The purpose of the study was to examine the relations between mothers' and teachers' perceptions of temperament and children's adjustment to preschool. The subjects were 115 4~5 years old children. The instruments were the Parent Temperament Questionnaire and the Preschool Adjustment Questionnaire. The data were analyzed with t-test, Pearson's r and multiple regression. It was found that there were differences between mothers and teachers in perception of child's temperament. Children who were well adjusted in the preschool classroom were perceived by their teachers as being high in adaptability, activity and responsivity and by mothers as being high in adaptability.
