Description

The Psychological Impact of Boarding School explores the long-term effects of boarding school experiences. This collection of research-based essays delves into various aspects of boarding school life, including its impact on mental health, relationships, and personal development. Through a combination of first-person narratives and larger-scale surveys, the book sheds new light on topics such as gender differences, eating behaviours, loneliness, and friendships formed at school. The research highlights the significance of age in determining psychological influences and the role of parent and family relationships in shaping boarders' lives. This book will appeal to professionals and individuals interested in understanding the impact of boarding schools from a personal or professional perspective, including psychologists, psychoanalysts, counsellors, academics, teachers, current and ex-boarders, and parents and guardians.
