Abstract

Emotional and behavioral problems significantly impact children’s mental health development. The application of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) in intervening in children’s emotional and behavioral problems is receiving increasing attention. This study conducted an 8-session SEL intervention over 4 weeks (twice weekly) with three children exhibiting emotional and behavioral problems. The Rutter Child Behavior Scale (Parent Version) and the Social Responsiveness Scale were used to measure the intervention’s effectiveness on children’s emotional and behavioral problems. Analysis results indicated that the overall intervention effect was not significant, but it had a certain degree of improving effect on children’s emotional and behavioral problems, such as reduced aggressive behavior and enhanced emotion regulation ability.
