Al. Pillay et Mbw. Vanderveen, PREVALENCE OF PARENTAL SUBSTANCE-ABUSE AMONG CHILD PSYCHIATRIC-INPATIENTS, Perceptual and motor skills, 84(3), 1997, pp. 947-953
Of 100 consecutive admissions to an acute child psychiatric facility i
n South Africa 43 had at least one substance-abusing parent, while 10
children were from families in which both parents abused substances. 2
3 children received a diagnosis of depression, but no significant asso
ciation was found between their diagnoses and parental substance-abuse
status.
