The mean age was 13.9.

A total of 7 children out of 550 had secondary nocturnal enuresis.

Four children completed the Rorschach Inkblot test.

Four children without secondary nocturnal enuresis were included in the control group.

Responses scored using Exner's Comprehesive system.

The findings indicated that enuretics differ significantly from the normals on affect, self perception and interpersonal perception.

Successful programs should focus on enhancing self-esteem and reduce anxiety and depression in the enuretic child.
