    Abstract:
    The psychological-statistical analysis of the resolutions concerning accommodation in a home by the Youth Welfare Services of the town of Rostock in 1973 includes 75 children and young people with (dissocial) behaviour disorders, their average age at that time being 14.0 years. The main phenomena were playing truant or idling, running away as well as difficulties regarding discipline. A remarkable fact is the large percentage of parents with lacking vocational training and the frequency of families with more than four children (10 times as high as the average of the population) with the rate of divorces being at the same time high (39%). 55 per cent of the persons with behaviour disorders did not have a normal school development, for example the percentage of the children attending schools for backward children was 14 times as high as the average of the other school children. As a consequence, the necessity of making an early use of advisory and educational measures is pointed out, especially in cases of such families with many children who are lacking the basic conditions for an education.
