The control group was selected from 40 children matched in age and sex with the affected subjects. Three scales were used for measuring control-related beliefs in three academic, behavioral and social domains: The Perceived Control Scale, Perceived Contingency Scale, and the Perceived Competence Scale. Multi-variate analysis of variance and descriptive statistics were used for statistical analysis. <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: kashida DIRECTION: ltr TEXT-INDENT: 0cm LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt MARGIN-RIGHT: 6.5pt unicode-bidi: embed TEXT-ALIGN: justify TEXT-KASHIDA: 0% mso-line-height-rule: exactly">Results: This study revealed significant differences in the control- and competence-related beliefs under the academic, behavioral and social domains between the internalizing and externalizing psychopathology groups and the normal control group (p<0.001). In competence beliefs, there were significant differences between the internalizing and externalizing psychopathology groups under the behavioral domain (p<0.001). No significant differences was observed in the belief of contingency between the three groups. <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: kashida DIRECTION: ltr TEXT-INDENT: 0cm LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt MARGIN-RIGHT: 6.5pt unicode-bidi: embed TEXT-ALIGN: justify TEXT-KASHIDA: 0% mso-line-height-rule: exactly">Conclusion: Control and competence beliefs are specific for internalizing and externalizing psychopathology and can differentiate mentally healthy states from psychopathology. Contingency belief does not have a significant correlation with psychopathology. Behavioral competence belief can differentiate externalizing from internalizing group and is considered specific for externalizing psychopathology states.<p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: kashida DIRECTION: ltr TEXT-INDENT: 0cm LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt MARGIN-RIGHT: 6.5pt unicode-bidi: embed TEXT-ALIGN: justify TEXT-KASHIDA: 0% mso-line-height-rule: exactly"> باورهای کنترل، آسیب‌شناسی روانی برون‌ریز، آسیب‌شناسی روانی درون‌ریز، کودکان control-related beliefs, externalizing psychopathology, internalizing psychopathology, children 140 147 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-1-164&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 Maryam Bakhtiari مریم بختیاری E-mail: dr.m.bakhtiari@gmail.com 18003194753284600619 18003194753284600619 Yes Rokhsare Yazdandost رخساره یزدان‌دوست 18003194753284600620 18003194753284600620 No Behrooz Birashk بهروز بیرشک 18003194753284600621 18003194753284600621 No Mahmoud Ghazi Tabatabie محمود قاضی طباطبایی 18003194753284600622 18003194753284600622 No
