The prevalence of mental behavior problem showed significant difference in gender, age and region .2 Analysis on the influence factors of mental behavior problems in children①A nalysis on the general stateThe incidences of children's behavior problems differed significantly in parents' culture level, occupation, parents'education attitude and expectation to children,family economy, interpersonal relationship, residence area atmosphere and school atmosphere (P<0.05).②Analysis on the family enviroment qualityThe correlation analysis indicates that children's behavior problem negative relative obviously with cohesion, intellectual-cultural, entertainment and positive relative obviously with conflict③Analysis on the personalityThe results showed that male students in P scores of EPQ were higher than female students, but lower in E and L scores significantly.The students who have behavior problems had higher scores of psychoticism(P), neuroticism(N) and extraversion(E) ,and lower scores of lie(L) than that of normal students , and there were siginifcant differences in scores of psychoticism and neuroticism (P<0.001).④Conditional Logistic stepwise regression analysisConditional Logistic stepwise regression analysis indicated that the major protective factors for behavior problems in children were the parents'culture,higher cohesion of FES-CV,but poor classmate relationship, psychoticism,neuroticism were risk factors.ConclusionParents'culture level, occupation parents'expectation to children,rearing mode of children,interpersonal relationship, quality of family environment (such as cohesion,conflict, intellectual-cultural, entertainment)and psychoticism,neuroticism are social psychological factors which influence behavior problems in children. To reduce the prevalence of behavioral problems of children and promote students'psychological development healthily, the above should be considered in education.
