The Perception of Family Environment in Depressed and Normal Children

아동의 우울 정도에 따른 가족환경 지각에 관한 연구

Children's depression and perception of family environment were measured in 218 elementary school children with the use of the CDI(Children's Depression Inventory), CBCL(Child Behavior Check List) and FES(Family Environment Scale). Two-way ANOVA revealed that the scores of the depressed children were higher on the CBCL than the scores of the normal children. The degree of cohesion, independence, intellectual orientation, and organization was higher in normal than in depressed children, but the conflict of depressed children was higher than that of normal children.
