对婴儿期和幼儿期广泛的全日制儿童保育的研究表明，对儿童的社交情感发展有消极、积极和无影响。目前的研究探讨了对日托中心质量（例如看护者与儿童的互动、看护者与儿童的比例）以及家庭环境（例如父母的压力、纪律）进行评估后 4 年后儿童行为调整的预测。参与者包括 141 名学龄儿童（73 名女孩）及其职业母亲（91% 为欧美人），这些母亲在孩子还是幼儿或学龄前儿童时就接受了全职托儿服务。家庭环境因素和早期行为可以预测 4 年后适应的个体差异，尤其是母亲对儿童行为的评分。相比之下，中心质量指标通常与母亲和老师的行为调整评分无关。版权所有 (C) 1996 儿童心理学和精神病学协会。
Studies of extensive, full-time child care in infancy and early childhood have shown negative, positive and no effects on children's social-emotional development. The current study explored the prediction of children's behavioral adjustment 4 years after assessments of daycare center quality (e.g. caregiver-child interactions, caregiver-to-child ratios) and of the home and family environment (e.g. parental stress, discipline). Participants included 141 school-age children (73 girls) and their employed mothers (91% Euro-American) who had made use of full-time child care when the children were toddlers or preschoolers. Home environment factors and earlier behaviors were predictive of individual differences in adjustment 4 years later, particularly for maternal ratings of child behaviors. By contrast, indicators of center quality were generally unrelated to mother and teacher ratings of behavioral adjustment. Copyright (C) 1996 Association for Child Psychology and Psychiatry.
