Working and Watching: Maternal Employment Status and Parents' Perceptions of their Three-Year Old Children.
Bronfenbrenner, Urie; And Others
Child Development, v55 n4 p1362-78 Aug 1984
Investigates whether the hypothesis that the mother's work situation influences parents' perceptions of their three-year-old children can explain reported differences in effects of maternal employment on the child. The sample consisted of 152 white, two-parent families. Results support the generalization that maternal employment may entail both significant costs and benefits for childrearing. (Author/RH)
