Relationships Between Problem Behaviors and Academic Achievement in Adolescents: The Unique Role of Attention Problems

Abstract

Numerous studies have documented relationships between a variety of problem behaviors and academic achievement measures. However, the results of these studies should be interpreted cautiously, given the considerable comorbidity of problem behaviors that often exists among school-age youth.This study addressed the relationships between 8 teacher-reported problem behavior syndromes (withdrawal, somatic complaints, anxiety/depression, social problems, thought problems, attention problems, delinquent behavior, aggressive behavior) and standardized measures of academic achievement (overall, reading, spelling, arithmetic, performance). The sample comprised 41 boys and 17 girls ages 11 to 19 years ( M = 15.02, SD = 1.90) enrolled in an alternative school. Although withdrawn, somatic complaints, delinquent behavior, and aggressive behavior syndromes exhibited significant zero-order correlations with the academic achievement measures, each of these relationships was mediated by attention problems. A post hoc analysis suggested that the observed association between attention problems and academic achievement was primarily due to the inattention component of the syndrome rather than the hyperactivity—impulsivity component.The findings are discussed with reference to theoretical, research, and treatment implications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
