    Parental attitudes, not just child behavior, are key indicators for identifying children needing treatment for acting-out behaviors. This highlights the need for comprehensive family assessments.

    Area of Science:

    • Child Psychology
    • Family Studies
    • Behavioral Science

    Background:

    • Referred children often exhibit acting-out behaviors, necessitating accurate diagnostic tools.
    • Understanding family dynamics is crucial for effective intervention in child behavioral issues.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate differences in behavior and parent attitudes between referred and non-referred children and their families.
    • To determine the most effective variables for distinguishing between these groups.

    Main Methods:

    • Comparative study involving 28 referred and 28 matched non-referred families.
    • Utilized home and clinic observations and parent questionnaires for data collection.
    • Employed stepwise discriminant analysis to assess classification accuracy.

    Main Results:

    • Referred children displayed more deviant and less prosocial behavior at home.
    • Parents of referred children exhibited more negative and commanding behaviors.
    • Parent attitude measures significantly differentiated between referred and non-referred groups, with high classification accuracy (90%).

    Conclusions:

    • Parental attitudes are strong predictors in differentiating referred from non-referred children.
    • Child behavior alone may not be the sole criterion for referral.
    • Emphasizes the importance of multi-assessment procedures for child-family problems.
