Abstract
An investigation material consisting of 120 persons who were born after refusal of an application for therapeutic abortion, with the same number of controls, was previously followed up by the writers to the age of 21 yr. This follow-up study was extended to completion of the 35th yr. In social-psychiatric respects the index cases as a group are still somewhat worse situated than the control cases. The differences have to a certain extent levelled out and during the later part of the observation period no statistically significant differences can be demonstrated for any single variable.
