ABSTRACT
Objective:
To identify possible differences in the level of externalizing behavior problems among children with and without hearing impairment and determine whether any relationship exists between this type of problem and parenting practices.Methods:
The Behavior Assessment System for Children was used to evaluate externalizing variables in a sample of 118 boys and girls divided into two matched groups 59 with hearing disorders and 59 normal-hearing controls.Results:
Significant between-group differences were found in hyperactivity, behavioral problems, and externalizing problems, but not in aggression. Significant differences were also found in various aspects of parenting styles. A model for predicting externalizing behavior problems was constructed, achieving a predicted explained variance of 50%.Conclusion:
Significant differences do exist between adaptation levels in children with and without hearing impairment. Parenting style also plays an important role.
