摘要：

This study examined the relationship between family background and child care quality for 636 children enrolled in 120 day care centres in three stat es in the US with widely varying regulations for child care centre quality. Family characteristics accounted for a substantial portion of the variance in day care quality. Mothers' attitudes towards child-rearing and parents' education were the most potent family level predictors of quality. State child care policy variables were also strong predictors of quality. Findings also suggest that the influence of environment on children's development cannot be partitioned simply into family and out-of-home child care effects; rather, the child care environment is an extension of the family environment, with parents determining characteristics of both.
