Examines relations
between aspects of early child care (age entered, full- or part-time
structure and number of child-care arrangements and their quality)
and school adjustment. Maternal education was found to be more closely
associated with children's school adjustment than maternal employment,
marital status, or aspects of child care. (PCB)
