The Impact of Family Structure on the Adjustment of Adopted Children.
Brodzinsky, David M.; Brodzinsky, Anne B.
Child Welfare, v71 n1 p69-76 Jan-Feb 1992
A study of psychological and academic adjustments of 130 adopted children of 6 to 12 years of age living in 5 different family constellations showed few significant differences from 1 family cluster to another. These results suggest that family structure plays a minor role in adjustment to adoption. (Author/BB)
