negative consequences for young children.1 In particular, the
experience of chronic peer victimization in
early childhood can promote the later development of anxiety and depression.14 Unfortunately, not only are anxious and depressive children more prone to
experience problematic peer relations, they also appear to be particularly vulnerable to the
negative impact of these
experiences.28, 29,30 For example, Gazelle and Ladd31 found that kindergarten children displaying

experiences, media, preschools and community groups.4 Poverty is the key underlying cause of poor child development; children living in poverty are exposed to many
negative influences, including poor physical environments, inadequate nutrition, parental stress and insufficient cognitive stimulation.5 Undernutrition can influence brain development directly by affecting brain structure and function, or indirectly via poor physical or motor development, in addition to other pathways.6 — 8 Exposure to multiple co-occurring risks most likely contributes to greater disparities in developmental trajectories among children with differential exposure.9 — 12 This paper focuses on associations between specific aspects of children's physical environments — access to improved water and sanitation (W&S)-- and
childhood development as measured by performance on a test of receptive language.
