Abstract
- The CAT (Children's Apperception Test) results of 42 orphanage children were analyzed and campared with those of the control group. The orphanage children expressed the aggression less frequently than the control group, which is the result of repressing the aggressive feeling due to the associated anxiety and guilty feeling. They believe they are not accepted and loved by others around them and try to be more submissive and compliant to be loved. It is difficult to draw any final conclusion from this study regarding the morality of the orphanage children due to small number of children studied. The orphanage children described parents in negativepictures, e.g. rejecting, hostile, immoral, more often than the control group.
