This study set out to investigate some psychometric properties of the Lithuanian version of CBCL for providing the preliminary data on the emotional and behavioural problems in Lithuanian children taking factors such as gender, age, SES and family composition into account. The CBCL was completed by parents of 7- to 11- and 12- to 14-year-old school children (N = 1296) drawn from the urban and suburban population. Younger boys scored higher than girls on externalizing problems and total problems scores, and older girls scored higher on internalizing problems. Younger children scored higher than the older children on total problems and externalizing problems scores. The comparisons with the US sample indicated that the levels of problem behaviour in 7- to 14-year-old children are similar to those found in the US. Lithuanian children had higher total problem scores; however, the effect sizes for other scales, except the attention problems scale and the somatic complaints scale, were very small. Similar to other studies, we found significant SES effects on total problem scores. Problem scores were highest for the lowest SES children. In general, this study supports previous findings concerning CBCL: similarities in emotional and behavioural problems outweigh differences in cross-cultural studies based on CBCL.
本研究旨在调查立陶宛语版儿童行为检查表（CBCL）的一些心理测量特性，以便在考虑性别、年龄、社会经济地位（SES）和家庭构成等因素的情况下，提供有关立陶宛儿童情绪和行为问题的初步数据。CBCL由来自城市和郊区的7至11岁以及12至14岁学童的父母填写（N = 1296）。年龄较小的男孩在外化问题和总问题得分上高于女孩，年龄较大的女孩在内化问题上得分更高。年龄较小的儿童在总问题和外化问题得分上高于年龄较大的儿童。与美国样本的比较表明，7至14岁儿童的问题行为水平与美国儿童相似。立陶宛儿童的总问题得分较高；然而，除注意力问题量表和躯体主诉量表外，其他量表的效应量非常小。与其他研究相似，我们发现社会经济地位对总问题得分有显著影响。社会经济地位最低的儿童问题得分最高。总体而言，本研究支持先前关于儿童行为检查表的研究结果：基于儿童行为检查表的跨文化研究中，情绪和行为问题的相似性超过差异性。
