The purpose of this study is to investigate what causes the problems of a child who has difficulties in the peer relation. The subjects were 183 children who referred to the Diagnosis and Evaluation Center of Daegu University from January 2002 through 2003. As a result, first, 35% of their parents are company workers, and 47% of them are atheistic. 94 % of the children have both parents, 76 % of them are raised by their natural mother. Second, according to their age brackets, there are some different aspects of their problematic behaviors. The two through six year old children suffer from language and communication problems, and the seven through eight year old children show the lack of concentration and the poor performance in schooling. Nine through twelve year old children show schooling-related problems. Third, in terms of intelligence, their total IQ, verbal IQ, and performance IQ are statistically low, especially low in the language comprehension and mathematics. However, in the social maturation, they show the normal distribution, meaning their parents don’t recognize that the children’s social ability are under average. Fourth, in terms of emotional behaviors, the T scores of the depression, hyperactivity, and autism are high, but their self-flexibility is low. In conclusion, the subject children are seen to suffer from the difficulties in peer relation, caused by their low ability to cope with the environmental changes, which are in turn caused by their inappropriate behaviors and poor language comprehension.
