Re: RATES OF DEVEL DELAY MALTX CHILDREN



Dear Sharon,

I have just finished my research on BioPsychoSocial Profiles of abused
children.
One of the major conclusions are that deferent kind of abuse has deferent
biopsychosocial profile.
My population study was primary school children (age 7-12), yet, according
to this,  it will be very interesting to look for deferent developmental
problems - broken down by kinds of abuse.

Bye, Moshe.
