The involvement of families with a child who has mental retardation in residential placement was studied. Sixty-two families who had placed their child out of the home within the previous 2 years were interviewed about behavioral and emotional aspects of involvement. Involvement was high, with 81% of families having at least a monthly visit with their child. There was only marginal evidence for detachment, a lessening of involvement over these 2 years. Although family involvement related to several child and family characteristics, the strongest relation was with facility characteristics, especially opportunities for involvement in the facility.
对有智力障碍儿童的家庭在寄宿安置中的参与情况进行了研究。对62个在过去两年内将孩子安置在家庭外的家庭就参与的行为和情感方面进行了访谈。参与度很高，81%的家庭至少每月看望一次孩子。在这两年中，只有极少的证据表明存在疏离现象，即参与度降低。尽管家庭参与与几个儿童和家庭特征有关，但最密切的关系是与机构特征有关，特别是在机构中参与的机会。
