Abstract

Objective To explore the effectiveness and feasibility of family intervention to the preschool children with aggressive behavior. Method sThe preschool children with aggressive behavior were identified using Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) in 2 kindergartens of Yangpu district,Shanghai.17 children with aggressive behavior and their family in 1 kindergarten were given 5 month family intervention,while 18 children with aggressive behavior in another kindergarten were followed up as control group.The scores of CBCL and Aggressive Behavior-Teacher's Checklist (TCL) were evaluated and compared before and after intervention. Results After family intervention,the scores of CBCL (18.06±5.54),reactive aggression (2.00±0.60) and proactive aggression (1.61±0.82) of intervention group reduced significantly compared with those of baseline (22.47±4.42;2.86±0.73;1.82±1.15,P<0.05).The scores of CBCL (21.17±4.12),reactive aggression (3.04±0.69) and proactive aggression (1.78±0.65) of control group at 5-month didn't change obviously compared with those of baseline (21.72±4.34;3.13±0.74;1.85±0.87,P>0.05).At baseline,there was no difference in the aggressive behavior between two groups.After family intervention,the scores of CBCL and reactive aggression of intervention group were lower than those of control group. Conclusions Family intervention is effective and feasible to intervene children's aggressive behavior.Further researches may revise family intervention strategies for the aggressive children and explore its long-term effectiveness on the aggressive behavior of children.
