Abstract

AbstractThis study compared Montessori and day care compensatory programs for disadvantaged children. Ss in the treatment programs were compared to a disadvantaged control group and an advantaged middle-class control group on eight tests of cognitive skill and on a composite factor score derived from the eight tests as a single summary index. Analysis indicated that treatment differences existed on six of the nine analyses. Both preschool programs were effective in raising levels of performance beyond those of other disadvantaged Ss and both approached middle class levels of performance, yet the treatment groups did not differ from each other.
