Abstract
The literature is scant regarding the details of the personality organizations of children exhibiting functional hearing losses. Projective data gleaned from five clinical cases of childhood functional hearing loss is presented. The core pathology involves a poorly consolidated image of the self. Threats to the continuity and cohesiveness of the self are avoided through a form of selective inattention.Entities:
