A community based research project was undertaken to discover whether early mother separation was related to adult mental disorder. A population sample of 73 women aged 40-49, who experienced continuous mother absences in excess of 1 year due either to family difficulties (n = 42) or external factors (n = 31), were interviewed about early life experiences and mental health. Controls (n = 69) matched for parental social class and age at father death were similarly interviewed. Three self-administered tests, the Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire, a modified Zung Depression Scale and the Navran Dependency Scale of the MMPI were also completed. It was shown that separation alone was unrelated to adult psychopathology or mental disorder. Poor preseparation maternal relationships, both alone and in combination with two or more changes of care plus unsatisfactory replacement care, contributed to an increase in psychiatric morbidity and psychopathology.
开展了一项基于社区的研究项目，以探究早期母婴分离是否与成人精神障碍有关。对73名年龄在40至49岁之间的女性进行了抽样调查，她们因家庭困难（42人）或外部因素（31人）经历了持续超过1年的母亲缺失，就其早年经历和心理健康状况接受了访谈。选取了在父母社会阶层和父亲去世时的年龄方面与之匹配的对照组（69人）进行同样的访谈。还完成了三项自我管理测试，即米德尔塞克斯医院问卷、改良的zung抑郁量表和明尼苏达多相人格调查表的纳夫兰依赖量表。结果表明，单纯的分离与成人精神病理学或精神障碍无关。分离前母婴关系不佳，无论单独出现还是与两次或更多次的照料变化以及不令人满意的替代照料相结合，都会导致精神疾病发病率和精神病理学的增加。
