The psychosocial development of 16 boys placed in permanent substitute families between the ages of 5 and 9 was examined at 1, 12, 60 and 96 months into placement. Conduct and emotional problems fell significantly over the first year but relationship difficulties and overactivity changed little. There was no significant change beyond 12 months. By 8 years, 19% of placements had disrupted and 15% of the remainder had a poor outcome. The level of preplacement adversity predicted poor or disrupted outcomes, but outcomes for those with high adversity were better when parenting was very positive.
对16名5至9岁被安置在长期替代家庭中的男孩在安置后的1个月、12个月、60个月和96个月时的心理社会发展情况进行了考察。品行和情绪问题在第一年显著减少，但人际关系困难和多动情况变化不大。12个月后没有显著变化。到8岁时，19%的安置家庭关系破裂，其余家庭中有15%结局不佳。安置前的逆境程度预示着结局不佳或关系破裂，但当养育方式非常积极时，处于高度逆境中的孩子结局会更好。
