Results:①The scores of Category, Touch Operating, and Proceeding subtests in H.R.B of urban children were significantly higher than those of rural children.②There were significant differences in parenting behaviors between the parents of urban children and rural children.③There were significant correlations between parenting behaviors and H.R.B performance. Conclusion: Parenting behavior could be an influential factor in the development of neuropsychological functioning in children.
