“…In other domains the indices were less than .66. Although unsatisfactory, these results corroborate previous fi ndings in the literature, which indicate poor internal consistency for the EC-HOME (Martins, 2014) and for the other versions of the instrument (Goemans et al, 2014). Furthermore, in general, there were correlations of low to moderate magnitude (according to Dancey & Reidy, 2006) between the domains.…”

“…Such correlations indicate good reliability and little divergence between the scores assigned by the evaluators (Urbina, 2007). These results are similar to fi ndings of Goemans et al (2014), although these authors used the version for children from 6 to 10 years of age, the domains of which are partially similar to the EC-HOME. An exception was observed in the Acceptance domain, in which the calculation of concordance between the evaluators was not carried out because there was no variability in the scores in this domain assigned by one of the evaluators.…”

“…These fi ndings corroborate previous studies, such as Martins et al (2004), in which low correlations were observed between the domains of the HOME, suggesting that the instrument evaluates distinct aspects of the family en- vironment. Accordingly, Goemans et al (2014) stated that there is no evidence of unidimensionality for the HOME, as there is no single latent factor underlying the items. The relationships of the domains with the total in the EC-HOME varied in magnitude.…”

“…The instrument is more than 35 years old and has been studied in several countries (e.g. Bradley, Corwyn, & Whitesid-Mansell, 1996;Cruz, Abreu-Lima, Barros, Costa, & Pacheco, 2011;Glad, Jergeby, Gustafsson, & Sonnander, 2012;Goemans, van Geel, Vedder, & Bradley, 2014), however, in 2003 all the versions of the instrument were reformulated and standardized, with validity and reliability studies being performed. The instrument is available for clinical use and for research and is currently considered the world reference in the evaluation of the family environment (Caldwell & Bradley, 2003).…”

“…Recently, Goemans et al (2014) performed the translation and adaptation of the version of the HOME for children from 6 to 10 years of age, and verifi ed its psychometric properties in a sample of 134 Dutch children. The relationships between the domains of the instrument were in part positive and signifi cant, however, of low magnitude, indicating that the HOME evaluates distinct aspects of the family environment.…”

The Family Environment Assessment: Study of the Use of the EC-HOME in a Brazilian Sample

The family environment may impact child development. However, investigating the family environment in Brazil can be a challenge due to the lack of appropriate instruments. To systematize the study of family environment the Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment Inventory (HOME) was developed. The executive functions (EF), important for the control of thinking, behavior and emotion are among the skills affected by variables of the family environment. This study investigated reliability and validity evidences of the Brazilian Early Childhood version of the HOME (EC-HOME). Participants were 63 preschoolers (M=4.41y, SD=0.66), and their respective families. Children were evaluated in EF tasks. Parents responded to an identifi cation and socioeconomic status (SES) questionnaire. Home visits were conducted to apply the EC-HOME, with independent scoring by two evaluators for 20 of them. There was a high interrater agreement and satisfactory Cronbach's alpha coeffi cient for the total scale. Correlation analysis suggested that the domains of the HOME contain relatively independent contents of the family context. Signifi cant correlations of the HOME domains with SES variables, as well as with children performance in EF tasks, were found. Findings provided some preliminary evidences of validity and reliability of the EC-HOME in a Brazilian sample. Keywords

Foster children’s behavioral development and foster parent stress: testing a transactional model

The goal of this three-wave longitudinal study was to analyze foster parent stress and foster children’s internalizing and externalizing behaviors in a transactional framework. Participants in this study were 237 children in foster care in the Netherlands with, mostly, long placement durations (M = 56.86 months, SD = 49.10 months). We examined concurrent, prospective unidirectional and bidirectional relations between foster children’s behavior and foster parent stress by using cross-lagged structural equation modeling and examined whether the results were stable across different subgroups of foster children. In contrast to our hypothesis, we found no bidirectional relations. There were unidirectional prospective pathways from foster children’s internalizing and externalizing problems to foster parent stress, but no significant prospective pathways from foster parent stress to foster children’s internalizing and externalizing problems. The results were fairly stable across different subgroups of foster children. The lack of bidirectional relations was unexpected given the presence of transactional relations in biological parent-child dyads. Foster parents seem not to influence their foster children when it comes to regulating problem behavior. Therefore, the question is whether foster parents can, in more general terms, help their foster children benefit from their improved home environment.
