Abstract:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between problem behavior, school stressor and family strength in high-school girls. METHODS: Data were collected from 200 high school girls in 2008. Data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 18.0. RESULTS: There was a positive correlation between problem behavior and school stressor. There was a negative correlation between problem behavior and family strength. The predictors of problem behavior were school stressor, family strength, and monthly family income and these factors explained 43.0% of problem behavior. CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest the necessity of developing nursing intervention programs for enhancing high-school girls' skills in interpersonal relationship and communication to decrease school stressor and increase family strength.
