Child-Care History and Kindergarten Adjustment.

Bates, John E.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v30 n5 p690-700 Sep 1994

Studied effects of previous amount of day care on social adjustment of children in kindergarten. Parents provided child histories; children were later assessed by teachers, peers, and observers. Children with higher day care (in 0-1, 1-4, and 4-5 years categories) scored higher on negative adjustment and lower on positive adjustment assessments in kindergarten. (TM)
