Abstract:This research aims to investigate to what extent primary school children show uncertainty management and to what extent it affects their socially shared regulation behaviour during a collaborative task. During collaborative processes, uncertainties might arise. When these uncertainties are expressed more by the students this will result in higher-quality solutions, making it of essential importance during collaborative tasks. One thing that can be used when uncertainty arises and takes place during collaborative processes is SSRL. Considering that behaviours shown during uncertainty management also appear to be present in SSRL it would be interesting to investigate whether there appears to be a relationship between these variables. This relationship was tested by coding video recordings of primary school students performing a collaborative task. The outcomes of the coding process showed that primary school students were prone to engage in reduction strategies when faced with uncertainties. In addition, a correlational analysis showed that there appears to be a relationship between uncertainty management strategies and SSRL, as well as there appears to be a relationship between uncertainty management propensities and SSRL.
