Maternal Employment and Children's Development: Longitudinal Research
ISBN: 9780306428678 / Angielski / Twarda / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In a review written in 1979, I noted that there was a paucity of research examining the effects of maternal employment on the infant and young child and also that longitudinal studies of the effects of maternal em ployment were needed (Hoffman, 1979). In the last 10 years, there has been a flurry of research activity focused on the mother's employment during the child's early years, and much of this work has been longi tudinal. All of the studies reported in this volume are at least short-term longitudinal studies, and most of them examine the effects of maternal employment during the early...

Sourcebook of Family Theories and Methods: A Contextual Approach
ISBN: 9780306442643 / Angielski / Twarda / 748 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Origins We call this book on theoretical orientations and methodological strategies in family studies a sourcebook because it details the social and personal roots (i.e., sources) from which these orientations and strategies flow. Thus, an appropriate way to preface this book is to talk first of its roots, its beginnings. In the mid 1980s there emerged in some quarters the sense that it was time for family studies to take stock of itself. A goal was thus set to write a book that, like Janus, would face both backward and forward a book that would give readers both a perspec tive on the past...
