Parent-Focused Intervention: Diffusion Effects on Siblings.
Seitz, Victoria; Apfel, Nancy H.
Child Development, v65 n2 Apr p677-83 1994
Examined whether intervention provided to low-income parents of firstborn children produced delayed benefits for later children by studying younger siblings of children in a family-support program. Found that intervention group siblings had better school attendance, were less likely to need remedial services, and were more likely to be making normal progress in school than control group siblings.
