Feb. 7, 2007
New research from the University of Michigan's School of Social Work indicates that poor children's cognitive skills and social and emotional development are not determined by low income per se, but rather by the ways their parents deal with the ensuing hardship.
The study's results were published as Elizabeth T. Gershoff, J. Lawrence Aber, C. Cybele Raver, Mary Clare Lennon (2007) Income Is Not Enough: Incorporating Material Hardship Into Models of Income Associations With Parenting and Child Development Child Development 78 (1), 70–95. doi:10.1111/j.1467-8624.2007.00986.x
