Abstract EN:

The thesis analyses the relationship between the child and his environment and the psychological implications of this relationship for the process of identification and social insertion of childrenin the care of the public sector organisation setif (algerie) the results made clear the lack of a definite identify felt by abandoned children children who have never left un orphanage, something which was mirrored in the discordered nature of the drawings in which sexual differentiation was frequently not evident. The semi-directive interview discussing the child's perception of the future family such as he may well create himself at a later date, has allowed us to state that groups i and ii respectively of aboudoned children who have never left the orphonage and abandoned children with one or to two previous adresses were incapable of assessing thefuture in a satisfactory manner they were equally incapable of conceving the notion of loving relationships and a way of life different to that which they had already experienced. The analysis of the phenomenon of abandoned children grouped in an orphanage allows us to remark that relationships are deliberately orientated towards development at tere group level. In this instance, the "group" replaces the familly as the guiding influence.
