Abstract :

Background: Conduct disorder (CD) among adolescents is increasing and becomes a particular concern. The occurrence of CD often results from misunderstandings between children and their parents, indicating a functional disturbance in the family. Objective: this study investigated family function from the viewpoints of children with CD. Method: Children with CD who met the inclusion criteria were asked to fill questionnaires of Family Assessment Device (FAD) on family function. As control, their adolescent biological siblings, who had no CD, as well as their parents, were also asked to fill the questionnaires. Results: children with CD showed significant different assessment in several aspects of family function from that of their siblings or parents. However, regarding with family function, children with CD showed significant difference (p < 0.05) from others (father, mother, and siblings). Conclusion: Although in several aspects of family function, CD children had no significant difference from their parents and non-CD siblings, the assessment of CD children to family function is generally different from that of their parents and non-CD siblings. Suggestion: Treatment for children with CD should be undergone using family approach
