The study found that as economic pressure increased, teachers rated children as having higher levels of behavioral problems. This suggests that economic pressure may have negative effects on children's behavior, possibly due to increased stress and family conflict. Choices A and B are unlikely, as economic pressure may lead parents to be more punitive and less affectionate towards their children. Choice C is possible but not supported by the study.
