title: Epidemiological study of children institutionalised for psychiatric disorders.
abstract: A cross-sectional and longitudinal epidemiological study of children institutionalised for psychiatric disorders has been carried out. The differences of discharge distribution allows to describe an entanglement of three differents logics: the medical logic: diagnostic (Emotional and conduct disorder, Mental retardation, Psychosis), etiological organic factors, associated somatic disorder. the social logic: father's occupational level and etiological environnemental factors. the institutional logic: child's age when admitted, institutional categories.
