The purpose of this research, which was carried out for the first time in Greece, is to focus on the early detection of preschool children’s externalizing problems, according to their teachers’ perceptions. Seventy seven preschool teachers (N = 77) of 77 half-day and all-day preschool classes from the thirteen regions of Greece, completed: (a) the “Caregiver-Teacher Report Form (C-TRF) for ages 11⁄2 -5” of Achenbach (Achenbach & Rescorla, 2009) and (b) the “Demographic Questionnaire” (Doni, 2015), considering 1,234 mixed gender (617 boys and 617 girls) children 4-6 years of age. Preschool teachers detected externalizing problems in 11.8% of their students, of whom 3.0% were included in the borderline range and 8.8% in the clinical range. Αttention problems were detected in 7.0% of the children and aggressive behaviour in 5.6% of them. Statistical analysis showed that preschool teachers detected more externalizing problems in boys and children who attend all-day kindergartens than in girls and children who attend half-day kindergartens. Moreover, attention problems and aggressive behaviour seem to be detected less frequently in classrooms with a large number of students. These results could be used as a reference point for future studies on behavioural difficulties in preschool children.
