Investigated the academic and intellectual performance of disadvantaged children who had experienced one of four types of prekindergarten program or no prekindergarten at all. IQ measures did not differ significantly among preschool program groups, but differential effects in the three grades, related to both preschool program and sex, were noted in reading and math. (MP)
