Clarke, Angela Teresa; Kurtz-Costes, Beth
Journal of Educational Research, v90 n5 p279-85 May-Jun 1997
Researchers examined relationships among children's television viewing, school readiness, parental employment, and the home environment's educational quality. Thirty low-income parents completed surveys. Their preschoolers completed IQ and school readiness assessments. Television viewing adversely related to school readiness and the home environment's educational quality. Parental employment was not a significant influence. (SM)
