The Effect of Mothers' Social Support and Life Changes on the Stimulation of Their Children in the Home.

Pascoe, John M.; Earp, Jo Anne

American Journal of Public Health, v74 n4 p358-60 Apr 1984

The relationship between mothers' life changes, social support, and the preschool home environment of their children was analyzed three years after all study children were discharged from a neonatal intensive care unit. Regardless of number of life changes, mothers reporting more social support provided a more stimulating home environment. (Author/CJM)
