Abstract

Abstract

Objective To investigate the prevalence of behavior problems and associated risk factors among children aged 3-6 years old, and to provide support for the early intervention of child behavior problems. Methods A total of 9 541 children aged 3-6 years were selected from the kindergartens by multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling in Anhui Province, and their parents were surveyed by Conners Parent Rating Scales and general information questionnaire. The χ² test was used to analyze the detection rate of behavioral problems in children aged 3-6 years by univariate analysis, and the multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the influencing factors of behavioral problems in children. Results The prevalence of behavior problems was 14.3% among children aged 3-6 years old. Learning problems and psychosomatic disorder were the two prominent behavior problems. The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that boys, aged 3- < 6 years, only child, living with one of their parents in the past six months, sleep deprivation were the risk factors associated with behavior problems. However, the primary caregivers were their parents was the protective factor. Conclusions The behavioral problems were common among children aged 3-6 years in Anhui Province. The intervention strategies should focus on boys, only child, the children raised by their grandparents/material grandparents and left-behind children. Behavior problem intervention should be carried out at the early stage.
