This epidemiological study investigated the frequency of behaviour problems and competence in 483 Thai children and youths, aged 7–18 years. The randomly selected subjects lived in cities and rural areas in northern and north-eastern Thailand. The main questionnaires were the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), the Teacher’s Report Form (TRF), and Harter’s Perceived Competence Scale for Children. Older subjects in urban areas had higher problem scores than other groups according to the reports from the parents. Teachers reported similar frequencies of behaviour problems. Boys showed more ‘externalizing’ and delinquent behaviour on both the CBCL and the TRF. Younger subjects had higher scores on the Perceived Competence Scale.

Key Words: Child Behavior Checklist • epidemiological study • Harter’s Perceived Competence Scale for Children • Teacher’s Report Form • Thailand
