ABSTRACT

In this study, the relationship between fathers' different occupations and their children's behavioural problems was investigated using a questionnaire. The study found that there was a correlation between fathers' occupation and their children's behavioural problems on all factors except the attention factor, such as withdrawal, anxiety/depression, socialization, discipline, and aggression, and on the total score. Research on the relationship between fathers' occupations and young children's behavioural problems has long been underappreciated, and the studies that do exist are extremely scarce. Some studies have shown a direct link between fathers' occupations and children's academic performance. In order to better understand the causes of behavioural problems in young children, to prevent and intervene in the development of behavioural problems in children aged 3-7, and to promote physical and psychological development, researchers need to explore the relationship between fathers' occupations and behavioural problems in young children.
