dc.description.abstractThis cross-national pilot study evaluated an outdoor-integrated Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) program across nine preschool sites in Slovakia, Spain, and Malta using a two-wave unlinked pre-post design analyzed as independent cross-sectional samples at the group level. Children’s perceived prosocial behavior (teacher and parent ratings; QSPBPCH) and self-reported psychosomatic complaints (SCL) were assessed in parallel. Scoring followed established protocols (available-case means; reverse-coded items), with QSPBPCH demonstrating adequate-to-excellent reliability and SCL moderate reliability. Site fixed-effects ordinary least squares models with site-clustered standard errors indicated a directionally positive POST shift in perceived prosocial behavior and a small, nonsignificant negative shift in psychosomatic complaints; inference prioritized wild cluster bootstrap-t given nine clusters. Standardized mean differences were positive for prosocial behavior – largest in Spain and among Maltese teachers – and small negative for psychosomatic complaints. Site-level changes were negatively but imprecisely associated. In the absence of person-level linkage and experimental condition indicators, findings are interpreted as directional differences rather than causal effects. Overall, implementation coincided with favorable shifts in adult-perceived prosocial behavior without systematic change in psychosomatic complaints.
