OBJECTIVE; To analyse prospectively the incidence of behavioural disorders and the subjective views of children with urge incontinence (defined by detrusor instability, sudden urge symptoms and frequent micturitions) and voiding postponement (characterized by delayed micturition in typical situations and a low voiding frequency) according to an identical protocol in a paediatric and a child psychiatric unit. ## Patients and method: Ninety-four consecutive or randomly selected children aged 5.0-10.9 years with either voiding postponement (52) or urge incontinence (42) were examined prospectively using an intelligence test (cft1 or cft20), the child behaviour checklist (cbcl 4/18), the icd-10 child psychiatric diagnoses and a structured interview. ## Results: In the groups from both centres combined, those postponing voiding had a significantly higher incidence of externalizing behavioural symptoms (31% vs. 8%; p < 0.01) and total problems (37% vs. 13%; p < 0.05) in the clinical range (cbcl), and a higher rate of at least one icd-10 child psychiatric diagnosis (54% vs. 29% p < 0.05) and of expansive disorders (31% vs. 5%; p < 0.01). the incidence of children with behavioural symptoms
