This study investigated the behavioral adjustment of sixty-one children ages four to sixteen years during the terminal illness and first year following a sibling's death from cancer. Using the Child Behavior Checklist, data on behavior problems and competence were collected from parents and teachers. Data collection occurred before death during the terminal phase, and two weeks, four months, and one year post death. The results of data analysis by t-test comparisons generally indicated that the bereaved siblings demonstrated significantly higher levels of behavior problems and significantly lower social competence in comparison to normal children. The implications for practice are discussed
