Marital Adjustment and Children's Academic Achievement.
Westerman, Michael A.; La Luz, Edgar J.
Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v41 n4 p453-70 Oct 1995
Investigated the relationship between marital adjustment and children's functioning at school and home. Marital adjustment was significantly related to two achievement measures (grades and teacher reports of school performance) and a trend was found for a third (achievement test scores). Significant associations also were found for other measures of school functioning and for children's behavior at home. (AA)
