In what ways do parental working conditions affect child development? How do the child care arrangements that substitute for parental care affect child social and cognitive outcomes? How stable are these effects? This project will use the National Longitudinal Survey's Youth Cohort (1979 through 1988) and interviews with the mothers' children in 1986 and 1988 to investigate these interrelated issues. Our first specific aim is to develop more adequate measures of paternal working conditions using both longitudinal survey and archival data, and study the relationships between these and comparable measures for mothers within the context of child outcomes. Our second aim is to use the 1988 re-survey of the NLSY children to evaluate the stability of intergenerational transmission of parental working conditions' effects over time. Our third specific aim is to use the size of the data set (N-1, 362) to more fully evaluate hypotheses suggesting statistical interaction that have not been adequately evaluated with small samples. The significance of the project lies in its focus on the extent of transmission of intergenerational inequality to young children, its consideration of both maternal and paternal working conditions' effects on child outcomes, and its inclusion of child care arrangements as a critical intervening construct. Our key dependent variables include social and cognitive measures derived from the Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist and the Peabody Individual Achievement Test, with the Campos Temperament and HOME Scales acting as key intervening variables. Measurement of both paternal and maternal working conditions and child care arrangements will reflect both quality and stability. We will study 3-6 year olds in 1986 and 5-8 year olds in 1988, where samples include all for whom we can verify that there was some paternal working activity during the child's life, where child care data pertains to that child, and where we exclude children with disabilities or medical conditions that might constrain child care options. Our initial analyses will estimate a recursive causal model incorporating the key variables plus numerous controls for maternal perceptions and actions and maternal and paternal background. Our subsequent analyses will include longitudinal measures of child car arrangements and parental working conditions within a non-recursive framework estimated using LISREL VI.

父母的工作条件如何影响儿童发展？ 如何 做替代父母护理影响的托儿安排 儿童社交和认知结果？ 这些效果有多稳定？ 这 项目将使用国家纵向调查的青年队列（1979年） 直到1988年），并在1986年和1988年对母亲的孩子进行采访 调查这些相互关联的问题。 我们的第一个具体目的是 使用两者都采取更适当的父亲工作条件的衡量 纵向调查和档案数据，并研究 这些在孩子背景下的母亲的措施和可比的措施 结果。 我们的第二个目的是使用1988年的NLSY儿童的重新调查 评估父母代际传播的稳定性 工作条件随着时间的推移的影响。 我们的第三个具体目的是使用 数据集的大小（N-1，362），以更全面评估假设 提出尚未得到充分评估的统计相互作用 与小样品。 该项目的重要性在于它的重点 代际不等式向年轻人传播的程度 儿童，对母亲和父亲工作的考虑 条件对儿童结果的影响及其包括儿童保育 布置是关键的干预构造。 我们的关键因变量包括得出的社会和认知措施 从Achenbach的儿童行为清单和Peabody个人 成就测试，坎波斯气质和家庭秤充当关键 中间变量。 衡量父亲和产妇的工作 条件和托儿安排将反映质量和 稳定。 我们将在1986年学习3-6岁的孩子，1988年5-8岁的孩子 样本包括所有的样本，我们可以验证是否有一些 孩子一生中的父亲工作活动，儿童保育数据 与那个孩子有关，我们排除了残疾儿童或 可能会限制儿童保育选择的医疗状况。 我们的最初 分析将估计包含密钥的递归因果模型 变量以及众多对产妇的看法和行动的控制以及 母亲和父亲背景。 我们随后的分析将包括 儿童汽车安排和父母工作的纵向措施 使用Lisrel VI估计的非恢复框架内的条件。
