New .York University psychiatric researchers studied these and 18 other children with murderous behavior and found the most significant factor that seemed to contribute to their be havior was having a violent father. Dr. Dorothy Otnow Lewis re ported the findings in the Feb ruary issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry and said most of the disturbed youngs ters had come from homes filled with violence. “Witnessing and being the victim of rage and frustration that, when directed inward, ex pressed itself as suicidal be havior,” she wrote. “When dire cted outward and displaced from the father, it manifests it self as homicidal aggression.” Dr. Lewis and her associates studied the medical records of 51 children between the ages of 3 and 12 who had been admitted to a child psychiatry service in a midtown hospital during a one- year period. Twenty-one of the children were judged to have been homi- cidally aggressive. Nine had attacked siblings, five had attacked mothers, three had attacked teachers and four had attacked other relatives or ac quaintances. None had attacked his father, and only two said they wanted to. The researchers said the psychiatric symptoms of those childrenjudged to be homicidal- ly aggressive were surprisingly similar to the non-homicidal children. Almost all of the children in both groups had a mother in the home, but few households had a biological father steadily living at home. But when the fathers did appear, the report said that they were physically violent to the mothers in 62 percent of the households of homicidal chil dren compared With only 13 percent of the households of non-homicidal children. “In fact, 37 percent of the fathers of homicidal children themselves had been homicidal as had 13 percent of the fathers of the non-homicidal children,” the report said. Alcoholism also was signifi cantly more common in fathers of homicidaily agressive chil dren. The researchers found that in contrast to the fathers,oc percent of the mothers of group had been in troiife the law. But 43 percenij mothers of the honiicidjli dren had a history of psytlj hospitalization whileonlyi; cent of the mothers of lit homicidal children hath® history. ★ ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ ★★★★★★★*★+*♦ + * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *- * * * * * * *- * * * * * + + * * * * * * * GET HAPPY FEET Pull An * * ★ k + •*•*•*•*•*• * * * w ★ ★ ★ ★ Siperdance '*****;• l&ftNCEll SPONSORED BY APO & OPA All-Nighter For MDA FIRST PRIZE: Home Stereo Speakers — Babb Audio Car Stereo System — Concord Car Speakers — Babb Audio SECOND PRIZE: 2 Sony Walkmans — Premier Video THIRD PRIZE: 2 Aggie Diamonds — Zales Feb. 19-20 12 noon to 12 nooi The Commons MSC Sbisa BRAZOS CENTER REGISTER (JAN. 24-FEB. 18) 11 00*2: Oi 10:00-3:00 11:00-2: Registration Fee $2.50 per person All proceeds to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association. &' ★ ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ ★ ★★ [Jen; Cor b X Sch Qui ub ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★*★ T THE ACADEMY: It’s graduates are among the leaders in Government, the Military and Industry.
