“…Children from classrooms with a lower ratio engaged in more exploratory behaviour than those from classrooms with higher ratios. This result is consistent with those found in other studies which observed better child-teacher interaction (De Shipper et al, 2006) and better verbal (Burchinal et al, 2000) and social competence (Volling & Feagans, 1995) in classrooms with a lower child-caregiver ratio. Therefore, a greater degree of exploratory behaviour, so closely linked to children's cognitive development, can be achieved by reducing the child-caregiver ratio.…”

“…Em vista da relevância do problema da educação infantil, os autores sugerem fortemente um engajamento maior da comunidade científica nacional na investigação dos efeitos da creche, principalmente em uma dimensão não contemplada neste estudo, que é a relativa à sua qualidade, em vista das evidências internacionais sobre o peso desse fator em resultados desenvolvimentais (Belsky, 1992;ClarkeStewart, 1992a;Volling & Feagans, 1995), bem como no bem estar das crianças e famílias.…”

“…This 'people component' of quality has most often been looked at through the influence of structural variables such as ratio, training and staff turnover (Volling & Feagans, 1995;Howes, 1991;Lamb & Sternberg, 1990;Broberg et al, 1989;Whitcbook et al, 1989;Kaplan & Conn, 1984;McCartney, 1984;McCartney et al, 1982;Travers et al, 1980;Ruopp et al, 1979), but attention has also been given to dynamic variables like expressiveness and sensitivity of caregivers with children (Burchinal et al, 1996;Lamb & Sternberg, 1990) Howes & Stewart, 1987Howes, 1983;Clarke-Stewart, 1982;Anderson et al, 1981). There are clearly links between structural and dynamic aspects of quality (Dunn, 1993;Burchinal et al, 1996) but the present study focuses on dynamic aspects.…”
