The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of gender on behavioral and emotional problems. Ratings of Korean, Korean American, and Caucasian American children were measured by the Behavior Assessment System for Children (BASC). Parent Rating Scale (PRS) and Self Report of Personality (SRP) were examined to study the effects of gender on judgments of behavioral and emotional adjustment. One hundred twenty Korean, Korean American, and Caucasian American children, ages 8 to 11 and their parents participated. Parents completed the Parent Rating Scale (PRS),and children completed the Self-Report of Personality (SRP) of BASC. There were significant gender effects on both scales that generally indicated girls tend to be perceived as behaving in a more controlled and internalizing manner than boys were. Boys displayed higher levels of externalizing problems than girls. There was no significant main effect for gender and group on BASC PRS and SRP scales.
