Abstract
Social and emotional learning is one of the crucial areas of preschool children's subsequent learning and lifelong development. In this paper, we used the literature review method to study the SEL of preschool children from three aspects: theoretical basis, influencing factors and interventions. Specifically, the theoretical framework of SEL mainly divided into three types, namely the five-dimensional, the six-dimensional and the seven-dimensional theoretical framework, which provide theory for the concept and dimensions of SEL. Based on ecosystem theory, it is found that three main factors of individual (gender, age, personality traits), family (family background, parenting behavior, the quality of parent-child interaction) and school (teachers, peers) have impact on SEL. Combined with the influencing factors, this paper proposes the individual and group interventions as the main interventions on improving SEL. This paper provides theoretical foundation for the future research on SEL of preschool children.
