Early Childhood Education and Development Child and Adolescent Psychosocial and Emotional Development Attachment and Relationship Dynamics

Abstract

Evidence concerning the effects of infant day care on attachment and later social behavior is reviewed. Although methodological problems, common to research with infants, undermine the findings of many studies, family situations and children's individual traits are identified as influencing their response to early group care, particularly for boys. Overall results suggest that, as a matter of sound public policy, alternatives to day care be made available to families with infants.
