A portion
of the Child Care Cost, Quality, and Outcomes study finds that quality
of center-based care was positively related to preschool children's
concurrent cognitive and
socioemotional development. More advantaged children are not necessarily
buffered from effects of poor quality care. In addition, stronger
positive effects of child care quality were found for children from
at-risk family backgrounds. (MT)
