本研究使用7-10岁美国白色和非洲裔美国儿童的民族志数据，考察了社会阶层在塑造童年轮廓、生活节奏和节奏方面的作用，以及父母和儿童生活之间的交织量。以中产阶级和工人阶级的男孩为重点，结果表明，中产阶级的孩子花时间参加成人组织的活动，强调公众表现和技能发展。工人阶级儿童的生活往往围绕着非正式的游戏、探亲和“闲逛”。中产阶级儿童的活动，虽然形式上是休闲，但与学校活动相似。中产阶级子女的活动与其父母的工作性质也有相似之处。
Using ethnographic data of US white and African-American children 7-10 years of age, this study examines the role of social class in shaping the contours of childhood, pace and rhythm of life, and the amount of interweaving between parents' and children's lives. Focusing on middle-class and working-class boys, the results show that middle-class children spend time in activities organized by adults stressing public performance and skill development. Working-class children's lives tend to revolve around informal play, visiting kin and `hanging out'. Middle-class children's activities, while formally leisure, were similar to school activities. There are also parallels between middle-class children's activities and the nature of their parents' work.
