Examined the
effects of parent involvement on child adaptation and growth of
autonomy during a home-school transitional year. Found that parent
involvement had significant potential for change in children who
struggled with problems of attachment and other issues of adaptation,
and enhanced the quality of the nursery school experience for the
children who were ready for it. (AA)
