Résumé
L’agressivité physique excessive chez les jeunes enfants est un problème important en santé mentale, entraînant des dysfonctionnements en famille et en collectivité, voire l’exclusion sociale précoce. Les objectifs de cette étude sont de : a) spécifier les troubles cliniques chez 60 jeunes enfants, âgés de moins de 5 ans, orientés pour de l’agressivité excessive ainsi que leur profil développemental; b) cerner les caractéristiques des attitudes parentales et les articuler avec les profils développementaux des enfants. Les résultats sont discutés en termes des stratégies thérapeutiques adaptées qui peuvent être proposées pour aider ces enfants et leurs parents.

Abstract
Excessive aggression in young children is of major concern in the field of child mental health. They often disturb family and social life, and may even lead to early social exclusion. The aim of this paper is to specify the clinical troubles and the developmental profile of 60 preschool children under 5 years referred for excessive aggression. The second aim is to define parenting characteristics and to articulate them with the children's developmental profile. The results are discussed in terms of their implications for the therapeutic interventions that may be designed to help these young children and their family.
