Toward a Grounded Theory of Parent Preschool Involvement.
Petrie, Allison J.; Davidson, Iain F. W. K.
Early Child Development and Care, v111 p5-17 Jul 1995
Examined the effects of parent involvement on child adaptation and growth of autonomy during a home-school transitional year. Found that parent involvement had significant potential for change in children who struggled with problems of attachment and other issues of adaptation, and enhanced the quality of the nursery school experience for the children who were ready for it.
