Abstract:
Objective:To understand the situation of neglect and behavior problems of children aged 3-6 years in rural areas of Urumqi, Xinjiang, and to provide basis and reference for the prevention and treatment of child neglect.
Methods:Stratified random cluster sampling was performed to select 1 326 children aged 3-6 years from 6 kindergartens in rural Urumqi. The “Chinese Rural Child Aged 3-6 Years Neglect Evaluation Norm” and “Conners Parent Symptom Questionnaire” were used.
Results:The total neglect rate of rural children was 51.89%, and the rate of behavioral problems was 23.37%. Each dimensional score of neglect among children with behavioral problems was higher than those without behavior preblems, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.77，4.05，2.95，2.44，3.01，2.71，P<0.05). Emotional neglect was correlated with all factors in behavioral preblems, except phychosomation fact (r=0.18，0.80，0.15，0.14，0.19，P<0.05). Neglect in educational was correlated with all factors in behavioral factors except anxiety and hyperactivity (r=0.06，0.05，0.62，0.08，P<0.05).
Conclusion:Neglect of children aged 3-6 years in rural areas of Urumqi is more prominent and behavioral problems are more common, which should be paid more attention by relevant departments and parents.
