriptiva e inferencial. La mayoría de los niños fueron referidos en el rango normal para problemas de comportamiento y ansiedad. Los responsables y las profesoras divergieron, con los primeros asignando más déficits en ansiedad total, trastornos obsesivos-compulsivos, miedos de daño físico y ansiedad de separación (PAS), problemas externos y hiperactividad (SDQ), y problemas internalizantes y externalizadores (PKBS). Se verificó correlación entre ansiedad, problemas conductuales y habilidades sociales, reforzando la interdependencia entre aspectos del desarrollo socioemocional. Estos hallazgos pueden subsidiar propuestas de intervención para promover comportamientos pro-sociales en la escuela.Este estudo descreveu indicadores comportamentais, de ansiedade e habilidades sociais de crianças pré-escolares, a partir do relato dos responsáveis e professoras. Responsáveis e professoras de 38 crianças (52,6% meninas, média de idade de 5,34; DP = 0,48), matriculadas em escola municipal, responderam aos instrumentos: Questionário de Capacidades e Dificuldades (SDQ), Escala de Ansiedade Pré Escolar (PAS) e Escala de Comportamentos Sociais de Pré-Escolares (PKBS-BR). Os dados foram analisados por estatística descritiva e inferencial. Resultados indicam que a maioria das crianças foi referida na faixa normal para problemas comportamentais e ansiedade. Responsáveis e professoras divergiram, com os responsáveis atribuindo mais déficits em Ansiedade Total, Perturbações Obsessivo-Compulsivas, Medo de Dano Físico e Ansiedade de Separação (PAS); Problemas Externalizantes e Hiperatividade (SDQ); e Problemas Internalizantes e Externalizantes (PKBS). Verificou-se correlação entre as variáveis, reforçando a interdependência entre aspectos do desenvolvimento socioemocional.
