Moore, Elsie G. J.
Journal of Negro Education, v56 n1 p44-52 Win 1987
Examination of the Intelligence Quotient of 46 Black children, half of whom had been adopted by White families and half by Black families, reveals that it is not just the ethnicity of the family of rearing that influences the development of the child's skills, but also the ethnic milieu that surrounds the family.
