The conduct disorder in children of unknown parentage - A descriptive comparative study in the orphanage of Sétif

Abstract

This study aimed to highlight the most significant conduct disorders among children of unknown parentage, through a comparative descriptive study of a sample from the Child Protection Center in the Province of Setif. The Conduct Disorder Scale for Late Childhood by Bou Al-Ainine was applied to a sample of (08) cases of both sexes. The study found a difference in the type of conduct disorders in children of unknown parentage compared to their peers, as well as a statistically significant variation in the severity of conduct disorders within the same sample based on gender.
