The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of creative drama activity on the self-confidence levels of preschool students. The research was conducted in a pre-test/post-test and experimental control group design. The design of the research was based on quasi-experimental design, one of the experimental designs. The study group of the research consisted of a total of 16 students, 8 in the experimental group and 8 in the control group, aged 4 and 5 years old, who were studied in a private preschool education institution in Bishkek-Kyrgyzstan. The data were obtained from the families of 16 children and 4 teachers who teach and know the children. While the independent variable of the study is 8 sessions (8 weeks) of child-centered creative drama, the dependent variable is the scores obtained from the Self-Confidence Observation Check List of the preschool students included in the experimental and control groups. In order to compare the self-confidence levels of the students in the experimental and control groups before the drama activities, the Self-Confidence Observation Check List and the dependent variable were measured in the pre-test. While the students in the experimental group were given 8 sessions (8 weeks) of creative drama activities in addition to the ordinary school program, the ordinary school programs of the students in the control group continued. In addition, after the creative drama activity, the dependent variable was re-measured with the post-test (family-teacher). In the research, the Self-Confidence Observation Check List, which has been used in many studies in the literature, whose validity and reliability has been ensured, was used as a data collection tool.
