a. All three models are adjusted for the following covariates: (1) children’s race, gender, preterm birth, low birth weight, neonatal intensive care, and physical/mental limitation; (2) mother’s age, education, employment status, parental warmth, emotional support, and cognitive stimulation; and (3) household’s size, number of children, food stamp participation, Aid to Families with Dependent Children or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families participation, homeownership, household income, and state fixed effects. b. The analysis on the PC score has a smaller sample size since only children aged 6 or older can take this test.
3.1. Descriptive analysis
Table 1 reports the distributions for the outcome and independent variables and demographic characteristics of the analytic sample. The mean standardized scores of the AP, LW, and PC tests were 107.3 ( SD = 16.6), 105.5 ( SD = 18.4), and 105.2 ( SD = 17.7), respectively. The PSID-CDS children, on average, were 8.4 years old in 1997. The age range of these children was from 3–12 in 1997, with a sample size from 150 to 200 for each age. While not reported in Table 1 , the age range of these children was about 8–17 in 2002 when the second wave of the PSID-CDS was conducted. The sample size for each age in the second wave was from 130 to 190. Since the PSID-CDS only collected information for children younger than 18, the age range was approximately 13–17 in 2007 (i.e., the third wave), and the sample size for children aged 17 is reduced to about 100 because some children aged out from the PSID-CDS. Half of the children were male, and nearly 80% of subjects were White. Mean summary scores for the externalizing and internalizing subscales were 23.1 ( SD = 5.7) and 16.0 ( SD = 3.6) respectively. The mean age of their mothers was 36.0 ( SD = 7.7) in 1997, and the mean schooling years for mothers was 13.1 ( SD = 2.7). More than 60% of mothers were employed in 1997. On average, children lived in a household with four members (including two children) and reported a mean income of about $57,000.
Fig. 1 presents the average scores of the three tests by children’s age. The range of the y-axis is nearly two standard deviations around the mean test score. For the AP, LW, and PC tests, the mean scores at different ages were connected using the dashed line, the solid line, and the dotted line, respectively. The figure shows that, overall, the mean score was about 5 points above or below 100. There was a slight upward trend in early childhood, and a slight downward trend was noticed in late childhood.

3.2. Bivariate analysis
Reporting average test scores over three waves, Table 2 confirms that children’s academic achievement and behavior problems vary by gender and race. Female children had higher mean scores on the LW and PC tests of about 2.5 points ( p < 0.001). Conversely, male children had greater mean scores on the AP test (108.9 vs. 105.6, p < 0.001) and the externalizing subscale (23.6 vs. 22.5, p < 0.001). Males and females do not differ significantly with respect to the internalizing subscale.

WJ-R LW score | 106.9 | 104.2 | 94.3 | 108.3 |

Externalizing problems | 22.5 | 23.6 | 23.6 | 22.9 |

With respect to race, Black children had test scores nearly 15 points lower than White children on all three tests of academic performance ( p < 0.001 level), and their mean score on the externalizing subscale was 0.7 points higher than that of White children (23.6 vs. 22.9, p < 0.001).
3.3. Associations between behavior problems and academic achievement
Table 3 reports results of an Eq. (1) using the externalizing or internalizing subscale to predict all three test scores while adjusting for previously described control variables. First, except for the PC score, we found statistically significant and positive regression coefficients on the age variable and negative coefficients on the age-squared variable, which suggests that there is a curvilinear relationship between age and children’s achievement test scores. The positive marginal effects of age on test scores decrease when children get older. Second, controlling for behavior problems and all other variables in the model, male children had LW and PC scores about 1.5 points lower than female children and had AP scores three points higher than female children at baseline. The Black-White achievement gap was approximately seven points on two reading tests and nearly 11 points on the AP test at baseline.
Children’s externalizing behavior problems were inversely associated with all three test scores at baseline. Specifically, a one-point increase in the externalizing subscale reduced children’s AP score by 0.35 points at age 3 (95% CI: −0.53, −0.17; p < 0.001), decreased the LW score by 0.22 points at age 3 (95% CI: −0.40, −0.03; p < 0.05), and lowered the PC score by 0.22 points at age 6 (95% CI: −0.39, −0.05; p < 0.05). While the externalizing subscale did not affect the change of the LW and PC scores over time, its interaction with children’s age was significant in the model predicting the AP score ( b = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.00, 0.04; p < 0.05). It indicates the negative associations between externalizing behaviors and the LW and PC scores remain consistent across ages, while the association between externalizing behaviors and the AP score weakens over time. Fig. 2 indicates that a typical child (see the definition of the typical child in Fig. 2 ) with the externalizing subscale at the third quartile point (= 26) has an AP score two points lower than a typical child with the externalizing subscale at the first quartile point (= 19) at baseline, but the score difference reduces over time and disappears at about age 15.
Predicted AP scores by child’s age and externalizing problems. This figure presents the predicted AP scores over children’s age for two typical children in the sample with the externalizing subscale at the third quartile point (= 26) and at the first quartile point (= 19) at baseline. Using the median value of categorical control variables and the mean value of continuous control variables, a typical case is defined as a White male child who had more than 37 weeks of gestational age, had a normal birth weight, did not have neonatal intensive care at birth and did not have physical/mental limitations; whose mother was 36 years old, employed, and had 13 years of schooling; whose mother reported a 4.5 parental warmth score, a 10.6 cognitive simulation score, and a 10.3 emotional support score; whose household had 4.3 members (including 2.4 children) with income equal to $57,000; and whose household did not receive any public assistance.
Children’s internalizing behavior problems were negatively associated with the AP and PC scores but not with the LW score at baseline. A one-point increase in the internalizing subscale reduced children’s AP score by 0.50 points (95% CI: −0.80, −0.20; p < 0.000) and the PC score by 0.35 points (95% CI: −0.64, −0.06; p < 0.01), respectively.
3.4. Associations between behavior problems and academic achievement by gender
Results of the associations between behavior problems and academic achievement by gender are reported in Table 4 . The interaction term between the externalizing subscale and gender is significant in the models using the LW score (b = 0.25, 95% CI: 0.02, 0.48, p < 0.05), suggesting that externalizing behavior programs have greater associations with decreased academic performance for female children at baseline. None of the three-way interaction terms among gender, age, and behavior problems were statistically significant in the models. Based on the results of the second column in Table 4 , Fig. 3 predicts the LW scores over time for four typical cases with different genders and different levels of externalizing. The slopes, indicating the changing rates of reading achievement, are almost the same for the four predicted lines. At baseline, the difference in the LW test score was nearly 3 points for female children on the externalizing subscale at the first quartile point (= 19) and the third quartile point (= 26), but was only 1.2 points for male children.

3.5. Associations between behavior problems and academic achievement by race
Results on the associations between behavior problems and academic achievement by race are presented in Table 5 . The interaction terms between behavior problems and race were not statistically significant in these models; the associations between behavior problems and academic performance do not vary by race at baseline. However, different from the results on gender, the three-way interaction term among behavior problems (either externalizing or internalizing subscale), age, and race were negatively associated with children’s reading test scores (i.e., LW and PC scores). A one-point increase in the externalizing or internalizing subscale at baseline decreases Black children’s reading score about 0.02 points more than White children every year. That is, in addition to their associations with academic performance at baseline, behavior problems are negatively correlated with reading scores over time for Black children. Based on the results shown in the fifth column in Table 5 , Fig. 4 predicts the LW scores over time for two typical cases with the internalizing subscale at the mean level (= 15). The Black-White test gap was 5.1 points at age 3, but reached 11.2 points at age 17.

4. Discussion
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between externalizing and internalizing behaviors and the long-term trajectory of academic achievement in a nationally representative sample of children. The heterogeneity in the relationship between externalizing and internalizing behaviors and academic achievement by gender and race was examined. It was hypothesized that behavior problems are associated with decreased academic performance at baseline and that negative association continues over time (hypothesis 1). Furthermore, it was hypothesized that the association between behavior problems and academic performance differ by gender and race (hypothesis 2). Findings suggested that both hypotheses were at least partially correct.
At baseline, behavior problems did appear to have a negative relationship with academic performance wherein externalizing behavior impacted all three academic subtests (i.e., LW, AP, and PC) and internalizing behavior impacted PC and AP. Interestingly, the association of externalizing behavior with the AP score faded over time. However, the effect of externalizing behavior remained for LW and PC over time (hypothesis 1). Males also had higher externalizing scores than females and females performed higher than males on reading measures, which is consistent with previous research ( Ready et al., 2005 ). Although, interestingly, even though males scored higher on externalizing problems and, overall, lower on reading measures, externalizing behaviors appeared to have greater negative impacts on female children’s reading achievement in baseline than male children’s achievement (hypothesis 2). However, the long-term trajectories did not appear to be affected.
Our findings with regard to math performance over time appear to contradict previous findings ( Nelson et al., 2004 ). The difference in results between our study and that of Nelson et al. could be due to a variety of reasons. First, Nelson et al. worked with a sample with 155 youth with emotional/behavioral disorders and we based our study on a large national sample. Second, the data that we used were from a longitudinal data set rather than obtained through a cross-sectional design. Finally, Nelson et al. included multiple measures of math achievement from the Woodcock-Johnson III: math calculation, math fluency, and applied problems; whereas, the PSID dataset only included applied problems (AP).
Overall, our results agreed with Hinshaw’s (1992) theory which suggested that achievement and behavior are related. These results suggest that there is an inverse relationship between achievement and behavior and that this relationship has lasting effects over time, particularly for reading scores.
Our findings also corroborated results from other research demonstrating an achievement gap between Black and White students, with Black children performing lower than White children on the academic measures and significantly higher on the externalizing behavior measure (e.g., Rabiner et al., 2004 ). Most significantly, the results of the analyses suggested that behavior problems had a greater effect on Black children’s reading achievement as the children aged than on White children’s reading achievement as they aged (hypothesis 2). Using results in Table 5 to predict LW scores by age, race, and internalizing problems, the differences found between Black and White students at baseline were approximately one-third of a standard deviation on the LW subtest, but 14 years later that gap had widened to nearly three-quarters of a standard deviation. While Black and White children’s scores were just above average on LW (M = 100, SD = 15) at age 3, by age 17 White children’s scores remained near average and Black children’s scores dipped into the low average range. Even using parent-rating scales of children’s behavior, behavioral problems continued to affect students’ achievement. Specifically, behavioral problems appeared to affect females’ and Black students’ reading achievement.
These analyses have benefits over some of the previous research conducted concerning these topics: (1) the data set analyzed here was a longitudinal data set and the findings are based on performance over time rather than on a cross-sectional dataset, and (2) this analysis also simultaneously considered the relationship between externalizing behavior, internalizing behavior, race and gender, which few previous studies considered with a large sample.
4.1. Implications
A few important implications result from this study. First, even though behavior problems are concerns by themselves, the effect of behavior on reading skills is an especially critical finding particularly given research ( Allensworth & Easton, 2007 ), which suggests that course failure in English is a predictor for later school dropout. Our study revealed that the impact of behavior problems remains long-term for LW and PC, two subtests on children’s reading ability. This is an especially critical finding given that coursework becomes more reading intensive as students progress through school and may have critical implications for youth with externalizing behavior as they reach high school, particularly as these students may be most at risk for school dropout given that course failure and behavior problems uniquely contribute to dropout ( Allensworth & Easton, 2007 ). Practitioners need to consider how the interaction between externalizing behavior and reading difficulty affects student performance in classes that require significant reading and comprehension of text. In our study, externalizing behavior did not appear to affect math achievement as greatly as it did reading performance. This is an important implication for school-based screening of students with academic and behavior difficulties: measures of reading achievement and behavior might be useful in determining which students may need greater support. Although we did not find significant effects of behavior on math performance, previous research has found that math is greatly affected ( Nelson et al., 2004 ) particularly across time; thus, it remains an important consideration especially in light of its status as a predictor for school dropout by middle school and high school.
Our findings regarding the association between behavior and achievement suggest that school professionals should consider providing intervention in both domains to the same students; a reasonable way to do this may be to couple Response to Intervention and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports in schools. Such multi-tiered systems of support are also needed early, before children have really had the opportunity to begin the cycle of failure. This means that educators must remain vigilant in identifying students at-risk in these areas, perhaps by frequent screening. Given the findings that behavior problems may affect Black children’s reading achievement more profoundly and the conclusions of previous research that indicate overrepresentation issues pertaining to Black students in special education ( Hosp & Reschly, 2004 ), efficient and effective early intervention appears critical for these students.
Furthermore, in line with DeLisi and Vaughn’s temperament theory, changes within the classroom can enhance academic outcomes for children with difficult temperaments. Considering Rudasill et al.’s (2010) findings that teacher’s emotional support moderates the relationship between temperament and academic outcomes, training can be provided to foster teachers’ emotional support. In particular, Strengthening Emotional Support Services is a curriculum designed to equip teachers with behavioral management strategies and minimize classroom disruption, and has been found to increase academic engagement for students with behavioral and emotional disorders ( Sawka, McCurdy, & Mannella, 2002 ). Additionally, given aforementioned researched by Rudasill and Rimm-Kaufman (2009) , increased teacher training on relationship-building with children of all temperaments may also enhance academic outcomes.
4.2. Limitations
While this study offers improvements over research conducted with cross-sectional research designs, limitations are still present. First, this study was based on the PSID dataset, a large national, longitudinal dataset. The analyses presented here rely on the availability and quality of the data contained in PSID. For example, only three subsets of the WJ-R Tests of Achievement are available. The data collected for PSID were initially collected annually and then biannually after 1997. This means that data were not available yearly on outcomes after 1997; however, the growth curve modeling employed for analysis in this study does not require continuous (i.e., annual) data. In addition, the current study only uses behavior problems measured at Wave 1 to predict children’s long-term academic achievement and does not consider the changes of behavior problems in analyses, which may affect children’s academic achievement. Moreover, although various confounding variables were controlled for, there may be other child, parental, or school context characteristics that could possibly threaten these findings; for example, teacher-student relationships, quality of classroom management, and availability of resources at the school may be related to achievement as well. Finally, the reliance on parent-reported behavior may bias findings. While parent report of internalizing behavior has been found to be more highly associated with observed behavior than teacher reports, the opposite has been found for externalizing behavior ( Hinshaw, Han, Erhardt, & Huber, 1992 ). Additionally, research has found parents to report greater problems with externalizing behavior than teachers ( Verhulst & Akkerhuis, 1989 ; Stanger & Lewis, 1993 ). Bias could be reduced by utilizing reports from both parents and teachers, as has been suggested by Verhulst, Koot, and Van der Ende (1994) who found the use of parent and teacher reports together, rather than one or the other, to increase predictive power.
4.3. Future research
The finding that behavior problems appear to more negatively affect Black children’s reading thus widening the achievement gap gives rise to questions about how such a gap might be narrowed or rather how it can be ensured that all children perform at the height of their ability—that is, as a group, closer to the average on such norm-referenced or standardized tests. Future research might investigate whether all children with behavior problems should be provided with additional reading assistance or at the very least close progress monitoring in the area of reading. Moreover, future research might address how Response to Intervention and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports might be more closely aligned to be sure that children with behavioral problems are monitored for academic needs and that children with academic needs are monitored for behavioral problems. Finally, future research should continue to investigate the relationship between behavior problems and academic achievement with the realization that these issues might be related bi-directionally—that is, academic or behavior problems could be driving the other. Future researchers might work to distinguish directionality between the achievement and behavior variables using longitudinal data. This research is likely to have serious implications for how practitioners identify and intervene with at risk learners in today’s schools.

Disentangling The Effects Of Student Attitudes and Behaviors On Academic Performance
Susan Janssen , University of Minnesota Duluth Follow Maureen O'Brien , University of Minnesota - Duluth Follow
The interplay among motivation, ability, attitudes, behaviors, homework, and learning is unclear from previous research. We analyze data collected from 687 students enrolled in seven economics courses. A model explaining homework and exam scores is estimated, and separate analyses of ability and motivation groups are conducted. We find that motivation and ability explain variation in both homework and exam scores. Attitudes and behaviors, such as procrastination and working with others directly, affect homework score, but not exam score. These effects are not the same within all motivation and ability groups. Given that homework is the strongest predictor of exam score, we conclude that graded homework is beneficial to learning, and attitudes and behaviors related to homework may have an indirect benefit for exam performance. Suggestions are made as to how homework and course design might be managed to help students at different ability and motivational levels maximize learning.
