Initiating Day Care at Three Years of Age: Effects on Attachment
Moskowitz, Debbie S.; And Others
Child Development, 48, 4, 1271-6, Dec 77
The Ainsworth-Wittig strange situation was used to compare 12 42-month-old children with approximately 6 months of day care experience to individually matched children who had not had group child rearing experience. Results did not support the idea that day-care experience impairs attachment to the mother. (JMB)
