The purpose of this thesis was to study children´s problem behaviors and to represent the references and the useful data for successful child rearing, by observing children´s problem behaviors and their emotional inadaptation focused on a number of environmental factors, and by examining many factors which have an effect on children´s problem behaviors.
Data for research were sampled from 264 mothers of fifth and sixth grade children attending two elementary schools on Taejon city
Data were collected by posing a questions method during the period July 2-July 7 in 1990.
The instrument used in the study was the Hong Kyeong Ja´s child behavior profile and, through the SPSS progrom, the collected data were analysed into Frequency, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation coefficient.
The Conclusions were as follows：
1. Factors affecting children´s problem behaviors
1) Father´s occupation：
Physical laborer´s children recorded a high problem behavior index point in psychotic, hyperactivity, paranoid(P<.05), whereas office workers children got a high problem behavior index point in delinquency (P<.015), immature aggression (P<.05)： The result is statistically significant
2) Father´s educational level：
The children whose fathers had a level of education lower than middle school level were marked by high problem behavior index point in psychotic, immature aggression, delinquency, hystery. sexual problem, hyperactivity(P<.001), paranoid(P<.01), superiority(P<.05)
3) Monthly income：
The children whose families earned a lower income than 550,000 won a month recorded a high problem behavior index point in immature aggression (P<.001), psychotic, paranoid(P<.05)： the results are statistically significant.
4) Mother´s occupation：
It turns out that whether the children´s mother had a job or not didn´ t make any meaningful difference to children´ s problem behavior through 14 items.
5) Mother´ s educational level
The children whose mother had a level of education lower than middle school level marked a high problem behavior index point in psychotic, immature aggression, hystery, sexual problems, hyperactivity, paranoid(P<.001), deliquency(P<.01), superiority, obsession(P<.05)：the results is statistically significant
6) Differences between the male children and female children：
Male children had more meaningful differences in hystery. sexual problems(P>.05), whereas female children had more significant differences in social withdrawal(P<.01).
7) Problem behavior on the basis of father´s educational level
The male children, whose father had a level of education lower than primary school level, recorded a high problem behavior index point in psycotic, overanxiety, immature aggression(P<.001), superiority, social withdrawal, delinquency, hyperactivity(P<.01), psychosomatic, obsession, emotional instability, hystery · sexual problem, paranoid(P<.05), whereas the female children whose father had a level of education lower than middle school level marked a high problem behavior index point in hystery · sexual problem(P<.01), hyperactivity(P<.05).
8) Problem behavior on the basis of family monthly income：
The male children, whose family got a lower income than 550,000won a month, recorded a high problem behavior index point in psychotic, overanxiety, immature aggression(P<.05), whereas female children marked a high problem behavior index point in immature aggression, hystery · sexual problem, hyperactivity(P<.05)：the result is statistically
9) Problem behavior on the basis of mother´s educational significamt.
The male children whose mother had a level of education lower than middle school level, marked a high problem behavior index point in psychotic(P<.001), immature aggression, hystery · sexual problem(P<.01), superiority, obsession, overanxiety, delinguency, hyperactivity, paranoid (P<.05), whereas the female children recorded a high problem behavior index point in hystery · sexual problems(P<.001), hyperactivity, paranold(P<.01), delinquency(P<.05)
2. Relationships between mother´ s rearing attitude and children´s problem behavior
1) According to the standard based on the mother´s affection and love for the first 5 years, the child who had had lack of affection and love marked a high problem behavior index point in psychosomatic, social withdrawal, psychotic, paranoid(P<.001), superiority, overanxiety, immature aggression(P<.01), emotional instability, hystery. sexual problem, hyperactivity(P<.05)：the result is statistically significant.
2) According to innate nature, unmeek children recorded a high problem behavior index point in superiority, overanxiety, immature aggression, hyperactivity, paranoid(P<.001), regression(P<.01), Psychosomatic(P<.05).
3) According to the rearing attitude, through interference marked a high problem behavior index point in paranoid(P<.001), psychotic, immature aggression(P<.01), superiority(P<.05),and considerable interference recorded high problem behavior index point in social withdrawal, overanxiety(P<.01).
3. The correlation between problem behavior variables of each item turned out to be a positive correlationship.
