Quality of Center Child Care and Infant Cognitive and Language Development.
Burchinal, Margaret R.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n2 p606-20 Apr 1996
Examined relationships between quality of center-based child care and infant cognitive and language development. Subjects were 79 African American 1-year-olds. Found that quality of infant care positively correlated with scores on standardized assessment of cognitive development, language development, and communication skills. Quality of care in centers and at home was also related. (HTH)
