OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This observational study aims to examine developmental status, sensory processing, and sleep quality in preschool children aged 3 to 6 years across different caregiving models. Children raised primarily by first-degree relatives, second-degree relatives, caregivers, or in daycare settings will be compared. Data will be collected using the Denver II Developmental Screening Test, the Dunn Sensory Profile, and the Tayside Children's Sleep Questionnaire. The study will also evaluate the relationships among developmental status, sensory processing, and sleep quality, and explore whether caregiving model is associated with differences in these outcomes.
