K-CBCL Profile Patterns of Children with Attention Difficulties

Abstract

This study aimed at classifying 6 to 12-year old children who are treated for attention difficulties using K-CBCL scores. Eight K-CBCL sub-scale scores of 97 elementary school boys having attention difficulties were statistically analyzed with cluster analysis method. Four groups with different profiles of K-CBCL scores emerged from the analysis. Group 1 with Internalizing Problems, Externalizing Problems and Attention Problems scores over 65 T-score was defined as Mixed Problems Group and group 2 with T-score over 65 on both Externalizing Problems and Attention Problems scale, Externalizing Problems Group. Group 3 with T-score over 65 in Attention Problems scale only was named Attention Problems Group. Group D consisted of boys with T-score under 60 in all subscale scores including Attention Problems score, and thus named Normal Profile Group. The two Groups with comorbidity(group 1 & group 2) appeared to have poorer relationship with parents, peers, and siblings than the Group without comorbidity(group 3). Clinical implications and limitations of the present study were discussed.
