[The demonstration of communication behaviors in children with early psychoses].

The authors present a research project on the ways children suffering from early psychosis communicate non-verbally. These children are studied in their regular treatment center, using a behavioral method using a set of possibilities described for a normal young child. For the three children who were studied, rather different means of non-verbal communication were highlighted, which changed and were enriched when the adult taking care of them "improved" the way his interaction with the child was organized. Our findings raise questions concerning the semiology of these conditions and it's treatment.

[Pregnancies occurring after a perinatal death. Preparation of a psychological risk index].

The authors have interviewed 21 women who were attending the gynaecological and obstetrical service of the hospital for pregnancies occurring after a perinatal death. They show that anxiety is characteristic of these situations, but that the intensity of anxiety varies from woman to woman. They describe, after analysing the interviews, the different variations that can be found as these pregnancies progress according to the type of anxiety. By using a statistical analysis they can separate out the most important criteria and they can work out a method of illustrating a threshold which can easily be used by obstetricians in everyday practice. They suggest a method of handling the patients according to the level of anxiety found.
