Ciancio	Early Intervention: Effects Of Behavioral Regulation onLearning and Emerging Self-Competence	2003		.txt	text/plain	227	7	2	The purpose of this study was to establish: (1) that Head Start children's emergent literacy knowledge would benefit from developmentally appropriate and child-centered intervention; (2) that children's emotional expression and regulatory behaviors are important predictors of interindividual differences in within-individual change in emergent literacy knowledge; (3) that warm and supportive navigation through a childcentered intervention would positively affect a child's perceived-self competence; and (4) that regular (i.e., daily) contextual assessment of emergent literacy is predictive of less frequent and more decontextualized assessments of emergent literacy. Preschoolers therefore respond to and learn from age-appropriate literacy-targeted instruction; behavioral and emotional indices are important indicators of individual change in literacy ability; and successful and enjoyable experiences during age-appropriate activities can impact children's perceivedself competence.	cache/9019s18061z.txt	txt/9019s18061z.txt
