title: [A report on studies on the child's adaptation to school and family environment after neoplastic disease].
abstract: The objective of this study was to learn the course of child's adaptation process to school and family environment following the neoplastic disease. The study also aimed select the environment and personality factors influencing adaptation effect. The study pertains to the child's personality and how it works at home and at school. It also tries to get to know the child's environment. 65 children of different social environment were studied. Motor functions of these children were limited as the result of tumour disease. Special scale of adaptation was prepared when the research was over. By means of this sale two groups of children were distinguished: those who were well adapted to the environment and those who were not. Statistical analysis was used to compare the groups on account of the following factors: health factors including: a kind of tumour, duration of the disease, prevalence of pain, manipulation and locomotive abilities, visibility of handicap; sociological factors including: age and sex of studied persons, the place of residence and education of parent's, living standard of the family, a degree of family participation in cultural life of the society, mother's attitude towards the insane child. These factors allow to formulate the following dependences: The more a level of the child's locomotive functions, following neoplastic disease approaches to the standard, the more favourable course takes the process of child's adaptation to the family and peers. If a neoplastic disease leaves permanent and always visible handicap then child's adaptation effect to the environment is not favourable. An active participation of the family in socially life is beneficial for regular adaptation of a child. Personality development as the result of participation in cultural life allows socially accepted defence mechanism to work in stress situations connected with the disease. Parent's rational attitude towards an insane child correlates with a beneficial child's adaptation to an environment. Other factors did not differentiate the two groups statistically. During clinicalontgenetic analysis concerning particular studied cases, 3 models of nonfunctional adaptation were distinguished: maladjustment of aggressive type prevailing among the children with permanent physical handicap coming of families characteristic for socially nonaccepted standard of behaviour; maladjustment of neurotic type prevailing among the children coming of compliant families whose adult members manifest neurotic vegetative reactions in difficult situations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
