Abstract
This paper is a report on three case studies that I conducted while living at
Hogar Infantil, an orphanage in Chiapas, Mexico. I stayed at the orphanage for
two months, working with the subjects five days per week, for three hours each
day. My primary role was to tutor five 9 and 10 year old boys in all their
homework subjects. My objective for this paper was to observe the behaviors
and academic performance of three of the boys that were receiving psychological
attention on a weekly to biweekly basis. I gathered information for my study
while also serving as the eyes and ears of the volunteer psychologists who could
only spend a very limited time with each child.
