- Summary:
-
Part of a larger investigation of day care climate and children's social and emotional behavior in Sweden, this study interviewed 99 staff members at 12 day care centers about their work experiences and opinions of their work. Interviews focused on the system by which decisions are made, variation of working tasks, the meaningfulness of work, the goals of the preschool activity, the possibility of personal development for staff, the communication system, and the strain in work. Most of the personnel were to a great extent satisfied with their working conditions. Staff members thought that they had the same work tasks, despite differences in the education of preschool teachers, nurses, and special teachers guiding children's use of leisure time. Work goals were of a general nature, mostly concerning care of the children. Half of the group considered experience as being more important than education. Most respondents felt that they had too little contact with central administration and that they did not get enough feedback in their work. The splitting up of the day by different routines and the arrivals and departures of children and adults at different times were seen as strain factors. Another strain factor was working in groups of children in which the age span was very large (1 through 10 years). Personnel also indicated that they received too little further education and had too little time for work with individual children. The survey instrument is included. (RH)
