A sample of 5053 school children (51% girls and 49% boys)
with the age range of 13-17 (M = 14.40, SD = 1.25) from 43
government schools in the city of Lahore were selected through
multistage sampling method. An indigenously developed
School Children Problems Scale (SCPS; Saleem & Mahmood,
2011) was used as a self report measure to determine the
prevalence of emotional and behavioral problems of children.
Going by the intensity measure on the total of SCPS 31%
participants fell in the severe category (one standard deviation
above the mean) of these 16% fell in the very severe category
(two standard deviations above the mean). By the frequency
count, 21% of the sample scored above the 90th percentile. The
most frequently reported problem was Anxiousness (16%)
followed by Feelings of Rejection (15%) and Academic
Problems (15%). Results are discussed in terms of the
manifestation of emotional and behavioral problems in school
children in traditional and collectivistic cultures, and their
relationship with social demographic factors was also explored.
