    abstract = "The aim of this study was to investigate school-age children's perceptions and experience of family-related loneliness, and of coping with it. The literature review showed that these dimensions have not been empirically investigated. This study is part of a larger research program that examined children's perceptions of loneliness and its causes, as well as coping with loneliness strategies. Individual interviews were conducted (the interview was constructed on the basis of two pilot studies) and the projective technique of oral story was used with 180 second, fourth and sixth graders. Also, 758 fifth and sixth graders were asked to write a story about loneliness. The samples were randomly chosen from schools in Athens and Piraeus. Children's responses indicating their personal, subjective views of family-related loneliness are discussed within mainly the psychoanalytic developmental framework, and their importance for the construction of a developmental model of loneliness experience in childhood is noted."
