Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between behavior problem reported by parents, the level of depression and anxiety in 1,518 Korean children aged 9-12 years. The K-CBCL(Child Behavior Checklist) was requested from the parents in order to investigate reported behavioral problems of a community sample of children. To assess the level of depression and anxiety the Korean version of the Children's Depression Inventory(CDI) and Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS) was used. The depression and anxiety score measured by the self-report was analyzed and children scored higher than 10%ile based on early investigators data was identified as high risk group. As a result of F-test, internalizing problems, externalizing problems, total behavior problems, and all subscales in K-CBCL revealed significant mean difference between high risk and normal group. And the results of logistic regression analysis shows that the level of depression was predicted by age, family structure and total behavior problems score whereas the level of anxiety was predicted by anxious/depressed, thought problems, and emotional lability scale. In conclusion, it is inferred that childhood depression is different from children's anxiety in many aspects, and clinicians have to consider a child's self report regarding depression or anxiety disorder in addition to multiple psychosocial factors as important information for diagnosis and intervention.
