Abstract

A set of items characterizing high-quality day care programs were rationally derived from the empirical literature and were presented to both day care experts and mothers of preschool children to obtain their evaluations of each item's operational clarity and face validity. The items were then revised and organized in checklist form in preparation for field testing. The items, along with a global nine-point rating scale of quality, comprise the Parent Guide to Quality Day Care Centers.
