This is less than that described for inner London children (19.1%) (Rutter, 1973), in Uganda (18%) (Minde, 1976) and in Lusaka (14.8%) (Lin & Ebrahim, 1991), but higher than the frequency observed in Finland (13.9%) (Almqvist et al., 1999), in Bangladesh (13.4%) (Rabbani & Hossain, 1999), in Saudi Arabia (13.4%) (Abolfotouh, 1997) and in Beijing (8.3%) (Wang, Shen, Gu, Jia & Zhang, 1989). Real-time monitoring of the associations between self-critical and self-punishment cognitions and nonsuicidal self-injury. Evidence based on response processes This is one point higher than tbe score of ≥ 9 recommended for British children.

Furthermore, they will be able to develop a setting, in which children can reach high achievements, experiences, emotional and social well-being. New York: McGraw-Hill. With the increase of evaluation several aspects can be drawn out and integrated into training of educational agents, in which they will be able to cope and respond with increased efficacy to behavioural problems in the classroom context. Teachers' beliefs and educational research: cleaning up a messy construct. Thus, Behar and Stringfield (1974) obtained a three factor solution composed of a "hostile-aggressive", an "anxious-fearful" and a "hyperactive distractible" dimension. (1999). (1993). The Rutter Children's Behaviour Questionnaire (Rutter, 1967) for completion by teachers is a 26- item survey designed to evaluate children's behaviour at school. The questionnaire to assess the behaviour of the children in this age group contains about 100 questions on behavioural problems that need to be answered by parents and caregivers including daycare providers. (1992a). Teacher efficacy: a model for teacher development and inclusion. (1983) found also two factors, namely "aggressiveness-hyperactivity" and "anxious-fearful". Thus, the results will be described for caseness regarding the results of the first evaluation period. [ Links ], Rutter, M. (1973). The Rutter scales are two short screening instruments used to col-lect information from parents and teachers about the behaviour of children in their care. Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, Vol. & Cohen, P. (1990). The aim of the present study was: a) to determine the psychometric properties of the RCBQ for completion by teachers and, (b) to determine behavioural and emotional problems in young children, as they occur in the classroom, based on teachers report. International Journal of Early Years Education, 1(3), 35-47. & van der Ende, J. Psico-USF, 12(2), 257-268. Therefore, these categories covary with the pure internalising and externalising syndromes. In the present study, some gender differences were found regarding to abnormal behaviour, although these differences should not be overemphasized before performing a larger study which takes differences in the social and demographic background of the family in terms of social class, family size, crowding index, parents' education, birth order and parental death into account. The children's Behaviour Questionnaire for completion by teachers in an Italian sample: preliminary results. This version of CBCL is meant for children between the ages of 18 months and 5 years. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Applied Disciplines, 30, 907-912. Further, this study found also no gender differences and stability for different ethnic groups. Considering a cut off score higher than the 80th percentile, a value of nine points at the RCBQ global score, such as considered in previous studies (Azevedo et al., 1986; Rutter, 1967), we noticed that 16.1% of our sample exhibited some behavioural problems. School, however, has an independent impact on children's development (Kasen, Johnson & Cohen, 1990; Ouston, Mauhgan & Mortimore, 1980; Rutter, Mauhgan & Mortimore, 1979). New York: Harper and Row. The teachers then completed the Rutter Child Behaviour Questionnaire (Teachers' Scale) for the same children. (1991). [ Links ], Harvey, D. (1992). To establish the psychometric properties of the RCBQ for completion by teachers and to determine behavioural and emotional problems in young children, as they occur in the classroom, we asked 45 elementary school teachers of the north of Portugal to rate classroom behaviour of their pupils based on Rutter Children's Behaviour Questionnaire for teachers.

Com o objetivo de estabelecer as propriedades psicométricas do Inventário do Comportamento de Rutter na sua forma completa para professores e, determinar os problemas comportamentais e emocionais em crianças, tal como eles ocorrem na sala de aula, foi pedido a 45 professores do 1º CEB do Norte de Portugal para classificarem os comportamentos de 970 alunos (530 meninas e 440 meninos), com idades compreendidas entre os 8 e os 11 anos (M =8,47; DP=0,771). Furthermore, we did not use structured psychiatric interviews with the children: their general mental health problems were rated by adult informants (teachers). Further, no significant differences were found for the global scores, subscales scores or items per se between the first evaluation, the 30-day retest and the 3-month retest.

A linear regression analysis, using the total score of the Rutter scale as an independent variable, predicts a value of 41 as the optimal cut-off to be used for the Child Behaviour Checklist. A two factor structure was found to be suitable, exhibiting an acceptable reliability and test-retest values along a 3-month period. The children's scores on the Rutter Scale were matched against the teacher's grouping, the aim being to identify the Rutter Score that separates the children into two 'behaviour' groups that agree most closely with the teachers' own grouping. In this study, the rate of behaviour disorders in urban Portuguese schoolchildren was 16.1%. Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ) Reference: Rutter M, Bailey A & Lord C (2003). Teachers are active agents in the educational process and therefore, they influence and are influenced by it. Abolfotouh, M A. Indeed the obtained structure is similar to those found by Berklund (1999), and therefore supports the assumption of a two factor solution in non clinical samples as the best descriptive structure of the scale (e.g. Validity of the teachers' grouping was confirmed, using as reference measure the findings from traditional psychological assessment of the children. The findings suggest that the translated scale could serve as a rapid and useful screening instrument in clinical and in research settings. [ Links ], Papatheodorou, T. & Ramasut, A. Foi encontrada uma estrutura fatorial de dois fatores, que exibiu uma fidelidade e valores de teste-reteste aceitáveis ao longo de um período de 3 meses. Self-report measures and multi-informants should be taken into account, as well as the need to evaluate the teachers self-efficacy to diagnose and cope with such problems. However, the first factor accounted for 26% of the variance and the second factor for 25%, whereas factors 3 through 7 accounted for additional 28% (9%, 5%, 5%, 5% and 4% respectively). Monitor on Psychology, 32, 64. TY - JOUR. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 26, 727-739. The epidemiology of child and adolescent psychopathology (pp. Berklund (1999) used latent variable analysis to explore the factor structure of the RCBQ, obtaining a two factor structure labelled as introversive and extroversive. [ Links ], Ekblad, S. (1990). The division into extrovert and introvert behavioural problems seems to be a suitable and comprehensible matrix for analysing the information covered by this scale.

The Rutter scale, which was used for screening, describes general mental health problems and does not focus on specific stress-related problems. Rutter , M. ( 1970 ). Those errors in judging and evaluating behaviours are committed by parents and teachers because the used inventories may be based on non-specific diagnostic criteria, which leads toward a generalization of the behaviours in some diagnostic syndromes, that may not be the most adequate to the needs of the child and leads to a wide variety of interventions (Daw, 2001).
