ABSTRACT
The coping and adaptation of 30 parents of children suffering from A.L.L. (during first remission), was studied with the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT--Indian modification). Emotional distress was evident in the stories of 83%, only 37% maintained an expectation of a positive outcome. Parents' psychiatric morbidity was found to be associated with the gender of the parent, employment status, and on the TAT--with the expectation of an unfavourable outcome, feelings of lack of self efficacy and emotional distress. Particularly depression. A significant association between the presence of psychiatric disturbance in the children and the parents was also found.
