Abstract
The TAT productions of 12 school-age, non-handicapped, but repeatedly placed foster home children in a semi-rural area were compared with those of a control group closely matched for age, sex, race, and grade. It was expected that foster children would be more concerned with affiliation, with death and departure, and with damaged and handicapped persons. Ample evidence was found that our foster children are concerned with affiliation, and some evidence found suggests that they are more depressed. No support was found for the expectation of concern with handicap. Foster children were clearly more productive in terms of quantity of verbalization.
