这项研究确定了残疾儿童问题行为的发生和发展（即，行为，同伴，多动和情绪问题）在早年。使用千禧年队列研究，一个全国性的代表性的英国研究，并在英国法律的定义锚定的残疾措施，我们估计跟踪从3岁到7岁的行为问题的增长曲线模型。我们研究残疾女孩和男孩的行为是否与非残疾同龄人不同，以及随着时间的推移，它们是否与他们趋同或偏离。我们调查父母教养和家庭环境是否会调节残疾和行为之间的关联。我们发现，残疾儿童表现出更多的行为问题比非残疾儿童在3岁，他们的轨迹从3岁到7岁不收敛。相反，残疾儿童，特别是男孩，随着时间的推移，在同伴问题，多动症和情绪问题方面表现出越来越大的差距。我们发现很少有证据表明父母的养育会调节这些联系。
This study identifies the incidence and development of disabled children's problem behaviors (i.e., conduct, peer, hyperactivity, and emotional problems) during the early years. Using the Millennium Cohort Study, a nationally representative UK study, and a measure of disability anchored in the UK legal definition, we estimate growth curve models tracking behavior problems from ages 3 to 7. We examine whether disabled girls' and boys' behavior differs from their non-disabled peers, and whether it converges with or diverges from them over time. We investigate whether parenting and the home environment moderate associations between disability and behavior. We show that disabled children exhibit more behavior problems than non-disabled children at age 3, and their trajectories from ages 3 to 7 do not converge. Rather, disabled children, particularly boys, show increasing gaps in peer problems, hyperactivity, and emotional problems over time. We find little evidence that parenting moderates these associations.
