The purpose of this thesis is to compare mother-child relationships with respect to children born prematurely to mother child relationships with respect to children born at full term. It represents one aspect of a larger research project directed to the evaluation of the relationship between paranatal stress, cognitive organization and intrafamily dynamics. Mother-child relationships were measured by means of a modified version of the Fels Scale for the Appraisal of Parent Behavior consisting of eighteen variables of parental behaviour. The attitudes and behaviour of one hundred mothers in relation to their children was evaluated; fifty of them were the mothers of children born prematurely and fifty the mothers of children born at full term.
