Abstract: The purpose of the present study was to explore the association between emotional and physical abuse and migrant children's ODD (oppositional defiant disorder) symptoms. A sample of 369 migrant children with ODD symptoms, 349 migrant children with none ODD symptoms and 94 local children with ODD symptoms was recruited from 10 elementary schools in Beijing. Furthermore, mediating role and moderating role of parent-child relationship in that association were explored. According to the characteristics of ODD symptoms, ODD symptoms were classified into two categories-emotional ODD symptoms (irritable) and behavioral ODD symptoms (headstrong/hurtful). Results revealed that compared to local children with ODD symptoms, migrant children with ODD symptoms suffered more severe physical abuse, poorer parent-child closeness and higher parent-child conflict but had less emotional ODD symptoms; while compared to migrant children with none ODD symptoms, migrant children with ODD symptoms suffered more severe emotional and physical abuse, poorer parent-child closeness and higher parent-child conflict. Higher physical abuse was associated with more behavioral ODD symptoms, whereas emotional abuse was not associated with more behavioral ODD symptoms, and neither of physical abuse or emotional abuse was associated with emotional ODD symptoms. Furthermore, conflict played a significant mediating role between physical abuse and behavioral ODD symptoms, while closeness played a significant moderating role between physical abuse and emotional ODD symptoms, among migrant children with ODD symptoms.

Key words: emotional abuse, physical abuse, ODD symptoms, parent-child relationship
