SARMENTO, Andricy Silva Linhares; SCHOEN-FERREIRA, Teresa Helena; MEDEIROS, Élide Helena  y  CINTRA, Isa de Pádua. Emotional and behavioral symptoms evaluation in obese adolescents. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.10, n.3, pp.833-847. ISSN 1808-4281.

The study investigated emotional and behavioral symptoms in 54 obese adolescents of both sex, aged 11 to 18 years old, attending the Centro de Atendimento e Apoio ao Adolescente (CAAA). Other 194 eutrophic teenagers, paired by gender and age, formed the control group. Two instruments were used in the investigation: Young Self Report (YSR) and a file of social demographic data, especially designed for this study. In relation to the study variables, no statistical differences between obese and eutrophic adolescents were observed although 25% of the obese adolescents presented problems of social contact and almost 33% showed aggressive behavior.

Palabras clave : Obesity; Psychological evaluation; Adolescents.
