Family Environment Factors and Children's Knowledge of Rules and Conventions.

Johnson, James E.; McGillicuddy-Delisi, Ann

Child Development, v54 n1 p218-26 Feb 1983

Investigated relationships among socioeconomic status, family constellation, parental practices, and preschool-age children's awareness of and rationales for rules and conventions. Children's knowledge of rules and conventions was related to social class variables. Parental behaviors were found to be better predictors of the level of children's knowledge than were demographic characteristics. (Author/RH)
