家庭环境的测量经常用于儿童发展的研究。这一审查提供了关于由因果和形成性指标（经常用于捕捉家庭环境突出方面的指标）组成的指数的资料，并提出了可能有助于为不同人口构建此类措施的方法。家庭清单是用来说明学者面临的挑战，在确定什么包括在家庭环境的有用措施。为此，一个跨文化的审查家庭，家庭环境和儿童的结果之间的关系的研究。最后，对如何更好地研究不同人群的家庭环境与儿童发展之间的关系提出了一个计划。
Measures of the home environment are frequently used in studies of children’s development. This review provides information on indices composed of causal and formative indicators (the kind of indicators often used to capture salient aspects of family environments) and to suggest approaches that may be useful in constructing such measures for diverse populations. The HOME Inventory is used to illustrate challenges scholars face in determining what to include in useful measures of family settings. To that end, a cross-cultural review of research on relations among HOME, family context, and child outcomes is presented. The end of the review offers a plan for how best to further research on relations between the home environment and child development for diverse populations.
