This is a report of a four-year study begun in May 1960 to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of treating young psychotic children and the use of collateral group therapy with their parents. While other therapeutic measures were employed, the emphasis was on group treatment, and the report presents this process in considerable detail.

Originally published in 1965.
