Maternal deprivation, 1972-1978: new findings, new concepts, new approaches.

Research since 1972 in the field of "maternal deprivation" is critically reviewed. The results are used to reassess briefly the formulations proposed in 1972 and to discuss more fully the meaning and practical implications of fresh findings on new or recently revived topics. These include the development of social relationships and the process of bonding, critical periods of development, the links between childhood experiences and parenting behavior, influences on parenting, and the possible reasons why so many children do not succumb to deprivation or disadvantage.

[Situational reactions manifesting themselves in behavior disorders as a form of psychogenic (reactive) disorders in children and adolescents].

The paper is related to the history, elimination, clinical expression, systematics and the clinico-nozological place of the group of situational reactions expressed in disordered behaviour of children and adolescents. These reactions are considered as associated pairs, including interconnected psychological and pathological forms. Some common criteria delineating the psychological and pathological situational reactions are presented. The paper also contains a description of the main traits of psychological and pathological reactions of protest, rejection, imitation, compensation-hypercompensation. All these reactions are considered as a special group of psychogenic (reactive) diseases.

Possible conservation-withdrawal reaction in two infants.

Two breast-fed infants with weight loss are described. Despite their mothers' assertions that their breast-feeding was adequate, the infants gained weight rapidly on complementary feeding and became more responsive. Previously they had rather passively accepted suboptimal intakes, crying little and sleeping excessively. Discussion centers on whether these infants illustrated the conservation-withdrawal state, since apart from their poor weight gains, they were otherwise well.

Some considerations on the clinic treatment of children of divorce.

A case is presented involving counselling for a divorced mother and psychotherapy for her child. Review of the literature suggests that the suitability of a Child Guidance Clinic intervention when parents are divorced can depend on the age of the child, the nature of the parents' relationship and the timing of the referral. During the divorce crisis, children can be helped by a brief, individual intervention. After this period, family therapy--if possible to include the non-custodial parent--may help clarify issues relevant to the parents and remove the burden of symptom-carrier from the child. Long-term, individual psychotherapy for the child is crucially dependent on a sufficiently 'containing' setting and on parents who genuinely desire change. Our own experience has been that the clinic workers must always remain aware of the legal issues--i.e. which parent has custody, care and control--as this will determine who has the right to accept a treatment offer for the child.

Predictors of self-reported psychopathology in children abused repeatedly by a parent.

OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to test the influence of gender, type of abuse, and other factors on the development of psychopathology in abused children. METHOD: Forty-one children who had been abused repeatedly either physically or sexually by a parent or parent figure were given the revised Diagnostic Interview for Children and Adolescents. RESULTS: Logistic regression analyses showed: conduct disorder was predicted by male gender and increasing age regardless of type of abuse; post-traumatic stress disorder was predicted by number of stressors other than abuse and not by sexual abuse versus physical abuse. Predictors of somatization, psychotic symptoms, suicidal ideation, and separation anxiety also were identified. CONCLUSIONS: Gender, age, and stressors other than abuse contribute to the prediction of psychiatric disorder in abused children. Early interventions with young abused boys could help prevent development of violent behavior or conduct disorder; case work to reduce other stressors and treatments designed to reduce the impact of stressors may ameliorate developing post-traumatic stress disorders and other emotional disorders in abused children.

The authoritarian family and its adolescents.

Authoritarian Families possess characteristics similar to those of the Authoritarian Personality. They are power oriented, tend to have dichotomous conceptions, have emotional and intellectual rigidity and submit easily to authoritarian forces. The adolescents in such families are deprived of their basic needs for stability, flexibility and guidance. Consequently they feel frustrated and angry. Their anger manifests itself in various forms. A large percentage of these adolescents adopt their parents' attitudes and develop similar authoritarian personality characteristics. The second group are those who experience considerable conflict and tend to become aggressive and hostile in their interpersonal relationships. STill, there are adolescents who become withdrawn, depressed and apathetic and display great difficulty in dealing effectively with the ordinary demands of their lives. These adolescents and their families are difficult to treat. Several case histories are provided and brief outlines of a treatment approach are given.

[Depressive reactions in children following the loss of a paternal figure, by death or divorce].

A review of different viewpoints on the theme "Death and the child" is made. When the child loses a loved object, he has to accept it in the outside world and manage the changes in his inner world. If the lost object is very needed, his ability to comprehend death is obstructed. When and how it is possible to help the child to understand death, is also examined. Depending of the age, development stage, previous relationships with the dead person, each child reacts differently. Effects of divorce on children are studied. A method that provides better avenues for ellaboration to children is presented.

Don't forget the children.

Serious illness or hospitalization of a parent is potentially destructive to the mental health of the child. Stress is caused by both the separation and the illness itself. If the physician does not ensure that the situation is explained to the child, it is likely the child will be confused and frightened and any attempts at clarification will be blocked in the attendant family dysfunction. The general principles of prevention are to share the facts of the situation with the child and to allow him his natural and varied reactions. The family interview is useful in clearing up misunderstandings, sharing feelings and working out family roles.
