It was believed that an analysis of certain data obtained from the case records of the Clinic through use of a case reading schedule of eleven items and follow-up interviews with a group of twenty patients who did not return to the Clinic for the recommended treatment, would give some indication of the possible factors involved.

The children represented in the study were admitted to a children's institution which provided for their physical and supervisory care. Major attention throughout the study was focused on the parental problems as reflected in the impairment in ability of the parents for continued care of their children. The study does not endeavor to isolate or define the specific causalities of parental impairment. It does propose to show categorically the types of problems existing with the break-down of parental care of the children"--Introduction.
