A University social research team
has launched a 14 month pilot
study of childhood and adolescent
behavior here.
A grant of $38,000 from National
Institute of Mental Health of the
U.S. Public Health Service will
finance the study.
It will cover children aged 8-18.
Study will include children from
different neighborhoods and fam-
ily backgrounds. It will involve
those who are outstandingly well
adjusted and creative and those
who are maladjusted and behaving
in ways that create problems.
L o c a1 school officials have
agreed to cooperate with the team
by providing scholastic and edu-
cational records, as well as inter-
views and tests for those involved.
Researchers hope to develop new
indices for identifying those soc-
ial situations that contribute to
adjustment and maladjustment.
Other objectives of research in-
clude development of systematic
means of studying peer associa-
tions of young children and ado-
lescents, including how these fit
in with socially ,approved stand-
ards of conduct.
Means of classifying problem be-
havior and problem situations in
terms of their meaning for the
child and comunity will also be
analyzed by the University group.
