Since children live with their parents and meet other children, we looked into the possible effects of language disorders in children on their interactions with the social surroundings. Language disorders are woven into the fabric of communication between parents and child and are not attributes of the child alone. Language-disturbed children are not more difficult in their behavior than normal-speaking children at the same age. However, the parental emotions about the language problem lead to the perception of more difficult behavior. Parents of language-disturbed children try to stimulate the language development of their child. In this they get disappointed by the reactions of the child and become less stimulating. It seems as if in the interactions between parents and child, the child partly creates his own--negative--surroundings.
This article describes a group project involving educational-therapeutic work on an inpatient basis with behaviourally disturbed adolescents. It shows how the integration of education and therapy, which is considered so necessary at the inpatient level, is achieved in group therapy and it describes as well the institutional framework within which the group project is carried out, as well as the type of practical experience with behaviourally disturbed adolescents which preceded the development and application of the group therapy work. The initial conditions, aims and the development process of the group therapy which took place over a period of two years are presented and four development phases are identified and explained. The article ends with observations concerning the self-evaluation of the group leaders, the general experience gained in the setting up of educational-therapeutic group work with behaviourally disturbed adolescents and a review of the preliminary results of the group project.
The author analyses the problems involved in the transfer of concepts and techniques from the basic sciences to the medical practice. The number of skills to be acquired in the course of medical training restricts the inclusion of the teaching in depth of basic sciences in the Curricula of medical schools. Post-graduate teaching cannot be used for that purpose unless it is geared to MD's fully dedicated to research. New discoveries in the basic sciences which may be relevant to medicine can only be made available to doctors through the development of basic research in medical institutions, playing the role of centers of excellence. Since basic research in the medical field is, by its nature, interdisciplinary, such policy entails the recruitment of scientists with non-medical background to whom career opportunities comparable to those of the doctors should be made available. In countries with small scientific communities the most important step in the stimulation of basic research is the identification of young talents and the support of existing productive groups. In the mid term, molecular biology, neurobiology and signal processing (specially image processing) seem to be promising areas from a medical point of view. Science should be considered a very important component of the cultural activity of a country.

The authors document a public education establishment for deaf-and-dumb children which uses the verbo-tonal method of Yugoslav Professor PETAR GUBERINA. They describe the educational activities, and draw a positive and encouraging picture of results obtained from its 8 years of operation, in spite of many difficulties.
