Institute, Second Hospital, Xi�an Traffic University Xi�an, China Objective: To explore the
temperament characteristics, behavioral problem and relationship between
them in disabled children.� Methods: The test results of 78
disabled children and 78 normal children aged 8～12 on Chinese
School Temperament Scale (CSTS) and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)� were analyzed by making 1:1 comparison;
besides , the scores of� behavioral
factors of CBCL were compared by the type of temperament , and the
influence of CBCL scores by temperament in many� factors was investigated by�
the multiple stepwise regression. Results: The rate of difficult,
intermediate-difficult and slow up to warm temperament in disabled children
was significantly higher than normal children, and the rate of easy and
intermediate-easy temperament was especially lower than normal children.
The rate of behavioral disorder was 91% in disabled children, 14% in normal
children .The Scores of behavioral factors on the introverted dimensions
and the dimension of social flinch were obviously high.� Total score of CBCL was 64.74�12.95 in
disabled children, 51.03�8.50 in normal children. Highly different effects
were obtained (p<0.01). In addition, the scores of many behavioral factors
of CBCL in the difficult, intermediate-difficult and slow up to warm
temperament were much higher than in the easy and intermediate-easy
temperament. In the regressive model, the temperament type was the
independent variable that was introduced first. The rate of contribution
for the total score of CBCL was 48% (R2=0.48).�� Conclusion: There were marked
differences between disabled children and normal children in the type of
temperament. The rate of behavioral disorder was higher for disabled
children. There was a close relationship between the behavioral problem and
the temperament type.
