Study develops
and evaluates the Family Involvement Questionnaire (FIQ), a multidimensional
scale of family involvement in early childhood education. Factor
analyses reveal three involvement constructs: school-based involvement,
home-school conferencing, and home-based involvement. Multivariate
analyses reveal that parents with education beyond high school were
engaged in higher levels of school-based involvement and home-school
conferencing. (Contains 50 references and 2 tables.) (Author/GCP)
