  abstract: "The delinquent child is a child in trouble which is never wholly of his own making. Only by better understanding of how he came to do what he has done--to be what he is--can we apply effective measures for correction. Our juvenile courts have for some forty years or more become increasingly aware of the individual needs, emotional, physical, intellectual, of children who are brought before them. In this study Dr. Levy has approached the problem from an original angle. She selected from the New York Children's Court a homogeneous group of boys to receive rather more intensive individual therapy than a probation officer has time or perhaps skill to apply. As a psychologist she developed with the children selected for this experiment a relationship which produced changes in their outlook and understanding of their own situation. Her emphasis on adjusting the child to his environment when the environment is not capable of much modification is a practical one. Although the number of cases in this study is not statistically significant, no one reading Dr. Levy's account of the experiment can doubt that she has made a contribution to our insight into the handling of such problems"--Foreword.
