Resum:
PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS, TEMPERAMENT AND COGNITIVE CAPACITY AT 6 YEARS OF AGE: PREDICT FACTORS AND ASSOCIATED FACTORS.In the development of psychopathology it is considered as a continuous procedure. In this procedure, factors inter-react between themselves and they produce the normality and anormality conduct. The study of this procedure is an important objective in this perspective and the longitudinal dimensions allowed us to detect changes, stability in the development and predictor factors. In the first chapter of this thesis we show development psychopathology concepts. Second and thirth chapter are based on epidemiology and risk factors. The primary goals of the study are: a) to investigate psychopathology associated factors and psychopathology predictor factors at the age of six years old, and b) to investigate predictor factors of temperament and intellectual capacity at six years. The sample consist of 130 non-clinical children. 80 of them 130 have been followed from birth until the age of six years, and their mothers have been followed from preconceptional to postpartum period. The rest of children have been followed only at the age of six years old.Mother measures are: socioeconomic status; EPQ-A; STAI; and BDI. Child measures in the first year of life are: NBAS; Bayley test and Fagan test. Child measures at the age of 6 years old are: CBCL; IOWA; DOTS and WPPSI. We found differences between the sexes. In boys there were more links between psychopathology and individual and environmental factors. We found also sex differences in the predictor factors effect on psychopathology, temperament and IQ. In boys there were more predictive capacity. Temperamental neonatal factors are important predictor factor of psychopathology in boys. We found predictive capa
