Examined the
relationships between day-care quality, children's emotional expression,
and temperament among 60 3- to 5-year-olds in 26 day-care centers.
Found that the appropriateness of the caregiving, but not the appropriateness
of activities in the child-care center, significantly predicted
the proportion of positive emotional affect in children's emotional
expression. (MDM)
