Identification patterns of offspring of Holocaust survivors with their parents.
The patterns of identification with their parents of a sample of children of Holocaust survivors showed clear differences from those of a control group. As the clinical literature would indicate, these differences suggest a specific character organization rather than psychopathology. An explanation for the lack of agreement on this issue in the empirical literature is proposed and explored.
