Predicting Developmental Outcomes at School Entry Using a Multiple-Risk Model: Four American Communities.
Greenberg, Mark T.; Lengua, Liliana J.; Coie, John D.; Pinderhughes, Ellen E.
Developmental Psychology, v35 n2 p403-17 Mar 1999
Examined contributions of different risk factors to predicting children's psychological and academic outcomes at end of first grade. Found that each analysis level contributed to prediction of most outcomes; 18 to 29% of outcome variance was predicted; a common set of predictors predicted numerous outcomes; ethnicity showed little unique prediction; neighborhood quality showed small, unique prediction to externalization.
