Economic Deprivation and Early Childhood Development.
Duncan, Greg J.; And Others
Child Development, v65 n2 Apr p296-318 1994
Examined the relationship between poverty and children's developmental outcomes, the effects of the timing and duration of poverty, and the effects of poverty at the family and neighborhood level, analyzing data from two longitudinal surveys. Found that poverty status was strongly related to low levels of cognitive development, even after accounting for other parental and environmental factors. (MDM)
