Abstract

The authors evaluate the hypotheses that duration and severity of craniofacial malformations correlate with psychosocial adjustment. Reviewing data from congenital and traumatic craniofacial malformation patients of varying ages, they find partial support for the hypothesized associations; however, the relationship between psychosocial adjustment and craniofacial deformity is far from straightforward.
