The present study aims to investigate correlation between development of socio-emotional skills and transition from intellectual reality to visual reality. Therefore, it was designed in correlational research. Research sample included 120 primary school children. Data was collected through Facial Emotion Recognition and Empathy Test (FERET), and a rating scale developed by the researchers. Findings of the research indicated that correlation coefficient between the variables is 0.56. Furthermore, linear regression model explains 0.31 of the variance. Findings of the research are going to be discussed through Piaget's moral development theory and Luquet's theory.
