abstract="The relationship between childhood family placement history and maternal/teacher reports of child behaviour at 6 years was studied in a birth cohort of New Zealand children. Children who had experienced a marital breakdown showed a tendency to increased aggressive/antisocial behaviour. Within the group of children experiencing a family breakdown, behavioural outcomes varied with the child's subsequent family history and children whose parents reconciled or whose mother remarried appeared to suffer more behavioural difficulties than children who remained in a single-parent family. Multivariate analysis suggested that these differences arose from social and contextual factors associated with differing family situations.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
