许多关于儿童保育质量的研究表明，在低质量儿童保育的情况下，与儿童功能较差有关，排除混杂因素，尤其是在认知语言表现方面。最近的工作使用的数据从国家儿童健康和人类发展研究所（NICHD）的早期儿童保育和青年发展研究（美国）清楚地表明，当儿童的早期负面情绪/困难的气质被考虑在内，它也预测外化的问题，通过小学教师报告。情绪消极的婴儿更容易受到儿童护理质量的影响，无论是好是坏，都比困难程度较低的婴儿更容易受到儿童护理质量的影响，因此后者似乎不受影响，但前者受益于高质量的护理，而受到低质量护理的不利影响。在这里，我们确定是否同样是真的，当孩子们在青春期重新研究，重点是他们自己的报告外化的问题，冲动和冒险。结果证明更符合环境行为的素质压力模型比差异易感性相关的，在15岁的孩子谁是高度消极的婴儿报告更多的外化行为（但不冒险或冲动），如果他们经历了低质量的儿童保育，但没有少的问题，如果他们经历了高质量的照顾相对于他们的同行在婴儿期较少困难的气质。结果进行了讨论，在生理压力，提供可能的解释，为什么预测性质的儿童保育经验可能会随着时间的推移而改变。
Much research on the quality of child care reveals it-in the case of low-quality child care-to be related to poorer child functioning, net of confounding factors, perhaps especially in the case of cognitive-linguistic performance. Recent work using data from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (USA) makes clear that when children's early negative emotionality/difficult temperament is taken into account, it also predicts externalizing problems reported by teachers through the primary school years. More negatively emotional infants are more affected-for better and for worse-by child care quality than less difficult ones, such that the latter appear unaffected by it but the former benefit from good quality care and are adversely affected by poor quality care. Here we determine whether the same is true when children are restudied in adolescence and the focus is their own reports of externalizing problems, impulsivity and risk taking. Results prove more consistent with a diathesis-stress model of environmental action than a differential-susceptibility-relatedone, in that 15-year-olds who were highly negative as infants report more externalizing behavior (but not risk taking or impulsivity) if they experienced low-quality child care, but not fewer problems if they experienced high-quality care relative to their counterparts with less difficult temperaments in infancy. Results are discussed in relation to physiological stress, with possible explanations offered as to why the predictive nature of child care experience might change over time.
