Abstract:
Objective:To explore the socioeconomic status and psychological characteristics of the children with oppositional defiant disorder(ODD), and to provide evidence for revealing the pathogenesis of ODD.
Methods:General Conditions Questionnaire and Achenbach Children′s Behavior Checklist Scale (CBCL) were used to evaluate 44 cases of ODD children aged 8 to 14 years old who were first referred to the Eighth People′s Hospital of Zhengzhou City from August 2016 to January 2017, and 50 healthy children were randomly selected according to their grades from a primary school in Zhengzhou.Chi-square test and independent sample t test were used to analyze data.
Results:The father′s and mother′s education levels and family per capita income in ODD group were lower than those in healthy control group, and their academic achievements in ODD group were worse than those in healthy control group, and the diffe-rences were statistically significant(all P=0.000). The scores of schizoid (2.32±2.73), depression(4.48±6.12), social problems(3.09±3.34), compulsion(4.05±5.60), social withdrawal(2.39±3.20), hyperactivity(4.95±4.37), aggressive behavior(7.59±7.62) and rule-breaking(2.91±3.85) in ODD children were higher than those of the healthy control group(1.04±1.37, 1.48±2.06, 0.68±1.13, 0.78±1.46, 0.60±1.16, 1.70±1.98, 2.48±3.28, 0.62±1.58), and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). The scores of social problems(2.85±3.33), compulsion(3.96±5.11), social withdrawal(2.63±3.16), hyperactivity(5.44±4.50) in male ODD children were higher than those in the male healthy children(0.80±1.05, 1.30±1.92, 0.95±1.50, 2.15±1.56), and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Compared with the female children(0.83±1.22, 1.10±1.84, 0.60±1.18, 0.43±0.92, 0.53±1.09, 0.37±0.80, 1.40±2.17, 1.87±2.14, 0.30±0.78), the scores of schizoid(2.24±2.64), depression(4.65±4.93), social problems(3.47±3.37), compulsion(4.18±6.38), somatic complaints(2.12±3.65), social withdrawal (2.00±3.26), hyperactivity(4.18±4.12), aggressive behavior (8.24±7.26) and rule-breaking(3.76±4.85) in female ODD children were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). There was no significant gender difference in the score of CBCL scale in ODD group(all P>0.05).
Conclusions:There are significant emotional and behavioral problems in ODD children whose family socioeconomic status is lower, and their psychological characteristics vary with gender differences.
