Preschool-age children having fears is a common problem faced by any practicing psychologist. In the present study, we attempted to determine whether the emotional ill-being of a preschooler are reflected in the success of his or her cognitive activity through development of social competence.The study involved 81 student of senior groups of Moscow kindergartens. The average age of the girls was 69.2 months, 70.7 months for the boys. In the analysis of the data no connection was found between the fear amount and the success of the cognitive and social development. Based on our data, we can conclude that the amount of fear as such does not affect the success of cognitive and social development. Meanwhile the increased level of anxiety interferes with successful cognitive activity of the child.
