Abstract:Objective To explore the effect of rural family rearing environment on children’s aggressive behavior, and to provide a basis for intervention of their aggressive behavior. Methods Five junior middle schools and 5 primary schools were selected in Bengbu and Suzhou areas, northern Anhui province from October to November 2014, and a clustered-random sampling method was used to select 2 classes from grades 4-9 in each school. A self-designed questionnaire was used to survey family rearing environment and aggressive behavior in 1,988 students (including 1,009 boys and 979 girls), and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was employed to analyze the correlation between family rearing environment and aggressive behavior of rural children. Results In self-evaluation of family rearing environment, middle-income families (β=-0.222, P<0.01), parents’ satisfaction with children’s performance in life (β=-0.220, P<0.01) and guardians who frequently had a chat with children (β=-0.214, P<0.01) were protective factors for children’s aggressive behavior, while mothers’ criticism, teaching children to fight and scold with each other and not to interact with the other party when children had a conflict with people around them (β=0.302,P<0.01)as well as fathers who took an indifferent, beating and scolding approach when children made mistakes(β=0.202, P<0.01) were risk factors for children’s aggressive behavior. Conclusions Good family rearing environment plays an effective role in the decrease of children’s aggressive behavior, whereas poor family rearing environment can promote the occurrence of aggressive behavior of children.
