title: [Psychic development of children under conditions of longterm isolation (author's transl)].
abstract: Three children with severe combined immunodeficiency have been isolated for 19-22 months. Two of the children have been placed into the isolation system directly after delivery; on child entered the isolation system at the age of 5 months. The influence of this situation on the psychic development of the children was studied by the means of direct observation as well as by psychometric test methods. An additional child which has been isolated between the age of 6 and 32 months was retested at the age of 4 and 6 years. The reported observation which include those of the parents and the team allow the conclusion, that a normal development is possible under these extreme conditions, when an optimal clinical and psychological support is maintained.
