The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships of family life events and maternal mental health status to mothers' reports of the problems of their preschool children's behavior. Ninety children aged between 2.5 and 4 years old were sampled from 4 private kindergartens in Taipei. There was a positive correlation between family life events and the problems of preschool children's behavior, but ”maternal mental health status” was the best predictor for the problems of preschool children's behavior by multiple regression analysis.
