Depression and Object Loss in Acute Psychiatric Admissions
Abstract
The author studied depressed and nondepressed patients who were comparable in terms of age, social class, and parental age at birth to see if a greater incidence of past or present object loss occurred in either group. While no significant differences appeared, data suggest that losses in the five-to-nine-year age range would prove significant in a larger sample.
