The relationship of moral attitudes and ideas of older preschoolers about socially approved behavior

The author presents the results of theoretical and practical research concerning the problem of the formation and development of morality and moral attitudes in the early stages of personality development -during preschool childhood. The appeal to the regulatory framework of the federal and regional levels confirms the importance of its decision. It is stated that a relationship exists between the level of development of moral attitudes in older preschoolers (6-7 years old) and their ideas about socially approved behavior. The significance of this parallel is emphasized in the aspect of controlled socialization carried out on the basis of a preschool educational organization. At the level of empirical research, the specifics of mastering the basic moral imperatives (kindness, anger, generosity, greed, diligence, laziness, truthfulness, deceit) are proved, taking into account the gender of the child, their relationship with understanding the norms of behavior in society. A hypothesis (as a prospect for further research) about the presence of a gender context in the formation of a moral attitude as a condition for positive early socialization is put forward.
