 Nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama deseninde yürütülen bu çalışmanın amacı, öğretmenlerin çocuk sevme durumları ile motivasyonları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Van ilinde görev yapmakta olan 406 okul öncesi öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama aracı olarak Duyan ve Gelbal 2008 tarafından Türkçeye uyarlaması yapılan Barnett Çocuk Sevme Ölçeği ve Yıldız ve Taşgın 2019 tarafından geliştirilen Öğretmen Motivasyon Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, öğretmenlerin çocuk sevme durumları ile motivasyon düzeyleri arasında pozitif yönlü ve anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Araştırmada yer alan öğretmenlerin yaş, deneyim, aylık gelir, kurum türü, sınıftaki öğrenci sayısı, çalıştıkları yaş grubu, medeni durum, çocuk sahibi olma, eğitim düzeyi ve sınıfta kaynaştırma öğrencisi olup olmaması değişkenlerine göre hem çocuk sevme durumları hem de motivasyon düzeylerinde anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ancak, okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin motivasyon düzeyleri motivasyon ölçeğinin mesleki doyum ve kişisel gelişim alt boyutunda cinsiyetlerine göre anlamlı bir farklılık göstermiş; kadınların mesleki doyum ve kişisel gelişim puanlarının, erkeklerin mesleki doyum ve kişisel gelişim puanlarından yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.
