Etre gardé ou non par la mère, quelles incidences scolaires chez les enfants de grande section ?

1997

The paper presents a study focuses on the impact of various types of child-care on academic acquisitions observed at the end of kindergarten. Even if children cared for by their own mother do obtain poorer scores, the effect of a specific type of care, other things being equal, proves nearly equal to zero. But some more precise effects (of one type of care on a specific performance), and interaction effects (with factors such as sex difference) are observed too. It would be interesting for research to investigate more throroughly the quality of various types of care.
