School phobia—its classification and relationship to dependency
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have studied 29 school phobic youngsters (14 boys and 15 girls), of mean age 12 years 10 months (SD = 147 months) shortly before admission to an adolescent psychiatric in-patient unit, with a diagnosis of severe difficulty in attending school, severe emotional upset at the prospect of having to go to school, staying home during school hours with the parents' knowledge and absence of significant anti-social disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
