This study was conducted in the relational screening model, using the method of the technique of observing bullying and play behaviors of children in kindergarten appearing during play. Data of the study were collected using Demographic Family Information Form, The Child Behavior Scale (Ladd and Profilet, 1996) and the Early Childhood Play and Bullying Behavior Observation Method developed by the researcher. Furthermore, the Preschool Social Behavior Scale ? Teacher Form (Crick, Casas and Mosher,1997) and Preschool Play Behavior Scale (Coplan and Rubin, 1998) were used to calculate the interrater reliability (teacher-observer) for bullying and play behaviors ascertained with the Early Childhood Play and Bullying Behavior Observation Method, which is the observation method of the study. The study group consisted of 55 students attending the Beytepe Kindergarten and permitted to participate in the study by their families. In line with the purpose of the study, data of 25 students not demonstrating physical bullying during play observation and 22 students not demonstrating relational bullying were excluded from the study. As the behavior of students constituting the study group and demonstrating 2 or more aggressive behaviors during play observation are considered to be continuous, it was called bullying. The bullying and play behavior of children separated into two different groups with high physical and relational scores have been examined according to demographic variables and the relation between play and bullying behavior and peer relations and the predictors of bullying behavior have been attempted to be explained based on the relational screening model.
