Using the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL), the rate and type ot behavior problems associated with being reared in an institution prior to adoption were examined in 1,948, 4 through I 8 year old internationally adopted children, 899 of whom had experienced prolonged institutional care prior to adoption. The children’s adoptions were decreased between 1990 and 1998 in Minnesota. Binomial logistic regression analyses revealed that early institutional rearing was associated with increased rates of attention and social problems. but not problems in either the internalizing or externalizing domains. Independent of institutional history, children who were adopted - 24 months had higher rates of behaviour problems across many CBCL scales. including internalizing and externalizing problems. In general, time in the adaptive home, which also reflected age at testing, was positively associated with rates of problem behaviour. Thus, there was little evidence that the likelihood of behaviour problems wane with time post adoption. Finally, children adopted from Russia / Eastern Europe appeared at greater risk of developing behaviour problems in several domains compared to children adopted from other areas of the world.
