Abstract:
The third report of the series of a comprehensive study on behavioralpronblems children,followed the population and clinical studies reproted in the previous twopapers,deepens particularly into physiological and biochemical arears through EEG andurine MHPG assessments.Based on the data of EEG routine and computer analyses andfluorometric estimation of urine MHPG?SO_4 with a modified method,together with theprevious findings of neurophysiological examination,it was found that behavioral problemchildren were with significantly delayed development of central nervious system.Both the ab-normal EEG and urine MHPG associate closely with harmful factors seen in the period ofmother pregnancy and genetic factors too,supporting the hypothesis of biological basis forthe development of child behavioral problem,at least in partial identified children.However,it was also revealed in a multi-step regression analysis that these abnormalities in EEG andurine MHPG assesments showed a close relations with certain psychosocial varibles,such asbad temparament,hyperactivity,unstability of emotion and negative family issues.
