This study aims to evaluate the impact of a structured SEL program on primary school students' social-emotional development.
Quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design with 173 second-grade students.
Participants were divided into three experimental groups receiving the SEL program and three control groups continuing regular activities.
Data were gathered using the Social-Emotional Development Scale and analyzed with ANOVA and ANCOVA.
No significant differences in pretest scores confirmed baseline equivalence.
Posttest scores indicated significant improvements in favor of the experimental groups, particularly in social skills and self-regulation.
The intervention effect remained significant after controlling for pretest scores, without notable improvements in emotional awareness.
