Abstract:
Decades of research studies suggest that the quality of parenting skills and parenting knowledge about children’s development have profound effects on children’s development. Studies to date show that most adults lack knowledge of child development and developmentally-appropriate child guidance. These studies, however have focused on white, middle-class, well-educated women and are limited in the range of issues addressed. The purpose of this study was to gain a more accurate understanding about adults’ knowledge of child development and child guidance by assessing female and male adults using an ethnically diverse population. Data from 705 adult participants showed that adults knew more than expected about child development, but lacked knowledge about developmentally-appropriate child guidance. Knowledge also varied by the amount of child development coursework taken. Results also showed that females were more knowledgeable than males, and knowledge varied somewhat by ethnicity with European-Americans being more knowledgeable in both child development and child guidance than other ethnic groups. These findings suggest that more work needs to be done to disseminate research- and evidence-based findings about child development and child guidance as the implications of this knowledge for child well-being are profound. The results of this study help to inform the design and content of parent education classes and related interventions to address gaps in knowledge and skills.

Abstract:
This brief review focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of human lactation for the mental development of children. The review covers theree tapies: (1) Correlation between type of feeding and  performance  on  different  mental  tests  administered befare and after the first three years of postnatal life, (2) Prevention of nutritional deficiencies that have adverse effects on cognition and prevention of sequels from pre-term births and low birth weight; (3) Contamination of human milk.The purpose is to provide a representative view of these three tapies. Our evaluation of the publised data shows that the information does not allow for definitive conclusions, particularly in reference to the first and third tapie. The  strongest available evidences is found on studies of the effects of free fatty acids on cerebral growth and on longitudinal studies of pre-term children of low birth weight. In our impression it is necessary to evaluate carefully the recommendation of the World Health Organization regarding the benefits of lactation in those cases when drugs or enviromental minerals and chemicals  have contaminated human milk.
Esta reseña focaliza las ventajas y desventajas que ofrece la lactancia para el desarrollo mental del niño. Los estudios se refieren  a tres temas:  1) correlación entre tipo de alimentación y rendimiento en diversas pruebas de desarrollo mental  antes y después de los primeros tres años de vida;  2) prevención de deficiencias de nutrimentos que afectan adversamente el desarrollo del niño y prevención de secuelas en el desarrollo en niños  nacidos antes de termino y con bajo peso; y 3) contaminación de la leche de pecho por drogas y contaminantes ambientales.Se presenta una visión sobre los efectos del amamantamiento dentro los tres temas a tratar. Nuestra evaluación indica que los estudios no permiten llegar a conclusiones definitivas, particularmente en  el caso de los temas uno y tres. La mejor evidencia disponible se refiere al segundo tema; sobre todo en el caso de los efectos de los ácidos grasos en  el desarrollo del cerebro y aquellas provenientes de estudios longitudinales de niños que nacieron antes de termino y con muy bajo peso. En nuestra opinión es necesario  obrar con mucha cautela en la evaluación  de las recomendaciones de la Organización Mundial de la Salud sobre la lactancia  en  aquellos casos en los que la leche de pecho puede estar contaminada por drogas o por contaminantes ambientales.

Abstract:
This study’s purpose was to allow space for the voice of mothers in the realm of child care subsidy and child development research. Four Canadian mothers storied their experiences of their child(ren)’s development during a time in which they lacked child care subsidies. Each participant participated in a semi-structured interview designed to invoke narratives relating to their experience of their child(ren)’s development. Though each of the participants’ stories was analyzed individually, a cross-sectional analysis revealed common themes which spanned across each of their stories. These themes included a desire for a community, a sense of struggle, feelings of guilt, and changes. The mothers shared, through their narratives, that each perceived lack of child care subsidies as negatively affecting their child (ren)’s development. Implications of the study’s findings on social work practice at various levels of intervention were discussed, as well as recommendations for future research inquiries.

Abstract:
The topic discussed in this thesis concerns a reality that closely lies at my heart: child labour, in fact, does not just represent an obstacle towards economic and social development, but first of all constitutes a violation of human rights. It is a plague that still continues to affect not only the world poorest countries, in which high rates of illiteracy, misery and the presence of deeply rooted cultural attitudes make child labour a challenging problem to eradicate, but also the developing ones. In the first part of the dissertation I deal with the international legislation concerning child labour, from its definition and causes to the ILO and UN Conventions and Protocols aimed at protecting children from all forms of exploitation and illicit activities. In particular I pay major focus on the ILO Minimum Age Convention No. 138 (1973), the ILO Worst Forms of Child Labour Convention No. 182 (1999) and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), the three most important documents on children rights. I also examine in broad terms the legal frameworks characterising different geographic areas - namely EU and Eurasia, Asia and the Pacific, North of America, Latin America and the Caribbean, Sub-Saharan Africa, Middle East and North Africa - and which programmes have been implemented by governments in order to address child labour issue. Furthermore, I analyse more in detail how child labourers are involved in the production process in some of the most commonly used goods at global level, such as cotton, sugarcane, cocoa and gold. In the second part I describe how a sustained economic development reduces child labour over time, and the results suggest serious commitment by governments to promote long term growth in order to curtail the threat of child labour.

Abstract:
The impact of early attachment relationships and child-adult attachment relationships to children’s social and emotional development has been recognised for a long time. Since the pioneering attachment theories of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth highlighting the importance of secure child-adult attachments, many other theories from various perspectives have risen to fill in the gaps. These theories are examined with the framework of foster care in mind. In Finland, the primary solution for children in insufficient care is family-based foster care. In practice, a child is placed in a new family, while maintaining contact with their biological family. Previous studies have shown that young children tend to form new attachment relationships in the foster family (Cole, 2005). The formation of new attachment relationships in foster care settings can be affected by many external factors, such as foster parent behaviour (Schofield & Beek, 2008; Dozier et al., 2006), foster parents’ attitude towards biological parents (Andersson, 2008) and age of the child at the time of placement (Smyke, Zeanah, Fox, Nelson & Guthrie, 2010). Some studies also suggest that keeping contact with biological parents may in fact increase the foster child’s chances of forming secure attachments in the foster family and identifying with the foster family (Haight et al., 2003). In addition to existing theories and foster care studies and interventions, this thesis utilises the narratives of three Finnish foster mothers in answering the research question: “How do foster mother-child attachment relationships develop in foster families?” The foster mothers were instructed to write about their relationship with their foster child(ren), with reference to the development of their relationship, the nature of the current relationship, and what they think their relationship will be in the future. The three narratives are analysed from a phenomenological perspective, with the help of Giorgi’s Psychological Phenomenological Method. All of the three narratives give accounts of attachment formation between the foster mother and foster children, and include reference to themes such as age at time of placement, the process of forming an attachment, and keeping contact with the biological family. They also bring out the paradoxical nature of fostering a child, of not being the real parent but having to behave as one, and how this affects the foster mother emotionally. All three foster mothers highlight the impact of the foster child’s previous attachment relationships to the formation of their relationship with the child. Furthermore, the foster mothers’ experiences give reason to believe that the younger the child is at the time of placement, the easier it is for them to form an attachment to the foster mother
Varhaisten lapsi-aikuinen kiintymyssuhteiden vaikutus lapsen sosiaaliseen- ja tunnekehitykseen on jo pitkään tunnistettu. John Bowlbyn ja Mary Ainsworthin uraauurtavat kiintymyssuhdeteoriat painottavat etenkin turvallisen kiintymyksen tärkeyttä lapsen tulevan kehityksen kannalta. Näiden tunnettujen kiintymyssuhdeteorioiden jälkeen muita, eri näkökulmista kiintymystä tarkastelevia teorioita on kehitetty lisäämään ymmärrystämme kiintymyssuhdeilmiöstä. Tässä tutkimuksessa kiintymyssuhdeteorioita tarkastellaan nnen kaikkea sijaisperhetoiminnan näkökulmasta. Jos lapsi joudutaan sijoittamaan muualle kuin biologisen perheensä luo syystä tai toisesta, on Suomessa ensisijainen ratkaisu sijaisperhehoito. Käytännössä tämä tarkoittaa, että lapsi siirretään uuteen perheeseen, mutta hän silti säilyttää yhteyden biologiseen perheeseensä. Aikaisemmat tutkimuksen osoittavat, että pienet lapset useimmiten muodostavat uusia kiintymyssuhteita sijaisperheessään (Cole, 2005). Uusien kiintymyssuhteiden muodostumiseen voivat vaikuttaa monet ulkoiset tekijät, kuten sijasvanhemman käytös (Schofield & Beek, 2008; Dozier et al., 2006), sijaisperheen asenne lapsen biologisia vanhempia kohtaan (Andersson, 2008) ja lapsen ikä sijoituksen alkaessa (Smyke, Zeanah, Fox, Nelson & Guthrie, 2010). On myös tutkittu, että sijaislapsen kiintymystä sijaisperheeseensä voi vahvistaa jatkuva yhteydenpito biologisiin vanhempiin, sen sijaan että se toimisi kiintymystä heikentävänä tekijänä (Haight et al., 2003). Olemassaolevien teorioiden ja sijaisperhetutkimusten lisäksi, kolmen suomalaisen sijaisäidin narratiiveja käytetään apuna vastaamaan tutkimuskysymykseen: ”Miten sijaisäidin ja sijaislapsen välinen kiintymyssuhde kehittyy?” Sijaisäitejä pyydettiin kirjoittamaan heidän suhteestaan sijaislapseen sekä sijoituksen alussa, että tällä hetkellä. Lisäksi heitä pyydettiin arvioimaan millainen suhteensa sijaislapseen olisi tulevaisuudessa. Narratiivit analysoitiin fenomenologisesta näkökulmasta, käyttäen avuksi Giorgin psykologista fenomenologista metodia. Kaikki kolme narratiivia sisältävät tietoa yhteisistä teemoista, kuten lapsen iästä sijoituksen alussa, kiintymyssuhteen muodostumisesta, sekä yhteydenpidosta biologiseen perheeseen. Ne tuovat myös esiin sijaishoidon paradoksaalisen luonteen, sen kuinka sijaisvanhemman tulisi käyttäytyä kuin lapsen oma vanhempi sitä kuitenkaan olematta, ja kuinka tämä vaikuttaa sijaisäitiin henkisesti. Kaikki sijaisäidit myös korostavat lapsen olemassaolevien kiintymyssuhteiden vaikutusta suhteeseensa sijaislapsen kanssa. Sijaisäitien kertomukset antavat jopa viitteitä siihen, että mitä nuorempana lapsi sijoitetaan sijaiskotiin, sitä helpompaa hänelle on muodostaa uusi kiintymyssuhde sijaisäitiin

Abstract:
We develop and estimate a model of child care markets that endogenizes both demand and supply. On the demand side, families with a child make consumption, labor supply, and child-care decisions within a static, unitary household model. On the supply side, child care providers make entry, price, and quality decisions under monopolistic competition. Child development is a function of the time spent with each parent and at the child care center; these inputs vary in their impact. We estimate the structural parameters of the model using the 2003 Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, which contains information on parental employment and wages, child care choices, child development, and center quality. We use our estimates to evaluate the impact of several policies, including vouchers, cash transfers, quality regulations, and public provision. Among these, a combination of quality regulation and vouchers for working families leads to the greatest gains in average child development and to a large expansion in child care use and female labor supply, all at a relatively low fiscal cost.

Abstract:
Although many countries are aggressively implementing the One Laptop per Child (OLPC) program, there is a lack of empirical evidence on its effects. This paper presents the impact of the first large-scale randomized evaluation of the OLPC program, using data collected after 15 months of implementation in 319 primary schools in rural Peru. The results indicate that the program increased the ratio of computers per student from 0.12 to 1.18 in treatment schools. This expansion in access translated into substantial increases in use both at school and at home. No evidence is found of effects on enrollment and test scores in Math and Language. Some positive effects are found, however, in general cognitive skills as measured by Raven's Progressive Matrices, a verbal fluency test and a Coding test.
