Objective:To carry out the investigation for the Current Situation and related factors of behavior problems among left-behind children in rural areas,so as to provide a scientific basis for psychological health education.for them in the future.Methods:1 394 children,between 6 and 15 years old,of which 622 were left-behind children and 772 were non-left-behind children,were selected from six primary schools and two junior middle schools in Ningxia using cluster random sampling method.All of them were assessed by self-designed General Information Questionnaire and the Parent Symptom Questionnaire(PSQ).Logistic regression method was used to analyze the correlative factors of behavior problems.Results:The detectable rate of behavior problems among left-behind children between 6 and 15 years old in Ningxia rural district was 17.8%.Left-behind children's PSQ factor scores were all higher than non-left-behind children's(P<0.05).Hui left-behind children's PSQ factor scores were significantly higher than Han Chinese left-behind children's and Hui non-left-behind children's(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that female left-behind children(OR=2.001) and Hui ethnic(OR=2.945) and Boarding left-behind children(OR=2.572) were more likely to have behavior problems,whereas who were studying at the rural primary school far from the county town(OR=0.487) had a little rate to attach behavior problems.Conclusion:Behavior problems of left-behind children in Ningxia is serious.Its correlative factors are complex.The concerted efforts were needed to reduce left-behind children's behavior problems.
Objective To investigate the relationships between depression and life events and coping style of left-behind children in Ningxia rural district.Methods 1455 children,between 7 and 15 years old,of which 643 were left-behind children and 812 were non-left-behind children,were selected from six primary schools and two junior middle schools in Ningxia using cluster-random-sampling.All of them were assessed by the Depression Self-rating Scale for Children (DSRSC),Adolescent Self-rating Life Event Checklist (ASLEC) and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ).Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between leftbehind children' s depression phenomenon and all items in the questionnaires above,and Hierarchical multiple linear regression were used to analyze the correlative factors associated with depression among left-behind children.Results The detectable rate of left-behind children and non-left-behind children' s depression were respectively 30.30% and 21.20%,and the former was higher than the later (x2 =15.909,P<0.01).In the left-behind children group,the depression relevance ratio were significant difference (35.23% vs.26.52%) between the 7-11 years old group and the 12 to 15 one(P<0.05).The detectable rate of Han and Hui ethnic children(29.00% vs.37.14%)had no statistically significance.Except positive replying,left-behind children had got higher scores in all factors of DSRSC,ASLEC and negative replying compared with non-left-behind children.According to the Pearson correlation analysis,the scores of DSRSC had positive correlation with all factors in ASLEC,while had negative correlation with active coping style in SCSQ (P < 0.05).According to hierarchical multiple linear regression,positive replying,passive coping style,health and adaptation and human relationship went into the equation,which were important predictive variables for depression.Conclusion The left-behind children in Ningxia have high detectable rate of depression,and active coping styles are useful buffer for the life events' harmful effects.
Objective: To investigate the current situation and influencing factors of anxiety among the left-behind children in rural areas, so as to provide a scientific basis for psychological health education. Method: To select 1455 children by cluster random sampling method, who were between 6 and 15 years old from six primary schools and two junior middle schools in a county of Ningxia. There were 643 left-behind children and 812 non-left-behind children. All of them were assessed by self-designed General Information Questionnaire and the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders(SCARED). Result: The detectable rate of anxiety among the left-behind children was 29.1%, which was higher than that among the non-left-behind children which was 16.7%(字2=31.606,P<0.001). Among the left-behind children, the detectable rate of boys and girls was 31.7% and 25.8%. There was no significant difference(字2=2.735,P=0.098). The detectable rate of the Han nationality left-behind children and the Hui nationality left-behind children was 26.2% and 43.8%. There was a significant difference(字2=13.197,P<0.001). The detectable rate of anxiety among the school-age children was 24.9%, which was lower than that among the adolescent which was 32.3%(字2=4.211,P=0.040). Both of the left-behind children’s total scores and all factor scores in anxiety were higher than those of the non-left-behind children. There were significant differences(P<0.05). Among the left-behind children, girls’ scores were higher than boys’ in scial phobia. Scores of adolescent were higher than those of school-age children in anxiety, scial phobia and generalized anxiety(P<0.05). There were significantly differences in anxiety, somatoform disorder/panic disorder, school phobia and generalized anxiety between the Hui nationality left-behind children and the Han nationality left-behind children(P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the Hui nationality left-behind children were more likely to have anxiety emotion(OR=2.20). Conclusion: The level of anxiety emotion of the left-behind children is significant higher than that of the non-left-behind children, and there is significant difference in gender, age, and nation.
Objective To investigate the detectable rate and correlative factors of behavior problems among Hui nationality left-behind children in Ningxia rural area.Methods 1394 children,between 6 and 15 years old,of which 282 were Hui nationality children and 112 were Hui left-behind children,were selected from six primary schools and two junior middle schools using cluster random sampling method in Yongning,Ningxia.All of them were assessed by the Achenbach 's Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and self-designed General Information Questionnaire.Logistic regression method was used to analyze the correlative factors of behavior problems.Results The detectable rate of behavior problems among Hui nationality children between 6 and 15 years old was 31.25%,which was higher than the Han nationality left-behind children' s(17.84%) and Hui nationality nonleft-behind children' s (14.12%).Among the Hui left-behind children,those who between 6 and 11 years old,had been left alone between 5 and 7,and whose parents exchanging ideas with teachers less than one time a month had higher detectable rates (x2 =14.904,6.327,7.904,P < 0.05).Among the Hui ethnic children,the detectable rates of those who between 6 and 11 yeas old were higher than that of the non-left-behind children' s(P < 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that Hui ethnic left-behind children between 12 and 15 years old (OR =0.179) and those whose parents contacted with their teachers frequently(OR =0.362) had less possibilities to attach behavior problems.Conclusion The detectable rate of behavior problems among Hui nationality left-behind Children between 6 andl5 years old in Ningxia is higher,and the correlative factors are complex.
