In this research, the concept of social representation was applied to explore the differential frame which was used to understand and assess the adolescents daily problematic behaviors by adolescents themselves and their parents. If there is a difference in their perception on the adolescents' problematic daily behavior, the cause will be identified in the communication characteristics and patterns. The social representation on problematic behavior which the adolescents themselves and their parents hold was expressed in the pattern of frequency perception and evaluation of their significances 251 adolescents, 164 of their father, and 176 of their mother have identified the daily problematic behaviors and assessed the frequencies d behaviors and their significance. The perception of behavior was expressed differently by the group; adolescents, mother, father group and the difference was varied by the types of problematic behavior. The perceived frequency and importance are expressed differently by the groups according to the meanings of behavior. The perception on the importance of problematic behavior was related to an avoiding communication pattern. The perception on frequency of problematic behavior was related to an aversive communication pattern which was characterized by an authoritative dimension. However, the perception on the importance of problematic behavior was characterized by the avoidance communication pattern at both parent groups.
