Standardized assessment of IQ was conducted, externalizing behavior was rated by parents and teachers, and survey data of SES and academic achievement were collected. Results of LISREL analyses from the samples indicated that the model doesn’t fit with empirical data well, and then researcher proposed a modified model. Based on the findings, discussion and implications were proposed.
