本研究考察了与显性和隐性反社会儿童行为相关的儿童和家庭特征。儿童精神科住院患者(N=258，年龄6-13岁)根据一项衡量反社会行为的结构化家长访谈被确定为高显性和/或隐蔽反社会行为(例如，分别是攻击性和偷窃)。根据显性(高与低)和隐性(高与低)反社会行为水平的因素组合，将儿童分为四组。分析了儿童对敌对和激怒情况的反应，家庭和学校儿童的越轨和亲社会行为，以及家庭结构和组织。在公开的反社会行为中，越高的孩子对敌对环境的反应越消极、怨恨和易怒，在学校里也更具攻击性。他们来自家庭成员之间的冲突明显更大、独立性更低的家庭。隐蔽性反社会行为越多的儿童参加社会活动的次数越少，焦虑程度越高；他们的家庭凝聚力和组织性显着降低，对道德-宗教价值观的重视程度较低。结果表明，儿童和家庭功能的可靠差异是公开和隐蔽反社会行为模式的函数。
The present study examined child and family characteristics associated with overt and covert antisocial child behaviors. Child psychiatric inpatients (N=258, ages 6–13) were identified as high in overt and/or covert antisocial behaviors (e.g., aggression and stealing, respectively) based on a structured parent interview measuring antisocial behavior. Children were classified into four groups derived from the factorial combination of level of overt (high vs. low) and covert (high vs. low) antisocial behaviors. Analyses were made of the children's reactions to hostile and anger-provoking situations, deviant and prosocial child behaviors at home and at school, and family structure and organization. Children higher in overt antisocial behaviors were more negative, resentful, and irritable in their reactions to hostile situations and more aggressive at school. They came from families with significantly greater conflict and less independence among family members. Children higher in covert antisocial behavior participated in fewer social activities and were higher in anxiety; their families showed significantly lower family cohesion and organization and less of an emphasis on moral-religious values. The results suggest reliable differences in child and family functioning as a function of patterns of overt and covert antisocial behavior.
