Abstract:
Objective:To explore the latent categories of child security and analyze domain-specific roles of child neglect on security among children aged 10-13 years.Methods:From October to December 2019, the security questionnaire (SQ), child neglect scale (CNS) and Buss-Perry aggression questionnaire (BPAQ) were used to investigate 577 children aged 10-13 years. Mplus 7.0 software was used for latent profile analysis (LPA) to explore the latent categories of child security. SPSS 22.0 software was used for multinomial Logistic regression to examine the effects of different domains of child neglect on the child security categories.Results:(1) Child security was divided into three categories named "medium-slightly low-security subgroup (48.9%)" , "high-security subgroup (31.8%)" , and "inability control subgroup (19.3%)" (entropy = 0.90, Lo-Mendell-Rubin likelihood, and Bootstrapped likelihood ratio test, all P<0.01). (2) Child security(35.06±6.08, 51.49±4.99, 69.67±6.13, F=1 378.09, P<0.01), neglect(71.09±20.58, 59.96±12.90, 50.76±9.27, F=74.50, P<0.01), and aggression(54.31±15.23, 46.44±12.46, 34.19±12.61, F=90.95, P<0.01) were significantly different among the "medium-slightly low-security subgroup" , "high-security subgroup" , and "inability control subgroup" . (3)Compared with "high-security subgroup" , the proportion of children with poor parental relationship and low paternal education level were higher in the other two subgroups(all P<0.05), while the proportion of children in the fifth grade were lower(all P<0.05). (4)In " inability control subgroup" , safe neglect had no impact on security( B=0.01, OR=1.02, 95% CI=0.91-1.13, P>0.05), while physical neglect ( B=0.13, OR=1.14, 95% CI=1.01-1.28), affection neglect( B=0.14, OR=1.15, 95% CI=1.07-1.23), and communication neglect( B=0.15, OR=1.16, 95% CI=1.03-1.30) predicted the "inability control subgroup" (all P<0.05). Only communication neglect predicted the "medium-slightly low-security subgroup" ( B=0.16, OR=1.17, 95% CI=1.07-1.28, P<0.01). Conclusion:Security is heterogenous with three latent categories among Children aged 10-13 years. Child neglect plays domain-specific roles in different child security categories.
