Child Competence and psychiatric risk. VI. Summary and integration of findings.
A review of the major findings of the five previous papers in the series is presented and points of integration of the results are noted. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of diagnosis in predicting child competence as well as on differences related to whether or not the mother or the father is the patient. Also, the need to design studies to tease out the relative contributions of patient and family variables is pointed out.
