Early Child Risk Factors for Externalizing and Internalizing Behaviors: A 5-Year Follow-Forward AssessmentUniversity of Missouri-Columbia The purpose of this follow-forward study was to determine if behavioral groupings, created when children were preschoolers, were associated with different outcomes 5 years later. Participating in this follow-forward study were parents of three groups of children who participated in a larger study 5 years earlier. Children had been identified as preschoolers with hyperactivity, hyperactivity and aggression, or comparisons. Response rate for the follow-forward study was 66% and attrition rates were similar across the groups. Parents completed the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) at the outcome assessment. Analyses were conducted to determine if the original groups could be differentiated on the CBCL factors 5 years later. Results from this study clearly illuminated the importance of early assessments of hyperactivity and aggression, as they were associated with later behavior problems.
