Objective To explore the relationship between the psychological behavior problems of preschool children and the health literacy of their parents, in order to provide reference for early intervention of children's psychological behavior problems. Methods Totally 4 120 preschool children and their parents were selected from 13 kindergartens in Guangming district of Shenzhen by stratified cluster random sampling method from May to July 2018. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) and Shenzhen citizens' health literacy questionnaire were used for data collection. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between the psychological behavior problems of preschool children and their parental health literacy. Results The detection rate of psychological behavior problems among preschool children was 34. 9% (1 436/4 120), including 6. 5% reported total difficulties, 5. 6% experienced emotional problems, 8. 9% having conduct problems, 13. 4% exhibited hyperactivity/ inattention, 14. 4% experienced peer problems and 9. 2% having prosocial behaviors. The detection rate of total difficulties, emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, peer problems and prosocial behaviors among boys and girls were 7. 3% vs. 5. 5%, 4. 8% vs. 6. 5%, 9. 7% vs. 7. 8%, 15. 5% vs. 10. 7%, 15. 8% vs. 12. 7%, 11. 1% vs. 6. 7%, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (χ2=5. 626, 5. 506, 4. 212, 19. 846, 7. 650, 23. 863, P<0. 05) . Multiple regression indicated that the risk factors for psychological problems included the low parental health literacy(OR=1. 294), low basic concept of knowledge(OR=1. 293), low healthy behavior(OR=1. 412), and low basic health skills(OR=1. 193)(P<0. 05).
