Abstract |
The effectiveness of the Avance Parent-Child Education Program in teaching low-income, Mexican American mothers of infants to teach their own children was examined. In two program waves, 486 mother-child dyads participated in program or control groups. Significant program effects were found on Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment (HOME) scores, on view of self as teacher, and on videotaped mother-child interactions. Program participants became highly skilled teachers of their young children, and the results continued to be present at a 1-year follow-up. |
