Abstract
-
Three to six year old children were asked to tell two spontaneous stories prior to being read a home crisis story about a parent being absent or a sibling being born; and then they were asked to tell two more stories. The purpose was to see what kind of symbolic organization the reading of a home crisis story would produce at different ages and whether structural regression.;All stories were sorted into groups of Parent separation, Sibling Birth, and No Crisis by raters unaware that any of the children had been read a home crisis story. Rather, they were told that children were in one kind of crisis or the other or in no crisis. Interrater agreement for sorting was high.;Two kinds of analyses were applied to the stories: symbolic and structural. The results indicated effects of hearing a home crisis story on stories told; and further a differential effect for children age-sensitive for one kind of crisis or the other. These data were related to the developmental theories of Bowlby.;Further research was suggested in order to focus more directly on the thematic content underlying home crises.
