Violence and Touch Deprivation in Adolescents.
Field, Tiffany
Adolescence, v37 n148 p735-49 Win 2002
Children and adolescents who are diagnosed as conduct disordered and violent have less physically intimate relationships. This may be a factor in the development of their disorder. Physical contact treatments like massage therapy may help reduce their aggressive behavior and normalize their EEG and biochemical profiles. (Contains 79 references.) (GCP)
