| Abstract: | Comments on S. Scarr's (see record 1997-38813-002) review of child day care. The authors note that the article raises issues of whether high-quality child care is associated with child outcomes and whether a decision needs to be made between high-quality and affordable child care. The authors argue that Scarr fails to put issues of affordability & quality in a comprehensive framework. They discuss the importance of quality child care, the cost of quality child care, and the complexity of issues in quality child care. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
