Abstract: | The present investigation compared Anglo (N=1,999) and Mexican-American children (N=192) on the four factors of the Behavior Problem Checklist (BPCL). Teachers provided general information and BPCL ratings. The Anglo children manifested more problems on three of the factors than did the Mexican-American children. Significant interactions of grade, sex, and social class with ethnic group were revealed for two of the factors.The authors wish to thank Dr. John Bowser, superintendent of the Alief Independent School District, for his support, encouragement, and cooperation in this study. In addition, they express appreciation for the assistance rendered by Mrs. Dorothy Schreiner, secretary to the superintendent, and for participation of the principals and teachers. |
