Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to analyze the role and position of play in kindergartens in Yasuj in order to explain the importance of play in kindergartens. The research method is quantitative. The study population consisted of all kindergarten educators in Yasuj who were selected as the sample of 20 kindergartens through random cluster sampling. The tool used to collect the data was a questionnaire. Questionnaires were collected and entered into SPSS statistical software. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.71). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), and inferential statistics (Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, Cronbach's alpha test, and independent t-test and Friedman test). The findings showed that the questions were above the mean of 3. Therefore, the respondents believed that the evaluation of the role and position of the components was above the average, and also considering the significance level of 0.033. Since this value is less than 0.05, the evaluation of the role and position of play in the kindergartens in the study city is above average. And according to the Friedman test, the chi-square of the Friedman test was 9.8 and the significance level was 0.002, so the evaluation of role and position of play in kindergartens in Yasuj was somewhat different.
