ComparativeStudy on School Readiness Research at Home and Abroad:Characteristics,Trends and Prospects
This study employs tools such as COOC,VOSviewer,and CiteSpace to analyze research on school read-iness in both domestic and international contexts,using data from the CNKI and WOS core collection databases.The findings reveal a growing trend in school readiness research worldwide.However,China has yet to establish stable research teams and lags behind other countries in this field.Domestically,research mainly focuses on intro-ducing foreign findings,preschool-to-primary school transitions,kindergarten readiness practices,and new-first graders school adaptation.Internationally,the emphasis is on academic readiness,executive functions,self-regulation,and interventions targeting these areas.Future domestic research is likely to address urban-rural dis-parities,learning quality,senior kindergartners,and home-school collaboration,while international research is expected to concentrate on children's mental health,the impact of family upbringing on school readiness,and the application of meta-analyses.Based on these trends,the paper outlines prospects for the future development of school readiness research in China.
