Na grupi od 588 djece, iz 14 gradskih i 12 seoskih škola (M-306; Ž 282), čiji se roditelji nalaze na radu u inozemstvu, istraživana je putem analize crteža porodice učestalost pojave pojedinačnih smetnji. Od ukupnog broja promatrane djece, 54% ispoljava neki od istraživanih indikatora poremećaja (34% ispoljava 1 poremećaj, 15-2 indikatora, 5%-3 indikatora, 0,3%-4 indikatora). Između seoske i gradske djece nema razlike u zastupljenosti poremećaja, dok se u odnosu na spol uočava tendencija veće zastupljenosti smetnji u skupini dječaka. U pogledu zastupljenosti pojedinih indikatora, vidi se da je najviše prisutna anksioznost (33%), nezrelost i zavisnost (22%), depresivnost (17%), agresivnost i impulzivnost (13%). Dječaci u većem broju ispoljavaju depresivnost, agresivnost i izbjegavanje, a djevojčice opsesivno-kompulzivno nastojanje, anksioznost i zavisnost. Najveća zastupljenost poremećaja prisutna je na uzrastu od 9—14 godina. Dobiveni podaci imaju značenje utvrđivanja stanja i usmjeravanja daljih istraživanja, s razrađenijom metodološkom osnovom.A group of 588 children from 14 urban and 12 rural schools (306 males and 282 females) whose parents have been working abroad were tested for the frequences of individual disorders by applying the analysis of the drawing of the family.
